Blood for Oil
Red Cross Offering Gas For Blood
Lucky Winner Will Get $3,500 In Gasoline

POSTED: 8:43 am CDT June 6, 2007

PHILADELPHIA -- American Red Cross officials are offering the chance to win free gasoline as an incentive to get more Pennsylvania and New Jersey residents to donate blood.

This summer, each donor will automatically be entered in a drawing to win $3,500 worth of gasoline. Entries for the first drawing, July 23, are already being accepted. An identical raffle will start July 23 and run through Sept. 16.

Every day, the Red Cross also will award a $25 gas card to a randomly selected donor

I wonder where they got the idea for this?

1. The same thing ran through my mind when I saw this on Raw.
Someone at the Red Cross is following current events.

3. The Red Cross should link the reward to the number of dead
On June 8, the dead was about 3500

The Red Cross was offering $3500
If they offered a $1 for each dead, the cost of this war for oil would be at the for front of everyone's mind. Our troops would be home by the end of the month.
