Who funds "The World Can't Wait"?

[Eric J in MN]

I'm wondering how they afford so many ads on "Air America" saying "The world can't wait to throw out the Bush regime."

[devilgrrl]

1. I'd like to know who funds A.N.S.W.E.R.

eom

[htuttle]

3. Chinese communists, aliens and vampires!

...or, maybe they fund it just like any US church? The passing-of-the-donation-buckets is an expected ritual at all the ANSWER rallies I've seen or been to.

[whistle]

2. Looks like private citizens, students, sponsors and endorsers...

From the Kalamazoo WCW website - this is the top thing on their site at the moment:

"Call for Donations for New Orleans:
I'm driving down to New Orleans next week to do some politcal work and get a feel for what the city is like over a year since Katrina hit and the federal government left people to die there. By all accounts most poor neighborhoods are still a disaster area and the people really need some help. Since I'm going, I thought I should fill my van with whatever people can spare to help out those trying to live in New Orleans. My goal is to deliver as much aid as possible to the Common Ground Women's Center. They need food, cleaning supplies, hygiene stuff, and other basic necessities. Anything you can give will be appriciated. I'll take as much as will fit and still leave me a little space to sleep. Drop things off at 822 Pioneer St or write back if you have questions. I'm leaving the morning of Dec 26th. I could also use a video camera if anyone will let me borrow one. Have a great Xmas and remember those who may not."

Obviously a sinister bunch. :eyes:

8. MoveOn has 3 million email addresses,

...and so it's easier to understand how they can raise money for advertising.

4. Boris & Natasha, Dahlink. But, of course...

PS: to my 'friend' in Moscow. I'm still waiting for the check for the April Mobilization Against the War '68.

5. People with more dollars than sense

6. Probably those much closer to caring for their fellow humans than

whoever it is that funds the BFEE and similarly ethically challenged power elites.
