ORIGINAL: lovmuffin There's not much I could add to what Kirata says other than to state that these sleazy boycotts, though legal, are a desperate attempt to to silence those who they, the left, can't compete with in any other way within the arena of ideas and political philosophy. The boycotters should keep in mind that boycotting is a double edge sword. The boycotts are a true grass roots effort. No corporate sponsorship... just private citizens having their voices heard. Absolutely nothing any other group can not engage in themselves... and have. Some ABC affiliates initially canceled ''Politically Incorrect'' and later put it back on the air, although not the station in Washington, where the White House press secretary, Ari Fleischer, warned on Wednesday that ''people have to watch what they say and watch what they do.'' (The White House later dropped the first half of that warning.) Anyone recall this? http://www.nytimes.com/2001/09/29/arts/think-tank-in-new-war-on-terrorism-words-are-weapons-too.html Or maybe this one? Time to Boycott “Old Navy” stores….. By We The People on June 8th, 2011 at 12:23 pm Posted In: Casual Conversation “A nationally prominent retail store has announced it will sell “gay pride” T-shirts in support of presidentially proclaimed ”Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Pride Month.” Old Navy will sell rainbow-styled T-shirts as part of the its “Love Proudly: Pride 2011″ campaign. The shirts reportedly went on sale June 1 and will be available at select stores throughout the country. Old Navy announced it will donate 10 percent of the proceeds to the “It Gets Better Project,” a pro-LGBT campaign. Gary Cass of DefendChristians.org says Old Navy is promoting a lifestyle that is in “complete rebellion against God.” http://www.politicallyincorrectamerica.com/PIAblog/2011/06/time-to-boycott-%E2%80%9Cold-navy%E2%80%9D-stores%E2%80%A6/ Boycotts and petitions go on all the time, for various reasons by various groups. Yes but no one has gone after any of the libs in the main stream media yet or called up the advertisers who pulled out of Rush's show to tell them they wouldn't buy their products for doing that. This is what I mean by a double edge sword. Limbautgh called a college kid a slut and a whore for mthree days. Tell me which msm oersonailty would of kept there job after that? Peopel forget thsi wasnt political speech it was the polirtics of unsubstabntiated character assasinatin. You probably an tell me why she was intially to testify but could repoat his lies about it
