We could boycott ABC.

If the demographics of ABC are a good representation of America (about half pukes/ half dems) then 1/2 of ABC's audience would go away. I don't about you, but I think advertisers might be interested in paying less for half the audience.

If they decide to run the "Path to Tyranny" (oops, 9/11), we may decide not to watch.

If you hit them in the wallet, the only thing that they care about, then they will start to listen.

Until the documentary is pulled, Democrats will not watch ABC. If it runs ABC will be boycotted. (And it might even be a good idea to boycott any company that advertises during the showing of the miniseries as well.)

(Psst, pass it along.)

Of course it could flop, and well nothing could change, and America's children could be brainwashed.

4. Show me where "we" can get half of ABC's audience to boycott.

The people here do NOT speak for the Dem party. I remember a poll just last week that estimated "we" account for AT TOPS 10%. While it is nice to feel all powerful in the illusion that "we" control the entire Dem party, IT JUST ISN'T TRUE!! Boycott all you want, drop your cable, never eat at Red Lobster or refuse to sleep on a Sleep Number bed but please do not be so full of ourselves to think that 1/2 of ABC's audience would go away.

People keep talking about how the Reps got the Reagan movie canceled. I think one of the ways they accomplished this was they don't ask people to boycott so fucking many things. Look at the list of advertisers/supporters you have to boycott in order to be a "true" progressive. Sit down, it will take most of the night to read it. I believe OVERKILL is why we can't get a decent boycott or protest together. Every other fucking weekend is THE DAY that we start "the revolution". There comes a point when normal people say "fuck this" and just go on with their lives.
