Let's face it, guys. The only thing that will change this Repuglican regime is MONEY. When the Pugs' corporate funds dry up, then they'll wake up and smell the kool-aid. Until then, they're fat dogs fouling the societal manger and we have either to lie in the crap or sweep it out. Unless and until we have the financial clout to fight the bastards, we're not going to be heard or heeded.
Of course, the only way to make the funds dry up is NOT TO GIVE THE REPUBLICAN DONORS YOUR MONEY. PERIOD. I pay more and drive farther just because I hate Walmart. If I know the owner of a gas station is a Pug, I go across the street to the other station, even if I lose a buck on my gas. I don't even let the teenage daughters of Repuglicans babysit my kids. I plan carefully so that I can ship via the postal service as much possible. I don't eat fast food. I attend a liberal church. Hell, I don't even buy donuts from the Baptist kids on the street corner raising money for their youth trips. Nope Nope Nope. Won't do it.
And - I take part in every single damn market survey I can, and I tell those people exactly what I think in one-syllable (and occasionally four-letter) words.
There's over 100 million of us out there. Yes, we are a spectrum of values and beliefs. I don't always know exactly what I want, and I don't have firm stands on every single issue. However, I know what I DON'T want. And the rest of us do, too.
So - if you want to stop these guys, stop giving them access to your hard-earned cash at every possible opportunity. Businesses aren't stupid. If they know their policies piss people off and cost them market share and revenue, they'll shape their asses up. And once they do that, we will finally break the Pugs' backs, and we won't need to impeach anyone. All we'll need to do is declassify everything that's been done in Washington since 2001. Once that's done, it'll be a matter for the federal courts, not the Congress. And we'll have to fund a major expansion to Leavenworth. Shoot, I'd pay a buck a day to know that Cheney and Bush were behind bars. I'd pay FIVE a day if they stuck Bush in a cell with a 6'5", 250-pound serial sex offender. Mac in Ga
