National Effort to End the War and Impeach Bush and Cheney
The National Committee to Impeach for Peace announces a coordinated effort to organize a US corporate shopping boycott April 15 (Tax day) to April 22 (Earth Day) to end the Iraq war and Impeach Bush and Cheney.
We are asking people to suspend corporate shopping for one week by delaying major purchases, avoiding chain stores and shopping malls, and finding local retailers and small business owners to support.
The message to corporate America —we are not buying it— is a response to Bush’s declaration after 9/11 to quietly go shopping. We are not going to be quiet in the face of torture, WMD lies, civil liberty losses and hundreds of thousands civilian deaths.
Endorse the Shopping Boycott
We need regional volunteer coordinators though out the US. Sign up today and download a support kit.

April 15, 2007 is a Sunday. So Tax Day is actually April 16.
I'm not sure that would affect the boycott, but because many stores are closed on Sunday, the boycott might have less of an impact on that day.
Whoops...I'm an idiot. In my quick read, I thought there were two separate boycotts (on on 4/15 and the other on 4/22). I now see that the boycott runs from one date through to the next.
I really should be more careful when I skim. So much for trying to effectively play catch up on your posts.
Brainwise--no worries, i do that as well...
