Stop using the words "money bomb"
Submitted by RS on Fri, 05/22/2009 - 15:25
Just between you and me and the fence post, I'd stop using the words "money bomb"....for obvious reasons. It doesn't connote anything but destruction. Guy Fawkes was no one to emulate. And given the way the jackasses in this country construe everything as an act of terrorism it would be prudent to give the donation idea another name.
How about, "Money Rain" or something like that?
I saw the post about a phone B**** to kucinich. Bad choice of words.

"MONEYBOMB" is PERFECT!
Check out the wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moneybomb
Everybody understands the term---it works, it comunicates.
And we invented it!
There are times for comprimise during a campaign,
no doubt, but I think this term worked because it
works on many levels. Even the radical association
works on the level of showing that we will support
radical change. (through peaceful means)

How about we stop using the word
"stop" or stop using the word "word". Is this seriously what this site has come too. I still get some good info here but a lot of this stuff is just simply ridiculous. I know I'm just bumping this thread but I see it on the top and just wonder why people even respond to this kind of stuff. I hardly ever post here anymore for this very reason but I guess now I'm the idiot

Origin
CNN screenshot displaying the term "Money Bomb".
The phrase "money bomb" has had other usages in the past, but the coinage of "moneybomb" or "money bomb" to describe a coordinated mass donation drive for a political candidate came to prominence in 2007, during the campaign of American presidential candidate Ron Paul. His supporters initiated multiple grassroots fundraising drives;
New York City musician Jesse Elder is said to have coined the usage of "moneybomb" for such an event Elder registered the new YouTube identity "RonPaulMoneyBomb" at YouTube on October 14, 2007,and active-duty service member Eric Nordstrom registered the dotcom domain on October 16,which claims to be the first moneybomb site. A large moneybomb involving over 35,000 donors and organized by Trevor Lyman took place on November 5, 2007, Guy Fawkes Day.
The fundraising drive raised over $4.2 million in one day, making it at that time the largest one-day Internet political fundraiser ever, and was backed largely by new or disaffected voters.After this, news media such as CNN began widely reporting the term "money bomb" to refer to the event. The term has also been used as a verband apparently arose from analogy with the neologism "googlebomb".

Ah, excuse me.....
This has been debated and hashed over since I've been on daily paul (1 year and 39 weeks) and quite frankly, I'm stinking sick of it and your incessant whining....
It is quit obvious to anyone with even 2 brain cells to connect together that YOUR SIDE LOST that debate (since we are still freely and without negative effects, using that phrase). Get that through yur thick skull and go whine somewhere else. All yur doing is poking the pile of dog doo with a sharp stick, and THAT my wee brained friend is good for no one.
Paul.
RS, thanks for the effort; it's good to
question the status quo. And thanks to all for the humorous thread.
I also think phone b... is the wrong phrase; and I'd love to see this community apply a bit of its wonderful creativity to come up with fresh, zinging alternatives to money b... too. Jon below had some good thoughts,
and in the humor department I think Jefferson wins for delightfully rhapsodic silliness.
Get over it, being PC is for ninny's
We need more bombs-infobombs, peacebombs, rallybombs, phonebombs, emailbombs-if people don't get it or misinterpret it they're ignorant.

I don`t care about what the jackasses in this country think.
They had a chance to vote for the most honorable man in the Congress and they blew it. I care about my family and the people here at DP.

I think it would bring a positive light to what all of us believe is a negative situation. I just would love to see an end to the collectivist-rants with no intention to help -- just vent.

the reality

is that once a word has entered the popular lexicon, you can't just take it back. The media recognizes the term in association with our campaign, it's pointless to try and rescind it now.
