Marketing and Boycotting South Dakota

[sarahlee]

Dood Abides created a satire diary at Kos titled: "South Dakota Governor Rounds Announces PR Blitz to Combat Tourism"
but there are some great ideas in it.

A few snippets from the comments:

South Dakota motels have been instructed to offer complimentary coathangers to guests, wrapped in sterile paper.

"It's a sign of our welcoming hospitality," Rounds said, adding that "they always come in handy in a pinch."

The biggest tourist event in SD all year is the Sturgis motorcycle rally. It would be great if we could do a webpage about the SD boycott that came up as one of the top 10 hits when someone googles about this years' upcoming Sturgis rally.

What happens in Dakota, stays in the uterus until birth.

or

South Dakota. . . Come For The Rape. Stay For The Incest!

New state seal:

Now all the GOP needs is for Diebold to perfect the IUED, the Intra-Uterine Election Device, with the Repug Congress sponsoring legislation giving the unborn the right to vote.
I can just hear the Pre-natal attack ads, "Hillary Clinton thinks you should be killed, just for being conceived when your mother was on Spring Break in Ft. Lauderdale, but John McCain is fighting for your right to be born to an unwed teenage mother who will have to drop out of college to raise you. John McCain loves you, Cootchie Cootchie Coo"
paid for by unborn citizens for truth - a group in no way affiliated with John McCain.

Each SD woman will receive a complimentary Thighmaster, making her legs stronger so she can keep her knees together to prevent unwanted pregnancy.

South Dakota: You Call It Rape, We Call It God's Miracle
South Dakota: Saudi Arabia Minus The Oil
South Dakota: Many More Wire Hangers
South Dakota: Don't just love your daughter. Love your daughter.
South Dakota: Building The Bridge To The 19th Century
South Dakota: Women. . . The Other White Meat
South Dakota: Letting God Do The Work Of Fully-Qualified Medical Professionals Since 2006
South Dakota: We're Grrrrrrr-rape!
South Dakota: Say "No!" All You Want, But Deep Down We Know You Really Want It
South Dakota: The Uterus Bar-Coding Capital Of America
South Dakota: The Conservative Kansas
South Dakota: Come For The Adventure. Stay For The Incest!

How bout a requirement that all SD TV ads contain a 10% airtime requirement informing the consumer that they will be entering a reproductive rights free zone?

I know that you all can come up with more and better ideas.
