SCORE!!!

[Sugar Smack]

Someone I know gave this to me today. Regardless of whether you believe in MIHOP or LIHOP or neither one, you have to admit a LOT of work went into this. The details in it are amazing.

[cynatnite]

1. WOW!!!!!!

I'm speechless!

K & R

[Sugar Smack]

2. I was so damned impressed!

Do you see the letters "CIA" printed into 9-11 on the back side? Thanks for the K&R. I'm going to try to find out who did this!

[cynatnite]

5. I'd love to get something more detailed.

Some of it's hard to read.

This is just incredible!

[Sugar Smack]

16. Here you go- this may be clearer-

I scanned my copy and this is from the website:

[electropop]

3. They were handing those out at the Sept 24th rally in DC.

I have 2 of 'em. Maybe I should put 'em on e-bay. ;-)

[Sugar Smack]

6. Neat! The person who gave me this was there and so was I.

I wish I had two of them. I'd get a really nice frame for it and even do my own matting.

Cheers! :toast:

[Kire]

65. I saw them at my first Dean meetup

September 2003

[1956]

4. Touche!

I love that smirk!

[Sugar Smack]

22. It's his classic constipated look.

:hi: :thumbsup: Hey, welcome to DU!! Are you liking it?

[acmejack]

7. Here is the link to them!

[Sugar Smack]

9. OMG! How can I thank you for that link??

It's pure gold:

11. Congressman Jim McDermott presented these to congress

http://www.deceptiondollar.com/news/DeceptionDollarsCongress.htm

[leftstreet]

21. Jim rocks!

Just a great straight-talker in that speech, as always.

Now, when you think about that, this Rubber Stamp Congress never says no to this President. It is a failed policy, with the same people in charge today that got us in the mess. Oh, they have rearranged the deck chairs on the Titanic. Ms. Rice is now in charge. She sort of elbowed Colin Powell off to one side, and Mr. Rumsfeld off to the other side, and she is running in and telling Mr. Bremer what to do, the Viceroy we appointed over there to run this place.

We cannot touch those tax cuts. Oh, no, we gave that money to the rich people, and, I do not know, they are doing something with it somewhere. They are not making jobs. We have got no jobs in this country. But we are printing money. The presses are running like mad printing this money to send over to Iraq.

We are going to send them 80 pickup trucks at $2.6 million. That is $33,000 apiece. That is a pretty good pickup truck. You can get a pickup truck for under $20,000 right now. But, no, we have to send them the $33,000 brand.

[Sugar Smack]

23. That is SUCH a good piece.

:applause:

[Sugar Smack]

36. I love it.

Thank you. I learn so much on this site.

[Sugar Smack]

12. And for the third-

[Sydnie]

8. I got one at a Kerry Rally in NH just before the election too

Acutally, I got two and gave one to my son. It's sitting here on my desk and has been since I came home that day. Amazing, isn't it?

[Sugar Smack]

24. I have to order some, because they're too good.

Mine is on top of my scanner as we speak. :)

[Sugar Smack]

61. By the way, the song thread in your journal?

:yourock:

I LOVE IT!

[Sydnie]

88. thanks!

I have done a few of those when the spirit moves me. I should find the others and add them too, huh?

:hug: I needed that more than you will EVER know.

[npincus]

10. order them here: LINK

http://www.peaceproject.com/dollars/911truth.htm

[Sugar Smack]

31. Thank you so much for that link, npincus .

:yourock: I'll check it out in further detail!!

[BrklynLiberal]

13. Excellent piece of work.

[Sugar Smack]

33. LOL! I'm getting inspired to work harder

on my own graphic design.

[lonestarnot]

14. fantastic for flyering! Need to get some. Do you know where?

19. Got it! Ordering Deception dollars, Corporate Media Dollars,

and election deception dollars! Wooodamnwhoooo!

[Sugar Smack]

35. Oh, so am I.

I studied my copy of this for 20 minutes.

[slay]

17. WOW

Very nice indeed. Lots of good websites placed all around the bill too.

[Sugar Smack]

29. I'm checking those.

The person who gave this to me didn't know me but for a few conversations. We talked about the weather, then we talked about the global warming, then we talked about what else was going on in the world. I felt SUCH a RUSH!!!!

