My friends and I are now putting together a list of people...
to attend Michael Moore's movie and we are paying for their tickets. So far our list is comprised of 10 people and we are thinking about who else to ask to attend. We are really trying to find the people who are most oblivious to what is going on in this country.


I am asking if someone can take a friend or an aquantance or two, so that we can spread the word about what is really going on. Sometimes some people can't umderstand what is really going on and how it is connected to their lives unless they can see it..

1. That is a WONDERFUL idea! I know that you might open some eyes and
turn some people toward the light! :) Ed Schultz said he was a Repub until (I think it was his wife) took him to some homeless shelters. Seeing something, rather than just hearing about it, makes a big difference.

Good on you!! :headbang:

10. Are you guys paying for all these people? Maybe you could put out a call
to get 'sponsors'...

This is so fabulous! Seriously, you'll have to at least book a block of seats!
