2. Is there anyway we can go a little less time.. |
|
i have a feeling that I couldn't do it all the time.. but if it was more like a fasting.. and only eating certain times.. I would certainly enter in.. Can we set any guidelines for say a War Fast.. Don't eat until Sundown or something like that (only water during the day)?

6. No, no, come on; I know you mean well, but for Christ's sake, if bush |
|
can ignore the millions of protestors three years ago, what on earth would make you think he'd be swayed by people not eating until it got dark?
Again, good intentions, but utterly wasted effort.

9. Yes. Starving yourself isn't going to do a damn thing. |
|
Actually I think that Cindy starving herself isn't going to accomplish anything either.

10. We could ALL do it, and bushyboy wouldn't give a rat's ass. |
|
So it's a non-starter.

4. Two months will be fatal to most people |
|
After two weeks or so, your body starts digesting muscle for fuel, including heart muscle. After a month or so you start to lose functions like vision.
Maybe you meant to say two weeks. That's entirely doable and most people can survive it quite well, although anorexics and bulemics should pass.

11. I entered my support at CodePink.... |

Ya'll do what you want.. I think the more people involved showing the world that we are willing to sacrafice something tangable, it looks real. Do what is right for yourself, but I think more people should be willing to sacrafice for a cause.. How do you think women won the right to vote. Protest, hunger strikes etc.