[slay]

66. I especially like the "Election Deception" dollar.

It's always nice to discover a fellow decent human being out there. :)

[helderheid]

18. HOLY MOLY!

[lonestarnot]

20. Aren't these great!???

When I was in D.C., the Billionaires for bushitler were handing out huge bills like these.

[Sugar Smack]

25. I WISH we'd stopped where Billionaires for Bush were!

Those people are truly funny. I would have loved to talk with some of them.

[lonestarnot]

41. One of the ladies commented that I should join them, that I

must be a billionaire because I had sparkley sunglasses. Cracked me up. I was somewhere in the middle until I lagged behind and was dancing with the dancing turds, remember them?

[Sugar Smack]

50. *snort* LOL!

Dammit, I missed the dancing turds. Wasn't that day a total blast? Remember shouting "LIAR" at the WH?

[Hekate]

71. Yes, that moment was great. "Liar! liar! liar!"

I was with a friend who was about to retire from the civil service -- in complete disgust, I might add. She found the whole march pretty liberating.

Hekate

[Sugar Smack]

78. That one aspect of the march was one of the most powerful

things I have ever experienced. The waves of people standing still for a moment. We were all so in synch with each other, you could hear the silence between our shouts. And whereas before we'd been chanting, this time we were screaming at the top of our lungs.

[lonestarnot]

76. A day I will never forget!

Yes and 'bushitler is a serial killer' LIAR LIAR LIAR

[Blue_In_AK]

86. I loved them...

[Sugar Smack]

92. OH, they have REAL class!!!!

:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

[rzemanfl]

26. These things need to be printed in the thousands and dropped

one by one in shopping center parking lots, stores, gas stations.

[Sugar Smack]

27. I'd love to be the one to do it.

In fact, I'm checking into it now. I'm about to go thank the brilliant person who designed these. Hey, do you suppose they could do an "oil" one to stick onto gasoline pumps? Maybe I'll bring it up in their website!

[sojourner]

28. way back, in 2003, my SO got me one of those on a visit to Santa Cruz!

It is way cool! I'd forgotten about it....

[Sugar Smack]

30. I'm ordering some, but I'm keeping my "first one"

FOREVER!!!

:patriot:

[northofdenali]

32. Paying your Mastercard bill with Deception Dollars -

Priceless!!

K&R

[Sugar Smack]

34. That talent is flooring me.

If I could work with people like that day after day I would be as happy as a damn clam! :)

[northofdenali]

39. No doubt! I've already forwarded this to 10 more folks! n/t

[Sugar Smack]

40. I'm going to do the same! Hehe. I'm glad

to have been the lucky recipients of one of those. It made my day a LOT better.

[Minnesota Libra]

37. That is so cool - I write messages on my money all the time nt

[Sugar Smack]

38. What do you write?

I have a good book by Douglass Coupland that describes some good things to write on money.

[Minnesota Libra]

55. What is the name of the book you have - I'd like to get one because.......

....so far I've just written stuff like "Bush made 9/11 happen", "your government has turned on you", and such stuff as that.

I'm serious though, what is the name of the book you have??

[Sugar Smack]

59. It's fiction- it's called "Shampoo Planet"

but it was in the cuddly nineties, so the messages would never be as hard-hitting.

:D I like yours. Check it out, but do your own! :yourock:

[guinivere]

42. Just fabulous! Thanks for posting these. nt

[Sugar Smack]

44. Hey, I'm happy to!

Enjoy. :toast:

[glitch]

43. Wow! nice work. nt

[Alamom]

45. I guess you would go to jail if you used them to pay income tax ,

or disappear....... :hide:

They are great.

[Sugar Smack]

47. BWAHAHA!!

You are mischevious. I like it! :evilgrin:

[Lorien]

46. Deception dollars have been around for about four years

I think the Rumfeld and Cheney heads are new, though.

[Sugar Smack]

48. See? I had NO IDEA!!

So when I saw this for the first time today, I went wild.

Kudos to you, Lorien, for fostering cats :toast: btw!

[Hekate]

72. I have a couple of friends who give them away a lot

One guy I know does tabling for the Greens at the local farmers' market and "sells" them for donations.

