Quote from article above:
On “Not One Damn Dime Day,” those who oppose what is happening in our name in Iraq can speak up with a 24-hour national boycott of all forms of consumer spending.
Let me give you my best Ann Coulter how-to-talk-to-a-liberal-if-you-must impression:
If you want to make a point, do not think in terms of time. If you need a product or service, you will buy it. It doesn’t matter if it’s the day before or the day after; you will buy it. If you need a roll of TP, you can either put a plug up your ass or use an oak leaf. It doesn’t matter. After either of those two experinces, you will buy a roll of TP. And then, what point have you made?
Let’s put it in another context: If you want to get your power company’s attention, don’t pay your bill one day late - that only hurts you in the end. What you do is turn off the lights and sit in the dark for a whole month (unless you buy a candle.) you turn off the TV for a whole month and guess who got kicked off the island. You turn off the stereo for a whole month and hum those Springsteen songs. And, for Heaven’s sake, you turn off the computer forever - your perception of intelligence is not needed online anyway.
