Here's Another Chance to Walk Your Talk,
and Drive It Too
Sign Up to Drive the Pig Mobile in Florida and Help Hold President Bush Accountable for the Iraq War


The PantsOnFire Mobile-the 12-foot statue of President Bush with his pants aflame- has been a hit, garnering media attention and turning heads across the Eastern seaboard. George is now on his way West to spread the truth about Bush's lies.

Following in his wake is the Pig Mobile, another whimsical art car by your friends at TrueMajority. The Pig Mobile consists of three different-sized piggy banks strung together to illustrate just how big a financial disaster the Iraq War has turned out to be.

The largest pig (by far) shows the financial cost ($200 billion) of America's attack on Iraq, including the projected minimum cost of reconstruction. The smaller pig illustrates how much the federal government spends on K-12 education ($34 billion). And the third pig, which is a wee little pig, shows America's dedication to lessening world hunger and poverty ($10 billion).

These piggies feature an oinking soundtrack and are made of striking pink fiberglass based on a full-sized Chevy van towing a trailer.

Our goal is to keep the mess in Iraq on people's minds and to hold President Bush accountable for it-even if the media does not report the facts on the costs of America's attack on Iraq. And there's no better way to understand the giant numbers involved than to compare them to how little our government finds to spend on stuff we all care about-like schools and world hunger.

The Pig Mobile will be in Florida in June and July. If you'd like to volunteer to take 'em for a spin (the pigs must be driven during the day), or if you have a place to park 30-feet worth of porkers when they're not being driven (space must be available for 1 week), please click here and fill out the little form and we'll hook you up:

Yours in holding Bush accountable, and having fun doing it,

Ben
