NATIONAL WALKOUT DAY

MAY 1, 2002

If you're fed up with the slew of disasters America's suffered since George W. Bush and his cohorts stole the Presidency;

If you think it's insane to threaten war against 15 countries, make plans to nuke seven countries, and surround the Earth with orbiting nuclear weapons platforms;

If you're outraged that a "shadow government" is now running the country from secret underground bunkers, like some evil genius in a James Bond movie;

If you're horrified by the McCarthy-like police-state powers the government has granted itself under the USA PATRIOT Act, and shocked that a Contragate criminal, John Poindexter, has been put in charge of monitoring our e-mail and tracking our Website visits;

If you're revolted by Attorney General Ashcroft urging you to spy on your neighbors, and sick of being told that questioning the "War on Terror" is unpatriotic;

If you're disgusted that corrupt corporate executives have been plotting how to gut environmental protections in secret meetings with the vice president:

*******Then send a peaceful, powerful message -- join in the National Walkout Day, Wednesday, May 1st, 2002.******

Call in sick to work. Don't spend any money, don't pay any bills that day. Instead, dance around a maypole, enjoy a picnic or a party, march in the streets, or find your own sane and peaceful way to refuse to participate
in this out-of-control regime. Show them that you're still free.

Please forward this message to everyone you can. Post it on Websites and bulletin boards. Spread it around the world.

If your fed up with drivel go to work like everyone else

Excuse me, <font color="silver">Alexander</font>?

But exactly HOW will laying out of work send a message to President Bush?

Oh yeah, could you also provide a list of the "slew of disasters" that have occurred since President Bush came into office?

I'm afraid I may have missed a few of them.

I knew I'd get flak for this - but hopefully the message will get through. Keep in mind that I didn't create this.

Cerek, what good things has President Bush done while in office (particularly after 9/11) that any other president wouldn't do?
