World Can't Wait/Drime out the Bush Regime NY Times ad tody looks GREAT!
It's on A18 (of the national edition, anyway), looking ominous and powerful. Let's make their investment in this worthwhile. Hit the streets tomorrow and let's get the ball rolling on the end of this sorry ass chapter in our history.

For a list of tomorrow's protests, marches and civil disobedience nationwide, go to: http://worldcantwait.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2418&Itemid=232&_event=14

3. Related poem:
Ensler, Eve - Fire His Ass | Print | E-mail





This poem was written by Eve Ensler (08/31/2005)
Since GEORGE BUSH really got in power by corporate take over and not election. Since he has behaved like a CEO of a huge corporation called U.S.A. supporting profit in all cases over human interests, we should treat him the way they would treat him in any corporation and

FIRE HIS ASS

When you start with a major surplus and end up with a huge huge deficit they

FIRE YOUR ASS

When you fail to move a company forward, they

FIRE YOUR ASS

When you are lazy and take vacations at a time of peril, they

FIRE YOUR LAZY ASS

When you don't prepare for terrible outcomes and then lose thousands of lives and insane amounts of money they

FIRE YOUR ASS

When you lie to your stockholders and board and then spend nearly 1.3 trillion dollars and kill hundreds of thousands of people for no reason that makes sense to anyone, they

FIRE YOUR ASS

Sometimes they even put you in prison.

When you openly practice racist policies whether they want to or not, they

FIRE YOUR ASS

When you openly break the law, order torture and get caught they

FIRE YOUR ASS

When you hire people who are ignorant and incompetent, they

FIRE YOUR ASS

When you destroy the brand of a company
and alienate potential buyers all over the world, they

FIRE YOUR ASS

We are the shareholders of the U.S.A.
Bush has bankrupted our company, our pocketbooks,
but mainly our soul.
We need to remove this president and his staff
and we need to do it now.

FIRE HIS ASS.
