Boycott Clearwire

We are receiving offers from Clearwire wireless 
broadband, to subscribe to their Internet 
service.  Now is an opportunity to strike back at 
Bush and his crooked bunch of corporate tycoons.
Craig McCaw lives in a 12,200-square-foot house 
once owned by musician Kenny G in Hunts Point, on 
the shore of Lake Washington, where neighbors 
include the Gateses. The McCaws hosted President 
George W. Bush for a re-election fund-raiser. 
Over the years, McCaw has owned a yacht called 
Cellular One, a Gulfstream IV jet, a Falcon 50 
jet and a Beaver seaplane....  ---BLOOMBERG

Since 2003, three of the president's four 
fund-raising trips to Washington have taken him 
to Medina, where he has collected $4.5 million 
for the Republicans. A Craig McCaw–hosted event 
raised $1.7 million of that. The grateful 
president in turn last year appointed Craig 
McCaw's second wife, Susan, a venture capitalist, 
as U.S. ambassador to Austria. ---SEATTLE WEEKLY

Here is what it looked like in 2004 when Bush 
came to Hunt's Point. Many of you stood with me, 
including OKelly, Gary, Jack and Jack, and many 
others.   http://www.epjc.net/op/StopBush.htm

Your boycott-and-shunning campaign should include 
all dealings with Clearwire's corporate office, 
5808 Lake Washington Blvd NE Suite #300, 
Kirkland, WA 98033 including all Clearwire employees, and sales channels.

Clearwire is an evil company.  McCaw supports the 
Republican Party in order to gain business 
advantage, regulatory favors, provisions and 
earmarks in the Congress--- and ultimately to 
capture millions of users defecting from the 
previous bunch of evil criminals, Qwest, Verizon 
and Comcast, in search of an honest Internet provider.

DON'T BE FOOLED -- warn all your friends, this is 
not a good company to switch your Internet 
service to.   As long as McCaw is involved, 
regard this as a completely as equivalent to Bush 
and Cheney, on their ethics and style of doing 
business.  Consider this like ENRON, for example.

An internet provider has many, many ethical 
choices involving your privacy, your quality of 
service, and your freedom and liberty.  Would you 
trust Bush to provide net neutrality?   Would you 
trust Bush and Cheney not to delay your email, or 
block progressive bloggers, or organizing tools 
like Riseup, during elections or 
invasions?   Well then, you shouldn't trust Clearwire.

Let's show them the power of progressives and liberals in the marketplace.
