The numbers are growing every day, and people are starting to go after Best Buy as well. How many corporations will be willing to donate to right wing politicians if we identify them and spread the word? It's all about the bottom line. If donations to the right bring pain, the donations will stop.


Shareholder meetings are also a nice venue to discuss political donations.

1. I was wondering when we'd see the effects of the Citizens United decision.

Now we're seeing it.

2. My sister is getting ready to do some back-to school shopping -

any advice for where she can pick up school supplies?

3. Is there a Big Lots by her?

4. These days, a large grocery store probably has most fo what she needs

and for the rest, she can probably get them with free shipping, delivered to her front door, by buying them online:)

7. K Mart?

8. I do much of my shopping at the union grocery store, and the rest of it at my local hardware store.

5. Someone needs to get a message across to corporations

1. We don't want you to donate to EITHER "side"

2. Use that "extra" money you seem to have, to reduce prices for your customers & to pay your workers more

3. It's not a '"right v left" issue

6. Good one!

9. or hire more. Best Buy could've hired 4 full timers for what they gave this bigot.

Granted $25,000 isn't much to live on, but it's better than 4 people on unemployment or part time, or some right wing teabager having an extra $100,000 in his war chest.

I guess I'll just have to buy that $700 Blu-Ray 400 disc carousel someplace else.

EDIT: And the extended warranty I usually buy as well.

10. Best Buy too...

ahh well... don't need anything from them badly enough to support that sort of shite.
