Bye Bye Bush group out of Yellow Springs, Ohio--an inspiration to us all!

[lebkuchen]

The effort is one of several undertaken by the Bye Bye Bush group since it formed this summer at a house party following a nationwide conference call with Michael Moore, who discussed his film Fahrenheit 9/11. About 50 people were expected to attend the gathering, Schoch said, and 150 showed up instead. Since then, the group has initiated an array of pro-Kerry activities, including her idea to plant themselves on Yellow Springs streets on Election Day as visual reminders of the importance of voting.

Bye Bye Bush members contemplated just posting signs, which local artist Migiwa Orimo created, but they decided that drivers will pay more attention if the signs are held by actual human beings. So these Yellow Springers, along with many others, are finishing up the election season doing more of what they’ve done all along — walking their talk, giving their time, putting their bodies in action to support the values that they hold dear.
