So two weeks ago I found an interesting list of companies that ThinkProgress.org posted an article about listing all the companies and brands that support and donate to right-wing attack ads. You can read that thread here. A Guide to Consumer Brands Helping Bankroll Right-Wing Attack Ads

Here's another interesting list of companies the left has planned to boycott that I found surfing through the internet. Prepare to laugh and take note.

From Liberal Info - List of Companies Supporting Right-Wing and Tea Party Causes and Candidates to Boycott

Quote:
As we discussed in our recent article, 4 Effective Ways to Fight the Tea Party, there are many things we can do to combat their agenda. We can work to advocate truthfulness, avoid television stations that air conservative Super PAC propoganda. WE can support candidates facing elections against Tea Party candidates…

And we can boycott boycott boycott companies whose products and services help fund the Tea Party agenda and candidates.

For your convenience, here is a list of but a few of those companies we should avoid. Be sure to share with your family and friends. This is by no means a fully comprehensive list, but it is a good beginning.

Is this insane or what? I thought it was a joke at first. I can't believe these people are seriously about to boycott all these companies. Good luck liberals.

Actually you need to stop doing business with 90% of the Businesses & their Owners since most Capitalist do not support Obama. Recall Obamas "You didn't build that" ? Most business owners / farmers / ranchers did build that and will not support the socialist we now have in office.

You might stop eating those veggies, steaks, putting gas in your car if you really want to make a Pro-Obama statement.

Liberals should just protest the entire private sector and not engage in business since they're so opposed to it.

they should all live in grass huts and eat nothing but artisanally-harvested earthworms so that they do not encounter any offensive capitalists in their daily lives

And most importantly, STOP posting on internet forums using keyboards and computers made with oil by-products.

O HAPPY DAY!

Looking thru that list and I am happy to report that the only thing that is there that I watch is Natgeo. And I don't buy any of the listed products.
