“Waaaaa. Beck is smarter than me..I can’t refute any of the facts he presents, so I’ll call him stupid and creepy.”
Why not be more specific in your accusations so they can be responded to, instead of whining about him?

Ah yes, the Whiner Approach. A classic.

I don’t need to refute Glenn, as he does this quite well himself. Obviously you haven’t been watching The Daily Show, but why would you? It so clearly defines Glenn’s stark raving idiocy:

I’m canceling all of my mail-order prescriptions and transferring them to another pharmacy here and boycotting CVS/Caremark starting TODAY. I plan on calling them and telling them WHY too.

I love Glenn Beck!!!

Thank you Walmart for showing me the light. Now I will only shop at Target.

Woha Nellie! Target supports Dems and Lefties!!!!

That’s why I stopped shopping at Target after the AJC reported Target gave big bucks to zero, same with the home depot.

Obviously, Honda, Bender and Bender (attorneys)and AARP (to name a few) I noticed advertising on Glenn’s show yesterday, didn’t get the memo.

[...] thanks to pressure from left-wing groups angry at … well, their latest anger du jour. The boycott made big news when reports that major retailers Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and CVS had joined the effort. The Left [...]

Well stop taking philosophy classes. I never noticed any marxist professors in my chem or bio classes, and I went to a pretty liberal school (Wisconsin).

Terry Silver on August 18, 2009 at 5:53 PM

LOL…are you kidding…EVERYONE at Wisconsin is a Marxist

There does need to be a real confrontation over this PC junk that is the main weapon (after just plain lying) of the left. The only way to defeat it is to call it like it is and take the licks, but define it as a true loving effort to free the black people from their politically imposed victimhood.

The right needs to repeat this message until it becomes mantra: Human dignity has NOTHING to do with the color of one’s skin! To use one’s skin color for political purposes is the destruction of human dignity.

BTW, aside from the 99cent story, where can you buy Sargento cheese?

Is Sargento cheese AKA Government cheese?

Best Buy is probably just saving face because they don’t have the money to advertise.

1 What if any connection does Van Jones, a member of the Obama Administration and co-founder of ColorOfChange, have to this boycott?

OK, today I took care of Sargento, GEICO, State Farm and SC Johnson. I won’t even bother with Progressive, they are hard core, as is Mens Wearhouse. I’ll do four more tomorrow.

I have a couple of questions:

1 What if any connection does Van Jones, a member of the Obama Administration and co-founder of ColorOfChange, have to this boycott? If there is a connection, that raises troubling questions about how the administration reacts to its critics. Rather Nixonian, wouldn’t you say?

2 What is it about the ColorOfChange boycott that has been so effective in convincing companies like Walmart, Best Buy, CVC and others to drop sponsorship of Beck? Is it simply that this insignificant organization has sent them a letter objecting to Beck’s views and threatened to stop shopping at their stores? Or is there any other form of pressure being brought to bear, say the type of pressure that Jesse Jackson has used so effectively?

Just a couple of questions. Maybe our news media would like to investigate.

Or maybe not.

I don’t care how long their boycott lasts, mine will last forever. By-By Best Buy. I just plunked down $800 at Ultimate Electronics instead. As for Wal-Mart I can buy their Chinese junk at any garage sale.
