feed the lamb/ starve the beast for the holidays, who can start a web site

[bettyellen]

i am frantically trying to pull together all the resources i've seen here, cross posting and bookmarking like crazy. i am so weak on the format end, but am trying to get some momentum here and for xmas offer shopping alternatives easily via email +/or web site. i am afraid when it's compiled it'll be too big to post, i don't know how to get anything up on the web either.

basically i think something that includes progressive and dem funding alternatives to repug supporters, organized as a do and don't list maybe?
x mas is the biggest season, and the news carries shopping stats all the time during the holiday season, why not this story - we can make an impacyt now!!... lets get this together in time for an email to go around the nation asap.

here is my list of threads i have found so far:

1. Links not working

I get Page Cannot Be Displayed on the first two.

Perhaps you could request folks to PM you with links. To make it simple, you could ask that the title tell what kind of link it is, ie:
Progressive Businesses
Democratic/Repug Alternatives& Resources

5. Join CoOp America at:

A boycott site

And think about how boycotts against apartheid in South Africa took time, but did create the change.
