"BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW" CAR MAGNETS
"BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW" CAR MAGNETS
NOW AVAILABLE FROM UNITED FOR PEACE AND JUSTICE
http://www.unitedforpeace.org/merchandise

All over the country, everywhere you go, people are displaying "Support the Troops" magnets on their automobiles. At United for Peace and Justice, we believe the best way to support the troops is to bring an end to the unjust, unnecessary, and disastrous war in Iraq. So we've created our own version of the yellow ribbon car magnet, with a highly visible peace sign and the slogan, "Bring the Troops Home Now!" These affordably priced 8-inch magnets will adhere to any metal surface, whether that be your car, your refrigerator, or your school or gym locker. Buy several and share them with your friends - they make great gifts.

To order, visit http://www.unitedforpeace.org/merchandise
The magnets are $3 each, with discounts available for orders of 10 or more.

1. I've always wondered about these magnets....
I'm assuming they were made in the USA, since I see so many of them.

2. Sounds like a good idea...
...but, will we see a class action lawsuit brought about by owners of foreign-made hybrid vehicles charging that these magnets destroyed their electric motors or ruined their paint jobs?

Don't mind me, I think it's a good idea-- in fact, I've seen several of these here around Madison, WI already.

4. I went to the checkout
to buy one and got a message saying there was a problem with the site's security certificate. What's that all about??

10. I hafta confess
I recently took a few, "starter magnets" off a few
large expensive gas guzzlers. Got home and took an
indelible marker and wrote,BRING THEM HOME on the
blank yellow portion. Now I make a switch whenever
I see a ribbon ready for the taking. Feel like Robinhood.
