THE CARTOONS: Become Republican
Frighteningly funny cartoons on how a liberal can turn into a republican
AT: http://www.thefrown.com/things/becomerepublican


Drop and give me 20! If today's policies don't change, the young adults of today just might get drafted. Hear George W. Bush spit it to you in this parody of "P.I.M.P." by 50 Cent.

CENSORED WEBSITE OF THE WEEK: Walmart Foundation Parody
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. believes each Wal-Mart store, SAM'S CLUB and distribution center has a responsibility to contribute to the destruction of wasteful local businesses in favor of bland yet efficient multinationals. Our more than 3,500 locations are well on our way to achieving this goal.

THE QUOTE:
"I'm no lady, I'm a hell-raiser! I live in the United States, but I do not know exactly where. My address is wherever there is a fight against oppression. My address is like my shoes; it travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong."
- - Mother Jones


THE HISTORY: May 1st

1830 -- Mother Jones (born Mary Harris) is born in Cork, Ireland. The Irish-American anti-war activist and renowned Labor organizer lived to be 100-years old.
1971 -- Beginning of 5 days of anti-Vietnam War May Day protests in Washington, D.C., resulting in over 14,000 arrests "the largest mass civil disobedience in US history".

RHINO HERE:
Rhino sez, Do yourself a favor. In about a week cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies. You will likely start receiving sales calls to your cell phones which will eat up your minutes, UNLESS you call this number from your cell phone 888-382-1222 or register on-line at http://www.donotcall.gov.

In fact, if you haven't registered your land lines on the Do Not Call list, you can do that too at the web site. It only takes a minute of your time and it will block your number for 5 years.
