ProFlowers is continuing to advertise on the Rush Limbaugh show inspite of his despicable and demeaning comments on women and their use of and access to contraceptives. ProFlowers claims to have ethical labor standards. We're calling on them to have ethical advertising standards.

Rush Limbaugh's reprehensible attack on Sandra Fluke (the college woman who spoke to Congress about women's reproductive rights), calling her a slut and a prostitute and asking her to make a sex video, should be the final nail in his on-air coffin. Let's convince KMBZ to kick him off the air.

STOP the NEXT GREAT WEALTH GRAB!  Selected rich Wall Street investors are poised to grab millions of foreclosed homes owned by Fannie Mae. Freddie Mac, and the FHA.   For pennies on the dollar, these selected investors, these insiders, can acquire 1000s of homes bundled together, turn them into rental properties, and when the market recovers, flip them for huge profits.  Oh, and also make money from rental income as they go.

Enough of Rush Limbaugh! Glen Beck is gone thanks to the boycott of his sponsors and now it's time to get rid of Rush. Rush has spewed his hatred for years and now his latest version of nonsense concerns the Georgetown college student who testified that her friend lost an ovary due to being denied healthcare. Rush mischaracterizes (or downright lies) that she testified she's having so much sex that she can't afford to pay for her contraception, calling her a "Femi-Nazi" and "slut" and disgustingly suggests the public has a right to watch videos of her sexual activities. Why this latest diatribe? Because she dared to support women's healthcare rights. Just a typical day for Rush and although he has a right to say whatever he chooses, we as a society should equally have the right to protect ourselves from it. Shame, shame, shame John Hogan, CEO of Clear Channel radio, and Rush's sponsors who promote and support through their funding such crass, nasty, and spiteful attacks on our fellow Americans. In consequence after years of his nonsense I'm ready to sign a petition to boycott Rush Limbaugh's sponsors. Are you? Rush always has an opinion and its always toxic, hateful, and hurtful and pits Americans against Americans, promoting division and distrust, never the spirit of peace and cooperation. Time for Rush to go. Let's use our power at the marketplace and pledge to withhold our purchasing dollars, not buying the sponsors products, and inform other citizens of what we believe to be Rush's harmful effects through every means available including such as conversations, letters to the editors of newspapers, repeated letters to those corporate sponsors as necessary, and whatever legal means available. Our power is in our wallets so let's use it. Time to rally for the America of of values that honors national unity and respect.

"The big banks have been imposing a back-door fee by raising the minimum balance required to qualify for a fee waiver on checking accounts. If you don’t keep a large buffer of cash in your checking account, you’ll have to fork over an extra $10 or more a month for account maintenance fees." And now, Citizens Bank of Las Cruces is following suit. The bad news gets even worse... the first of three options, "Easy Checking," allows you only 5 free checks a month! You'll pay 50 cents a check for each additional one you write. Can you imagine? Review for yourself these three money-gouging checking account options at https://www.citizenslc.com/personal-checking.htm

The Occupy Santa Fe General Assembly approved the 99 Pledge as a tool to identify which candidates and elected officials are beholden to the 1% and which law makers represent working Americans. The 99 Pledge was instrumental in gaining approval by the New Mexico legislature of a Memorial calling for the reversal of Citizens United. The 99 Pledge has been successful at bringing the issue of campaign corruption to the public. The 99 Pledge proved to be a powerful tool in New Mexico when activists confronted law makers with the 99 Pledge in one hand and the truth in the other.

A station that won't approve fraudulent advertisements for products should be at least as vigilant about misleading political advertisements. Political groups would be more responsible in framing their messages if they knew they had to pass a truth test to get them on the air.

The Wall Street Journal broke the story that Bank of America is getting ready to charge customers up to $25 a month for their checking account. But don’t worry – bank executives’ and their friends in the 1% will be exempt by keeping a large enough bank balance. American taxpayers gave Bank of America a $45 billion loan when it struggling 3 years ago, and this is how we get repaid? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/01/bank-of-america-fee_n_1312347.html?ref=business&ncid=edlinkusaolp00000008

We believe that a "Person" is a single entity comprised of flesh and blood. Not a conglomerate of people. We request an amendment to the Utah Constitution to remove "Personhood" status to any collective of and a ban on any rights afforded to a "Person" to any company, corporation or any other collective.

This petition is to show our congress that we are not satisfied with the fact that businesses are making unauthorized transactions and or overcharging clients/customers. When clients/customers request a reimbursement, they are told to wait over 72 hours before the transaction can be reversed. Many have to wait about a week before receiving their money back into their accounts. These companies are basically stealing money, creating a great inconvenience, and adding unnecessary stress to the public. By signing this petition, you are stating that you agree that the requiring of individuals to wait 72+hours for the reimbursement of their money from a company should be illegal, and direct action should be taken against whomever authorizes such transactions. Also, these companies should be penalized and caused to pay interest for handling the transaction as a loan.

The New Jersey Division of Investment should force disclosure through shareholder advocacy on behalf of the citizens of New Jersey. The division, which votes the shares held by nearly $70 billion in state pension funds for the state’s middle class should adopt a policy supporting transparency in political spending of the corporations it invests in This is a necessary response to the US Supreme Court Citizens United Decision utilized by the 1%.