I never knew where they got them before this, though.

Hekate

[mdmc]

49. did you ever find your interactive art site?

>

[Sugar Smack]

51. No, dang it all.

I have been checking the archives, because I KNOW that post was somewhere in it. ARGH! Double-dang!

*anyway* how are you? :)

[mdmc]

52. i'm fine thanks...

let me see if I can find that link for you... I think that I posted it here or at least clicked on the op. Peace

[Sugar Smack]

56. Good! You are too kind.

:)

[no name no slogan]

53. K'd & R'd

:loveya:

[Sugar Smack]

54. Hey. *slinks against countertop* How you doin'?

*arranges self* Do you come here often?

Would you like to talk about fake money? I can talk about anything. Plus, I'm a good listener.

:rofl:

[nonconformist]

57. Nice! nt

[TexasLawyer]

58. I buy these by the box

of 4,000. I hand them out to everyone and leave them around grocery stores, parking lots, shopping malls, etc...

It's the best kind of handbill/flyer because everyone thinks it's money and will dive for it.

[Sugar Smack]

60. LOL!!!

You are a riot, and my new god! :wow: :loveya:

[longship]

62. Who benefitted?

That's two t's.

Sorry! I know. I'm a grammar and spelling whore.

[Sugar Smack]

64. ME TOO *wincing*

I can't help it either! :cry:

[Maven]

67. No, it isn't. "Benefited" is correct.

Although "benefitted" has gained some acceptance as an alternate spelling.

This is generally true of "-ed" past participles in which the syllable directly before the "-ed" does not receive emphasis (e.g: "preferred" vs. "proffered").

[longship]

70. I bow to your grammar-ness.

I humbly stand corrected. That's a good one to remember.

[fooj]

63. Isn't that awesome?

A friend gave me one a few years ago...still have it and have kept it in MINT condition. Pretty clever, eh?

[althecat]

68. I have several 1000 of these :)

[Sugar Smack]

75. You're rich!! *lol*

:D :bounce:

[Swamp Rat]

69. I like the use of the IAO (TIA) symbol

and the cobwebs behind the '9-11s' in the four corners. :)

[Sugar Smack]

74. I love your work, Swamp Rat.

I knew you'd like this!! :-)

[Peter Frank]

73. Don't forget cRummy...

[Sugar Smack]

77. *LOL*

I hadn't seen that one! :spray:

[Amonester]

79. Kick it up! This gem needs to stay on top. - n/t

[Sugar Smack]

80. Thanks, Amonester!

:D :D :D :D

[Amonester]

91. Kicking it up again for the Saturday morning crowd. :-)

And I think starting a thread with this OP in the Activist HQ Forum would be great. Please consider doing it (I may not have seen it there if you already posted it because I can't find enough time to search it). Anyhow, this is absolutely genius. Big thanks again!

[novalib]

81. I LOVE IT!!

Those are SOOOO COOOL!

Where can I get some??

[Sugar Smack]

82. Hey, novalib. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

There is a link upthread that shows you where to get them.

[novalib]

83. Thanks.....

and thanks for the message about the link up-thread.

I found it, and I'm gonna get some of those!!

[lonestarnot]

84. I like these so much I had to take another look today.

:kick: !

[Sugar Smack]

89. I showed my best friends the copy I had today

and they admitted that they could look at it for a long time and still not catch everything!

[lonestarnot]

95. Someone definitely put much thought and work into them.

[Blue_In_AK]

85. I'm still carrying a couple of those around in my coat pocket

from the "coronation" last January.

[Peter Frank]

87. .

[dogindia]

90. kiCK.

[Sugar Smack]

93. I'm glad you enjoy this! : )

[Amonester]

94. One more kick for having it back up - n/t :-)

:thumbsup:

[beyond_the_pale]

96. a Congressional Rep passes them out ?!?

and Deception Dollars are in circulation since 03? How did I miss them?

Sigh, I am so disheartened here in Miami, represented by I Ros Lehtinen (nominally challenged) for two+ decades.

I just ordered 100 Stolen Election . . . but should have Gore's picture on that one IMO.

Can't wait to put them in circulation ;)
