Consider the waste of scarce dollars that joining the Million Shoe March would be. Fun, but wasteful.
- The shoes you send will not reach the White House in a visible fashion. All packages and envelopes intended for the White House (and Congress) go to a secure facility for "weapons" perusal.
- Once the gag is understood by the persons responsible for checking into all these packages of single shoes (Xray machines?), all such incoming packages will be diverted to disposal.
If you're tempted to spend money foolishly, please rethink your plan.
There are so many great charities out there that could use your packin' 'n' postage money to good effect for people who are really hurting in this piss poor economy. In fact, you could be buying new shoes at local discount houses for a kid in your very area.
Bu$h is beyond experiencing shame. Or embarrassment. Emotionally he's a dead man walking, probably since early in his childhood, a pathetic creature having nowhere near the capacity for joy as does a dog (Mr. al-Zaida's launching epithet), a man not even worth the 5 bucks you're thinking to waste sending him a shoe.
So, everyone, enjoy those wonderful videos and pictures of the Hateful Dodger dodging those shoes, spread them far and wide for the grim satisfaction they afford, but...
Give your money to groups helping the unfortunate near you in this financially grinding season. Here's a start:
CA Association of Foodbanks
Feeding America
