Subject: Cancellation Day. Promote it!
Hey there folks!
If you're like me, then I suspect you are just plain sick of business
as usual in Washington, D.C.
Are you disgusted with politicians who steal your hard earned cash
and then squandering it on high priced hookers, mistresses, fleets
of new limousines, the study of cow flatulence, and bridges to
nowhere, while refusing to balance their own budget, leaving you
on the hook for their 14 trillion dollar mess?
Are you weary of having to continually fight for your rights to
life, liberty and property, while they are being violated by those
very people who have been charged with protecting them?
Are you fed up with the totalitarian elites who believe that they
can ram their policies down your throats without your consent or
approval, and do so with a total disregard for the U.S.
Constitution?
Does it fill you with rage to see your savings and investments
dwindle away as the government prints its "funny money" and
doles it out to favored friends with political pull, while at the
same time using the tax laws to manipulate people into behavior
that they would not choose, left to their own devices?
Have you had enough of the socialistic nationalization of our
financial, energy, utility, automotive and medical industries?
Are you infuriated about being forced to use low-flow shower heads,
non-flushing toilets and the coming loss of your incandescent light
bulbs?
Do you reach for the pitch fork every time someone says that you
are not paying your fair share of taxes?
If this sounds like you, then don't just stew about it. Instead, get
up and take action! There are sixteen month between today and November
6th, 2012. That's 518 days available to effect real change. During
that time there are many things needing to be accomplished, but here
is a simple marketing effort in which we can all participate, hopefully
resulting in some real impact.
Recently, I was reminded of the title of one of Steely Dan's albums:
|
|
Everything Must Go
|
This is the perfect anthem for the coming election! It is time to
mount the Herculean effort to clear the political stables of all
manner of human waste that has accumulated over time. We did a bit
of housekeeping in 2010, which was a good start, but has proven to
be inadequate in effecting any real change. So now, the philosophy
must be that so far as Washington is concerned, "Everything
Must Go!"
From that album, the song, "The Last Mall" opens with the
stanza:
Attention all shoppers
It's Cancellation Day
Yes the Big Adios
Is just a few hours away
That sums it up for me!
Marketing teaches us that how we label a thing goes a long way in
helping to to sell it. To get across the message that a real and
substantial change is coming, I suggest that we make every effort
to spread the message that we are not approaching November 6, 2012
as just another typical Election Day, but see it as:
|
Cancellation Day:
|
|
The moment when all career politicians are summarily
dismissed for past, unacceptably bad behavior.
|
So put this date on your calendars and then help spread the word.
Let's do everything we can to inject "Cancellation Day"
into the political dialog, promoting November 6, 2012 as our new
national holiday honoring all patriots who fight on for renewed
liberty, the restoration of individual rights, and a proper,
constitutionally limited government in the tradition of a true
republic!
I encourage you to run with this idea, making it your own in any
creative way you see fit. If you would like to use the above image
for your own purpose, you can access the large version by clicking

this page, by clicking

If you are interested in adding the small image to your website, with
a link back to this article, then all you need to do is include the
following code in an appropriate location on your web page:
<A href="http://smallthoughts.com/blog/permalink/0161.html">
<IMG src="http://smallthoughts.com/blog/images/cancellation2.jpg"
alt="Cancellation Day"
title="Cancellation Day"></A>
I hope you find this idea compelling, and I appreciate any effort
you are willing to make promoting it to others. Now let's get out
there and make sure that the shelves of liberty have been restocked
come November 7th, 2012!
