In response to Newt Gingrich's comment that occupy protesters "need to a job right after they take a shower" some of the unemployed have decided to write Mr Newt Gingrich and mail their letters and resume to his campaign contribution address. This way, like the unemployed, he can open every single one of those letters in hopes of finding the money to fund his dreams and instead finding reality slapping him in the face.
Go ahead, let it out. Just remember we're non-violent and keep it civil.
Address:
Newt Gingrich Presidential Headquarters
PO Box 550769

Proposal: “to call out Newt Gingrich for his statement about occupy protesters needing ‘a job right after they take a shower’”
Concerns:I just found his statement outrageous. To tell someone to get a job. Why not tell someone with cancer to go run a marathon and I was insulted. I imagined anyone unemployed would feel that insult as well. I’ve written a letter (www.lookpastit.com/OccupyMelbourneFL/GetPerspectiveLetterbySteven.pdf) to explain my offense and included my resume and I’d like others to do the same. I’d like it if people could just send him a letter to the address provided which is for their contributions. They’d have to be opened, every single one of them because they might have a check or money in it.
Consensus: PASSED- Post on the Forum for others to follow

- I would suggest posting this on the forum and draft a letter people can copy and paste
- When we write this guy, realize this guy left his third wife while she was being treated for cancer.
- This is like them saying “The people are hungry give them bread, let them eat cake.”
- Question in regards to who works on making proposals that pass actually happen? (Both work groups and individuals depending on what the proposal calls for. This one would require individuals to either write their own letter or copy parts of Stevens and mail them with their resume’s to: Newt Gingrich Presidential Headquarters PO Box 550769 Atlanta, GA 30355)
- There was a comment that Bill Oriley made that the banks haven’t committed any crimes and that’s why they weren’t arrested but the occupiers have.
