Petitions seem to be the only way to get justice these days...PLEASE sign my WHITE HOUSE petition..

Dear friends,

I wanted to let you know about a new petition I created on We the People, anew feature on WhiteHouse.gov, and ask for your support. Will you add your name to mine? If this petition gets 25,000 signatures by November 25, 2011,the White House will review it and respond!
We the People allows anyone to create and sign petitions asking the Obama Administration to take action on a range of issues. If a petition gets enough support, the Obama Administration will issue an official response.

You can view and sign the petition here:

http://www.wh.gov/Ty1

Here's some more information about this petition:

prevent large corporations like AT&T from firing senior employees (I was fired for sickness) to avoid pensions/health care!

Large corporations, such as AT&T, are getting rid of their senior employees by firing and making them leave for unjust reasons. I was fired, after 20+ years, for sickness and they turn around and say it was because 'I did not return during an unapproved absence.' All three of my doctors advised against going back to work and spoke with AT&T by phone and faxed medical documents. They claim they had no knowledge of my sickness. The driving force behind this is to avoid paying me a larger pension and health care as was negotiated in our union contract for my job title. Now they hire people under a different job title 'SERVICE CONSULTANT' with no pension and no benefits. IBEW LOCAL 21 went along with this under the guise of it saved jobs BUT it did not...it lowered the quality of jobs.


Help my pal STEVE 'THE DUDE' RUDE out! www.steverudeart.com

THANKS for all the Pre-orders...right out of the gate!

Looks like Hard covers are out selling soft covers by a mile! We wanted to keep the book price down BUT suddenly we realized we had 272 pages and 55 of those IN COLOR! Wes Garlatz did the book layout (I couldn't be happier with it) and coordinated the printing. Instead of printing a cheaper book (With mostly black and white pages), we opted to put QUALITY first and print the book that was meant to be. I put everything I had on MAD MONSTER PARTY and then some...into this book! I don't think this book will be a VEEBLEFETZER...as seen in Mr. Cronkite's store :)

RANKIN/BASS' MAD MONSTER PARTY

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! www.miserbros.com Book is at printer! Pre-order buttons will be up shortly!
