Boycott & computer products.

f you don't like what America is doing then go to france or germany. Just think then you could be a gay natzi.

I thought this phrase was funny when said on the Daily Show the other night - even funnier to know it's actually used.

Still, maybe I will move there - I'm sure I'd enjoy the company of 'gay nazis' over ignorant biggots.

 Quite frankly I won't buy anything made in france or germany and now possibly turkey.

Good for you! It's a breath of fresh air to see new ideas - this time a boycott for NOT going to war!
Spend your money on products that promote freedom and humanitarian ideals, like a new pair of Nikes.

If you dumb rednecks in tenn. can't watch the news to see what is really happening

As someone who works in the News, I for one say it's the last place you should turn to find out
what's really going on.  (This applies to all stations... doubly for FOX).

and let your political party thoughts stand in the way then watch out, because you may see foot prints over your back for getting in the way.

Yep, I can see you've not let any political bias sway your statements in any way....
I don't, however, see the need to watch out for your foot personally.. In order to walk across my back, you'll have to take it out of your mouth first.

BTW, I just traded in my all-American Saturn for an off-the-boat, 100% Japanese Subaru Impreza. Why? Because GM has reduced Saturns to total s*** over the last few years. Buying a Subaru is my way of telling the Big Three to improve the quality of their cars.

Funny thing is, you're probably also promoting American industry more by doing it. That Subaru was more than likely built in country - and the Ford your dad bought is more than likely built out of the country.

Thats why boycotts are silly on products are so silly in this day and age.

I could boycott a bunch of products and the only people who will really suffer are some taiwanese workers.. The corporations that own the product may well be picking up revenue on my second choice.

But buying something based on quality is a smart move and the way to go.

So you really liked my saying about gay natzi's, I thought it was pretty good to.

No, I was saying it was laughable. A subtle difference, then again I'm sure with all the money you'll save from your boycott, you'll be able to save up the sheckles and buy a clue.

Can't really afford Nikes, I am not one of those rich moviestar liberals that could afford such an expensive pair of shoes.

Charlton Heston appreciates your kind words and broad stereotyping..

Perhaps I was being a bit obtuse -- spend your dollars on a U.S. product that runs sweat shops in the third world to turn a profit.... Thats a far lesser evil - there, that's it...

Did you know that it is impossible to put your foot in your mouth, we took a survey today at work, and 0 out of 100 workers there could not put there foot in their mouth.

Why not get Geraldo can draw you a map if you have trouble finding either of these items ?  If you need help finding your a$$ or your elbow, be sure to drop me a line.

Nice to see you're spending your time productively and doing your bit to help the economy. Now if all 100 of you will kindly pick up your brooms and go back to work.....

@Smerf

I must admit I find your replies both amusing and confusing at the same time.

It seems (in replies to me anyway) to be continuous sprout of 'liberal liberal money rich moviestar liberal'

The one 'fact' you may have gleaned is that I do work in News -- this doesn't necesarily make me 'rich' (photojournalists don't work on that side of the camera). And 'liberal' seems to be a derogatory slur you use for 'people who don't agree with me' - I think I'm supposed to take offence at it.. but more on that later.

Whatever the 'liberal' government (correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the name of that party was the Democrats) did 8 years ago is no concern of mine -- I didn't live in America, and as such had no sway over their actions.

In your terminology that would make me a 'wetback' .
So any effect those statements are supposed to have are lost on me.. You may as well be calling me a 'Bandersnatch' for all the insultive value 'liberal' has (i.e. none)

Now that said and done - if can can work up from the son of coalminer in a land far far away,  through the military and educate myself through University, then move overseas and manage to live a successful life (without, I might add, any Government assistance - I don't come from the 3rd world), then any fault with your own life is from within yourself.
It probably has very little to do with what those 'darn liberals' did, or those 'rich liberals'  say or what 'that hoochie momma liberal President' did.

It has to do with yourself.

It's easy to point the finger and be angry at the world - but the simple fact remains that it's much easier to bitch than to actually strive..

As for Clinton -- who cares?  Why the 'Leader of the Free World' couldn't get him some decent looking tail is more cause for concern than where he put his cigar...

Hate crimes are cowardly displays of ignorance no matter where they occur.
Be it British tourists in France, an Egyptian shot in a 7-11 in Sept 2001, a black man chained and dragged behind a truck in Texas, or Muslim women pelted with garbage in the suburbs of Las Vegas.

None are acceptable - and we should all look towards our own backyards before casting stones.

,it just goe,s to show what cowardly scum they are if it was not for us and america they would have been wiped out by hitler. :-)

And we can go back to History and find Frances part in helping shape America -- and if not for Spain the ships wouldn't have been sent - and if not for Italy Columbus wouldn't have sailed - and you can go back and extrapolate ad nausium on into the ludicrous:

If not for Odin Hitler could have won WWII!!!!!!
(Any norseman can trace his family line back to Odin, and the Russians were decendants of the Rus, Vikings, and if not for the mistakes fighting a war on two fronts, then Hitler could well have won...)

During that whole UN debarcle I had two close friends visiting France -- Americans -- and on returning the only thing they reported is that they had a wonderful time, made many great new friends, and would heartily recommend any and all to go visit.

This 'France is the Anti-Christ' bullsh*t is getting really old.
