Concert to Support the Troops, expose Bushco.'s shortcomings [View All]

[JohnnyBoots]

With all the Live - 8, Live Aide, Farm Aide how about a huge concert(s) to support the troops both on the battlefield and when they get home. This would work well for the left for several reasons:

1. All proceeds go to buying our troops the armor and supplies they need on the battlefield as well as helping them when they come home (some thing the gov couldn't give 2 shits about)- paying bills, shrink fees, Rx and Med. bills, unemployment, hell even marriage counseling, etc. This will show the shortcomings of the Administration on a national level especially if we ask for donations from the average American to support the troops like our president should have. It will reveal the hypocrisy to those who are not fully aware of the GOP's bullshit.

2. A concert aimed at "supporting the troops" would have to be attended by country artists as well,lest they lose credibility- which in turn would attract red staters(Concerts in the south like this too?). If we state repeatedly the purpose of the concert is to correct where Bushco. has been absent in thier duty it might sink into the heads of a few bush voters and change thier mind which could have a dominoe effect. Especially if some of thier favorite acts show up to give it creedence.

3. It would help out a lot of young men and women who were lucky enough to make it home and now face an uphill battle getting thier lives back on track.

4. The MSM as well as MTV would be forced to cover it if it got big enough, which would force the MSM to discuss Bushco.'s fuckups supporting the troops. Especially if every artist interviewed repeated those talking points.

5. A good show for a good cause is always a good time.

This a feasible idea? Any suggestions criticiscms or ways to get it off the ground and come to fruition are welcome. Any thoughts or music/promotion connections out there?
