Progressive Pages- Need your feedback!
I just visited DancingBear's thread about wanting to come up with a directory of Repuke businesses to boycott and provide decent progressive alternatives for folks.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=2587076&mesg_id=2587076&page=

I'd like to help any way I can to compile this book.

Here's what I need from ya'll:

Give me the names and approximate locations of any local KS businesses you saw the last year or so with Bush/Cheney signs outside, behind the counters or in windows. Any "I support President Bush and our troops?" or anything equivalent?

Alternately, provide the names and approximate addresses of progressive or Democratic owned or Democratic-supporting businesses you can recommend instead.

Let us know about good AND bad experiences you've had patronizing good or bad businesses all over the state!

Thanks everybody!
Let's hear em!

2. No,
We're advocating patronizing progressive owned and supporting businesses over Repug businesses. And we want people to have the ammunition to do that.

Cut off their money, and you cut off their power. Bada boom badda bing.

8. I don't want to promote or support any business owner who supports * or
his failed economic policies. This is an excellent way to help me decide where to shop. I am most appreciative of these efforts to compile this list.

4. Thanks proud.
But I'm sure you guys aren't gonna have many options on where to shop in Kansas, huh?

Even we in Texas feel for you. At least we have Austin, and some enclaves in the big cities.

5. Hey, this is a huge metro area
2 million people live in KC metro area. There are literally hundreds of motorcycle shops. This guy does NOT have lock on the market, by any means.

Boycott Shamrock Cycles in KCK.
