How much would it cost...if we all chipped in...to buy one ad. With our names. And have it say up top, "YES...IN OUR NAME". We are not celebrities, nor entertainers, nor self-avowed "intellectuals"...we are Americans. Self-described Average Americans, who work day-to-day, salute our flag, pay our taxes and recognoze that America, as far from perfect as she may be, has always been Earth's shining light. That we, as a nation, have always been there, to defend freedom, to help feed the hungry, and yes, to protect the powerless. We've proven it, time and time again. Now the time has come for us to find out who are allies truly are. We are not the opinion-shapers, but we are the nation-makers. Yes Mr. President, do it...IN OUR NAME."

Bump... Lets do it. However Liberal Rags like the Times have a history of censuring conservative adds.

The add must have been around a half million(seems high but know it is high)..someone might know the cost of a NYTimes ad full page..however with FREEP we could contribute thru donations (not to the Times ..why fill their pockets) and use just those words..good thought!!!!!now I know why they call you The BIGB..;)

That sounds like a good idea!

But not in the NYT. Those guys drift so far to the left they would almost certainly never run the ad.

How about USA Today?

I don't write much, but I am here. Thats a great idea, how do we chip in $$.I would like to draw more attention to these anti-americans all over the country so that people would think twice before watching their movies,etc. When we give them our money, and attention, we give them more power to influence others.

This was done a few years ago. It can be done.

The more I think about it the more I think it could be a movement, go far beyond FR. An ad a day. Maybe Rush would promote it on the air.

Great Plan - even the wording is just about perfect right out of the box!

Count me in - I'll pony up real $$ to be a part of this. How about $200 for openers?

Keep me posted.......Hardstarboard

Great post! I might add the question," Which American City are the celebrity's willing to bet that Saddam does not have WMD?" How's 'bout Hollywood!
