" 'Politics is the art of controlling your environment.' That is one of the 
key things I learned in these years, and I learned it the hard way. Anybody 
who thinks that 'it doesn't matter who's President' has never been Drafted 
and sent off to fight and die in a vicious, stupid War on the other side of 
the World -- or been beaten and gassed by Police for trespassing on public 
property -- or been hounded by the IRS for purely political reasons -- or 
locked up in the Cook County Jail with a broken nose and no phone access and 
twelve perverts wanting to stomp your ass in the shower. That is when it 
matters who is President or Governor or Police Chief. That is when you will 
wish you had voted." - Hunter S. Thompson

>Dear Tim,
>
>Last year, on “Black Friday,” the day after Thanksgiving and the biggest 
>shopping day of the year, thousands of WakeUpWalMart.com supporters went to 
>Wal-Mart parking lots.
>
>No, we weren't there for the shopping experience.  We went to pass out one 
>million flyers to Wal-Mart shoppers, letting them know the truth about 
>Wal-Mart's anti-family business model.
>
>It was real grassroots power.  It's how our campaign has become a movement. 
>  And, so back by popular demand, we are planning our second annual Black 
>Friday flyering this Friday.

>
>"Black Friday" is part of our 2006 "Hope for the Holidays" campaign.  Last 
>week, we kicked off the campaign with amazing conference calls by Senator 
>Barack Obama and Senator John Edwards.
>
>On the call, we launched "Postcards for Change," our letter-writing 
>campaign to citizens in Iowa and across the nation.  The response has been 
>incredible.  In a few short days, we blew past our goal and have now sent 
>well over 51,237 post cards (and counting).
>
>But, we’ve just begun our holiday season fight to change Wal-Mart’s 
>anti-family policies.  This Friday we need your help in letting millions of 
>Americans know the truth about Wal-Mart.
>
>http://www.wakeupwalmart.com/feature/holidays/blackfriday.html
>
>Remember, the goal of our “Hope for the Holidays” campaign is to not only 
>let every single American know the truth that Wal-Mart needlessly hurts 
>America's families, but to change Wal-Mart for the better.
>
>So, don’t let Grandma’s turkey, stuffing, and yams weigh you down.  This 
>Friday, work off that Thanksgiving meal by distributing our "Black Friday, 
>Black Eye" flyer to Wal-Mart shoppers for a few hours.
>
>Download the flyer today.

>
>By working together, we can accomplish great things.  We can change 
>Wal-Mart, and we can change America for the better.
