PETITION TO STOP THE CLOTHES LINE BAN.......

Target:
HONORABLE MR. PRESIDENT OBAMA
Sponsored by: 
You are officially invited to join the fight to legalize the good old fashioned clothes line.
States Vermont and Utah have already succeeded in passing laws to ban them from every community.
The reason for this clothesline prejudice, at least according to the ones making the rules, is that hanging clothes is unsightly,offensive,and causes property value to drop.
Dryers are responsible for 25% of the energy we use in our homes,and not everybody can afford the very expensive appliances.

Dryers are responsible for 25% of the energy we use in our homes, and during a recession you try to cut back a little. I have always used a good old-fashioned clothes line in the Summertime.
Please, end this nonsense because most of the energystar dryers are pricy, and not everyone can afford them.

This has to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard of. Just another step towards a totalitarian government. People have been doing this for forever, and they will continue. If you tell them to stop you will just force it underground. Five bucks says that this plan was thought of by a crusty old senile nut job of a republican. I once heard a great man (Bill Hicks) say that the further extreme right wing to the were, the closer you are to, lets say SATAN.

I have been hanging out our clothes for years. It is a pleasant way to spend a little time, and, of course, saves electricity. Plus, the clothes smell wonderfully afterwards.
