Hand out "ImpeachMINTS" on Halloween

There's a lot to be afraid of this Halloween besides miniature witches, ghosts, and goblins. The “resident Jason” in the White House is shredding our Constitution, the “Vice ghoul” is preparing to attack Iran, and their “corporate crones” in the telecom industry are about to get a free pass to wiretap innocent Americans. And, that's not the half of it.

Send a message to the parents of trick-or-treaters by stuffing their candy sacks with ImpeachMINTS. It's not too late to bring these “neo-monsters” to justice for lying us into war and operating outside the rule of law.

The PDA Store has special pricing for Halloween (100 for $15.00, 200 for $25) and will deliver your order through the US Postal Service. 100-200 ImpeachMINTS can fit into one Flat Rate Priority Mail Envelope for 2-3 day delivery for $6.25--Express Mail Envelope with guaranteed overnight delivery costs $16.25.

Order your ImpeahMINTS, now.

https://www.pdamerica.org/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=100

or

https://www.pdamerica.org/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=106

(If you've never made a purchase from the PDA store, you must register at the store before placing your order.)

I couldn't be at the rally, so felt sorry for myself and did some online shopping.

3. Is that what you would have wanted when you were a kid?
They'll probably be thrown straight in the trash.

11. LOL! My point is that you'd support a great organization - so what if they get tossed out - or don't
give them to kids - plenty of "adult" halloween parties around.

4. Honestly, I'd be a little irritated if someone tried to politicize my kid's halloween candy.
Get a lawn sign, and hand out real candy, instead. Your neighbors will appreciate it far more.

20. Gotcha.
I don't think kids tend to like mints much, anyway. :thumbsup:

10. There are certain things that shouldn't be politicized
Edited on Sat Oct-27-07 01:17 PM by tammywammy
I'd be pissed if someone gave a child a religious pamphlet, and I'd be equally as pissed if they were handing out impeachMINTS.

Put out a sign and hand out regular candy.

edited to add: But if you're giving them out to adults, then that would be okay.

14. Who said anything about children?
:)

Sometimes I wonder who eats more candy on Hallowe'en, kids or grown ups.

I'm going to set them out at my local Mom n Pop store where the adult clientele will love them as much as the owner will.

17. I edited my post to reflect that
I just always equate Halloween candy with children. :)

This is reminding me that I need to pick up candy for my boyfriend to hand out for Halloween. He's going to sit out front dressed up and give it out while I'm at work.
