2. Here's hoping they'll miss every target to infinity
and finally go bankrupt and remove the name Wal-Mart off the history book.

I want Kroneke to sell the Nuggets, Avalanche, and other teams that he used the Wal-Mart $$ for, and keep his grimy hands in his back while he faces major crimial charges.

4. I was just in our local Wal-mart
yes I admit I go there when I need to, so please don't flame. Anyway I noticed that there seems to be a lot of summer merchandise they are not able to get rid of. Usually by now the shelves are almost empty of summer things especially outdoor items for gardening and picnics. Not so this summer. I guess the booming economy isn't leaving much left for these sort of things.

5. Wal-Mart is paying the price for having supported Bush and the Repubs
Edited on Mon Jun-21-04 02:37 PM by nodictators
They had to deep-discount in order to move their junk at the end of the Christmas selling season.

Based on the post at the top of this thread, it seems Wal-Mart's customers are smarter than their corporate managers.

6. GOOD!!!!
Sorry for any flaming, but those of you still shopping there after knowing the whole story about them are canceling out any support you give to the Democratic party, and lessening the power of your vote.

The rest of us are out here busting our asses to defeat that machine, and you're still giving them your money, which they then hand to Bush on a silver platter. How do you feel about that, I wonder?

7. Boycott WalMart!
I have been boycotting WalMart since the early 1990's and I haven't missed anything.

They have NOTHING that I want!

BTW, I cannot get to this link since it requires an AOL login. I would love to read the article. Would someone PM the article to me?

Thanks
