[helderheid]

The mods moved this but it belongs here as it is in regards to the 2004 election. Here is my original post and the responses:

Ebay auction for a guy to put your logo on his head for 30 days - E-fraud


... URL on his head? How many DUers are concerned about e-fraud? Could we all donate a buck and have this guy put our URL on his forehead? He's gotten worldwide press about his doing this and whomever wins the bid will no doubt get the same WORLDWIDE press.

It's a hairbrained suggestion I know but hell, crazier things have worked!

5. yea.. that's why I was wondering how many DUers

were active on this cause. 22k donating $2 doubles the bid. Of course, there are logistics of the whole thing to consider as far as getting the money together. Still, I'd LOVE to stick it to the media!!

6. OOH


We could start a website called www.themediasucks.com and post all the news on the fraud and Jan 6 on that site - you'd get republicans on the site too who still believe in that liberal media crap.

1. nudge

[smartvoter]

2. What the hell. Count me in for $20. nt

[helderheid]

3. Great!

Any ideas on how many here (I'm sure we're in the thousands) are convinced the 2004 election was stolen and would donate a buck or 2?

[smartvoter]

4. Let's keep this kicked to see what happens... nt

[helderheid]

5. Last I saw

22,000 bucks

If there are at least as many here willing to donate 2 bucks, we double the bid and stick it to the media.

[smartvoter]

6. Wow. I didn't realize it was that high. nt

[Der Blaue Engel]

9. It's a unique and not altogether wacky idea

But we couldn't even get $1,000 for roses for Congress in a week.

Maybe if this guy does well, though, others will follow, and we'd have more time.

7. less than 24 hrs. left on the auction........nt

[smartvoter]

8. Even if we could cough enough up (big ?), there's no way in that time. nt

[helderheid]

10. not unless

(and I feel so dumb for not thinking about this before) we had people at Air America Radio donate, or celebs - we just need to let them know in time and why in time. Randi Rhodes raised a ton of money for blackboxvoting.org in 24 hours. We can do this if we contact the right people!

12. hell, I would do it for so much money

:-) but, do we know he is not going to just sit at home for 30 days counting the money?

[ET Awful]

13. Look at the Q&A at the bottom of the auction. . .

the guy's a dittohead. He'd most likely try to find a way to weasel out of it.

[helderheid]

15. aw man

That makes it even better! LMAO!

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

14. It's up to $22,400!!!! roflmao!!!
