More Funny
Last spring Consumers Union released the song "The Drugs I Need" by the Austin Lounge Lizards, as part of their Prescription for Change campaign for drug safety. It was downloaded over 100,000 times, I suspect because it's extremely funny. If you haven't seen it already, you should.
Now Consumers Union has teamed up with the Austin Lounge Lizards again, with new songs for two more campaigns. The first is "The Tower," part of "Hear Us Now" opposing media consolidation. The second is "It's Always Christmas Time (for Visa)," part of a project on changing our hideous credit card laws. You should go to both sites, watch both songs, and sign both petitions.
Consumers Union: putting the "fun" back in "fundamental political reform."
