VOTE...not one damned dime
I changed my TSC ad to a black square. Let's vote it to the top, knock the Bush lovers out!

2. Thanks.
And a kick.

To those who think the whole NODDD is a silly protest...aren't ALL protests short of outright armed revolution "silly?" Isn't carrying a funny slogan at the end of a stick silly? Isn't wearing a blue bracelet silly?

No one I know has any pretense that not shopping today will bring down the government. But this is a corporate-controlled Mall-mentality government, whose best advice to us while the nation was supposedly under seige was to display an orange square and say "Go shopping!"

That's a bit silly, too.

Symbols are just that -- symbols. I couldn't make it to DC to carry a funny saying at the end of a stick, or turn my back on a passing car 200 yards away, or whatever. This is just a symbol of my disgust, and I know many others share it. It'd be nice if the democratic party showed some unity on something, just once. While we infight and tell each other we're silly, the republicans are watching us, marching in lockstep and kicking our asses. So forgive me...I'll be silly today.

It's either that or I'll just give up caring. And I'm not ready to do that!

(BTW, above my silly black square are ads that say "Backhanding the left into submission" and "Piss on Liberals." If they can send that message, why can't we send our silly message?
