Guys, one last thought, related to Sears. If you go to their web site, find a link to “Military Support”, an issue on which Sears has stood very tall, indeed.

I am going to contact them to voice my displeasure at their support of that pig Rosie, but I am not able to boycott Sears. Their support of the families of our soldiers completely trumps this ABC issue.

Just so you know.

I don’t think anyone’s mentioned it yet, but don’t forget that the woman who had Ro’s job moved to the Today show after its host got bumped up to network news anchor.

As much as the show seems like a joke to us, someone takes it seriously.

Good Vent minus the spitting part. That reminded me of Rosanne Barr spitting after she "sang" (shrieked) our national anthem before a San Diego Padres game years ago. Story - From June 25th 1990 http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/features/20030717-9999_1c17barr.html The actual "performance" courtesy of someone at YouTube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHMVuT3Gl6g When you watch Rosanne Barr here you have to wonder if Rosie O'Donnell is her daughter or long lost cousin.

I love how in only 200 years, America has gone from dumping tea into Boston Harbor to haughtily refusing to give up little candy covered chocolates peddled by a fat Z-grade joke stealer.

Oh, sorry… that was completely uncalled for and I apologize. I should’ve said “weight-challenged Z-grade joke stealer.”

Just glancing at MM with the cart I thought this was going to be a spoof on “green” products, with all those green containers…this was even better, for the moment. Maybe a followup on the Greens for later…

Thank you all for the tips. Tide and T.J. Maxx the only concern and I have a hunch that Tide will announce something soon, against its sponsorship of the ‘wonder’ show.

Excellent vent and project. Thank you MM et al.

I hit “Print Preview”, then printed pages 3-5 to get my copy of the results of heroyalwhyness’s hard work. Thanks h…

A few years ago Phil Donahue was removed from TV by the efforts of a dentist from Dallas. For several years this man documented offensive materials from the Donohue show and politely and respectively presented this material to the sponsors. One after the other the sponsors left the show. At first they were able to replace those lost but eventually there were not enough sponsors to continue the show.

And Rosie has her PhD in Structural Engineering from where? I recall that qualified structural engineers with years of experience gave rather detailed explanations why the buildings fell as they did and there was very little disagreement among those engineers. Sit down, Rosie. And put your hand over your mouth. For a LONG time. Stop embarrassing yourself.

Thanks for the research and contact info. It makes it easier for us to speak up.

You give us the info, and we’ll write the letters.

Maybe we should target one sponsor per day, or per week, until the job gets done?

Great Vent Michelle!

We need to know the commercial sponsors who sponsor the likes of O’Donnell. It would be really great if Hot Air posted on a sidebar a list of sponsors who consistently sponsor such shows.

In my personal shopping experience when I have made a decision to avoid purchase of a brand or vendor that preference lasts for years. The avoidance of such product becomes a habit, and for many habits are hard to break.

I just quit my part time job at Sears.

Actually I did that two years ago. I was having to much fun in the Lawn and Garden Dept.

I Can’t Believe It’s Not Toast.

Hey, if you use Tide, please stand downwind. That stuff reeks. Thank you.

I hope Best Foods Mayo is a different division of Hellmans. Kraft tastes like caacaa.

I wrote to Tide and this was the message I got from the auto reply

Response
We are addressing an unforeseen company-wide issue, so we need to take some time off from answering email. We’re sorry we won’t be able to reply to your message, but we expect to be up and running in the very near future.

Wonder what the “company-wide issue is.

I also gave up the M & M’s for Lent and just will keep on keeping on but does anyone know if anybody else makes HE laundry detergent? We just got one of those machines that says it’s best if we used that type of detergent. Thanks for the list, the letter guide and the idea about sending in a receipt showing the alternate products we buy along with it.

I never see any hot chicks at MY grocery store. Not since I left Dallas, anyway. If somebody can direct me to the Hot Chick Grocery Store here in Washington, DC, please do so immediately.
