Thread Name: BS: Tea Party Boycott list
Subject: RE: BS: Tea Party Boycott list
Georgia Paper is the only one we will have trouble boycotting. If we find alternatives in a similar price range, I'll post it.

Whole foods record is mixed they are doing good and bad and have no competition for our money.

In North Carolina at least, Walmart is pretty much on par with other retailers for the treatment of employees etc, It is a "right to work" State. We do buy elsewhere when viable other factors being equal.

Bobert,
Home Depot is being actively boycotted and attacked by The American "Family" Association and AFR for "coming in on the wrong side of the culture wars" So I would have to say that their record is mixed. I don't mind execs having a political point of view when they don't use my money to spread it.

I have to say that I will not stop watching Fox Movies, for free when I can, that do not have a political slant and Fox TV shows like the Simpsons often undermine the Fox News Agenda. Whereas shows like "24" promote it.

But Coors and the Kochs seem to have no redeeming qualities so far as I can tell.
