As the Russians are preparing for their May Day Parade, we offer our second annual May Day Obama Cuss Jar contest!
About:
There will be TWO WINNERS: you, and the blogger or source who sent you here! Both will get the Commie Obama Rally Cap and Bottle of Leninade - the two most coveted bourgeois trophies of the Obama Revolution!
Rules:
Add your guess in the comments below. Guesses MUST consist of a dollar value guess (no cents) AND the name of the referrer. If you don't have a referrer, pick one of the cool bloggers in our Blogroll!
One guess per person please.
Contest ends at noon EST on Sunday.
If two guesses are equal - one higher and one lower by the same amount - the tie goes to the lower.
The first of duplicate guesses will be considered.
Hints:
The jar is 10 inches tall, and 7 inches in diameter.
The jar contains 10 $100 bills and an unknown quantity of $1 bills. $1000 converted into $100 bills on December 14, 2009.
Previous Cuss Jar Contests: July 2009, $124, May Day 2010, $602, December 2010, $978.
A classic:

Happy May Day, and may the best Comrade-Blogger team win!
