• Inauguration Day, Silent Protest
  
  Since our religious leaders will not speak out against the war in
  Iraq, since our political leaders don't have the moral courage to
  oppose it, Inauguration Day, Thursday, January 20th, 2005 is "Not One
  Damn Dime Day" in America.
  
  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.
  
  During "Not One Damn Dime Day" please don't spend money. Not one damn
  dime for gasoline. Not one damn dime for necessities or for impulse
  purchases. Not one damn dime for anything for 24 hours.
  
  For 24 hours, please do what you can to shut the retail economy down.
  The object is simple. Remind the people in power that the war in Iraq
  is immoral and illegal; that they are responsible for starting it and
  that it is their responsibility to stop it.
  
  "Not One Damn Dime Day" is to remind them, too, that they work for the
  people of the United States of America, not for the international
  corporations and K Street lobbyists who represent the corporations and
  funnel cash into American politics.
  
  There's no rally to attend. No marching to do. No left or right wing
  agenda to rant about. On "Not One Damn Dime Day" you take action by
  doing nothing. You open your mouth by keeping your wallet closed. For
  24 hours, nothing gets spent, not one damn dime, to remind our
  religious leaders and our politicians of their moral responsibility to
  end the war in Iraq and give America back to the people.
  
  Please share this email with as many people as possible. --
