Dear CODEPINKer,

As we approach a brand new year,
We send you lots of holiday cheer.
Click here to hear our jingle bells song
To teach our children right from wrong
To nurture them to take their place
At peace with all the human race.

Much love from your CODEPINK sisters,
Dana, Farida, Gael, Jen, Jodie, Medea, Nancy, Rae, Sam & Tiffany

P.S. Send a gift of peace to your loved ones by donating in their name. For a contribution of $50- $99, we will send you a CODEPINK tote bag or a signed copy of Cindy Sheehan's Dear Mr. President. Contributions of $100 or more will receive both complimentary gifts. And remember, CODEPINK T-shirts, books, and other items on our website make great holiday gifts.

Spread the word -- forward this email to your friends!

GI Joe
(to the tune of "Jingle Bells")

GI Joe, don't you know, War is not the way?
War toys only teach our kids the violent way to play. Hey!
GI Joe, don't you know, War is not the way?
Let's teach our kids to live in peace 'cause killing's not okay.

Little kids will learn… by what their parents do,
So when you buy their toys,… it's really up to you
If you buy them guns,… you teach them how to kill,
But vi-o-lence is not a game and we have had our fill.

GI Joe, don't you know, War is not the way?
War toys only teach our kids the violent way to play. Hey!
GI Joe, don't you know, War is not the way?
Let's teach love and peace instead by what we buy today.

You can buy them books,…and dolls and cars that run.
There's lots of things that you can get,
but they don't need a gun!
You can give them hugs… and teach them how to play
So they'll grow up all safe and sound
and not get blown away!
