A visibility idea...can you help? |
|
We are thinking about doing some visibility up here in NH against the war. Instead of the usual boring yard sign or banner someone suggested doing someting along the lines of the Burma Shave highway ads of the 50's (and well before, I think). I remember those ads as a kid and they attracted all kinds of attention. I found that there is an actual Burma Shave website, Burma-Shave.org, which has all of the jingles. Here is one so that you get the idea of the rhyme and cadence:
Don't lose Your head To gain a minute You need your head Your brains are in it.
If you can come up with any anti war slogans that would fit this idea, I would love to see them!
I'm struggling with this but came up with a few:
We went to war Based on lies and deceit Bringing the troops home Is not a defeat
and
The politicians Keep dragging their feet Send them a message Out of Iraq or Suffer defeat

4. The Western NC Democrats did this in the 06 election... |

I had a set of them up in my yard. They were really popular, I think I saw 4 or 5 different slogans all together, over the course of the campaign season. Here's their website, with some info: http://bluenc.com/node/3170?PHPSESSID=ca494c4ee3670

EVERYTHING we can do. ANYTHING we can do.
It's really up to us. Congress has abdicated its authority to lead us. WE have to lead.
