Stephen King endorses Not One Damn Dime Day
I always liked this guy.

From his website www.stephenking.com


In addition to being Inauguration Day, January 20th is Not One Damn Dime Day. This is a chance for those who oppose what is happening in our name in Iraq to speak up with a 24-hour national boycott in all forms of consumer spending. Even if you are one of those who approve of our actions in Iraq, where the American death toll continues to rise to the number of Americans lost in the World Trade Center disaster, Not One Damn Dime Day is your chance to protest the bloated cost of President Bush’s Inauguration ceremonies, which are now estimated in the $40 million range. I think even fiscal conservatives and die-hard Republicans would agree, this is a shameful amount of money to spend on a party when children are dying in Indonesia. I don’t intend to spend a damn cent on January 20th, let alone a damn dime. I urge you to do the same and I urge you to pass this message along to everyone on your email list.

With links to the petition.

1. I didn't sign up for this
I'll have to spend money on the metro if I go to the protest. I also will want to duck into Teaism for a warm cup and some bathroom use.

2. I say, 'You're excused.'
Because I am unable to go to the protest, I'm participating. Do us proud at the protest - and post pictures!
