Fun Game: Toss a Tomato at AIG

March 21, 2009

Remember how much fun it was to throw a shoe at President Bush last December? Well, a MoveOn member created a game to show just how mad Americans are at AIG, the people who are most responsible for the severity of the financial crisis who should be in jail. Instead, they’re slated to get $450 million in bonuses. Infuriating, right?.

This fun game is called The Great AIG Tomato Toss and it’s based on the idea that we should stop throwing money at the people who ruined our economy—and start throwing tomatoes.

MoveOn’s goals was to get 5 million tomatoes thrown and as of 5:30pm Pacific Time Friday March 20, they’re at  almost 10,000,000. Go here to participate: http://www.moveon.org/tomato/

I did my share–and so did my son; he’s going to end up paying for it with his taxes and he’s still in kindergarten! Go on, try it, it’s fun! Really. I mean what else are you doing other than trying to get through to unemployment?

Thanks, Art Predator aka Gwendolyn Alley
