7. What if the timeout is an economic timeout???
I have been writing about this for months. I have been suggesting to only buyblue, to buy locally, or not buy at all. We have 58 million people on our side. Why don't we timeout of consuming - nothing but what is absolutely necessary??? Send a message to Bush, to congress, to the dems as well - if we no longer participate in being a part of the mass consumerism society, our voices will be heard.

There are lots of ways to do this that don't hurt your local economy, that, in fact, help your local economy. We can do this, but we need a voice. We need a protest, and a protest month.

Ideas???
