Flood the White House with Moving Boxes!! The GW Bush Moving Box Action
Edited on Tue Jun-26-07 02:04 PM by Hapameli
This event was started by the Orange County/South Bay Chapter of Military Families Speak Out (MFSO). www.mfsooc.org

We got great coverage from the LA Fox 11 News and we're hoping this action will spread throughout the country. We've already heard there are other cities doing this! Please watch this video, to see how we did this and to learn how you can help BUSH MOVE OUT!!

Edited to add this from MFSO-OC's Myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/ocmfso) and there are more pictures... will post the FOX News coverage when we get a copy!


A political event organized by the local Military Families Speak Out! was covered by Fox News yesterday as 26 activists marched into the local post office with moving boxes.. We gathered outside this official branch of the U.S. Government and mailed moving boxes to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20050 (address of the White House). We included personal messages written next to the address to convey our wide array of thoughts on the current president's performance. Mine was rather positive "Good Luck! Enjoy your early retirement at Crawford" but others laid out the deep anger we all feel at Bush's culpabillity for killing 3556 soldiers needlessly and rising daily. His approval rating now stands at 26%; Congress is at 25% (Newsweek). How low can you go (can it go to negative numbers?). These moving boxes will arrive at the White House en masse from all parts of the country and be delivered to some hapless worker. Along the way, U.S. Post Office workers will find themselves reading these heartfelt messages and perhaps begin to think of the war in a different way. The bottomline is we must protect the U.S. Constritution and impeach this war criminal. Check out the pictures and organize an action in your community:

1. If I thought it would make it through the Post Office here,
I'd send him one from Canada, and ask him to take Cheney, Rove, and Gonzales with him.

let me be the first to kick and recommend!
