Don't know if this was already posted or not, but with the ongoing discussion of these bracelets, I thought it was interesting...

1. Why NOT?

From the article:
It's unlikely the wristbands will ever have the widespread appeal of the bands created by the Lance Armstrong Foundation, which have sold about 31 million...

To which I say Why NOT?
10 for $20 $2.00/ea.

3. purple "NEVER SURRENDER"

NeverSurrender.org

Never Surrender the fight to build a better democracy that can provide life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all.

For every bracelet purchased, working Assets will donate $1 to nonprofit groups fighting to offset the damaging policies of the current admimistration. Already, over $35,000 has been rasied...

9. I like the blue. I wish they had included yours and the NOT ME ones

in the article. Give DU some props for getting a cut of the proceeds.

10. Me too! I bet I could raise a lot of money for DU

if I got the right publicity. I talked to a lady last week about writing a press release, I was a little leary about releasing my name because of how fond the freepers are of death threats. Now I wish I would have. :shrug:

12. I ordered extras and carry them with me

so when someone is really interested and willing to wear it They can have one right away.

5. I have the black "NOT ME" one, but

I have some money burning a hole in my pocket for others.

6. I guess some of us

had the same idea? :shrug:

11. I brought up the topic in a post yesterday

for those who have the ability to get them made. I didn't get a response from anyone, but I thought a good one could be a blue bracelet with red lettering that says "Blue in a Red State." That way those Dems who are stuck in red states can get their message across as well. I live in a blue state myself, but I would be willing to purchase some for friends who are in red states to assert their voices.

13. Just ordered a few the other day

The blue ones that say 'Truth'

I am running out of arms.
