If any of you are offended by Whoopi Goldberg's disgusting and outrageous remarks at John Kerry's fundraiser the other night, please boycott SlimFast products and write them to let them know how you feel about her as a spokesperson.

Already sent it out from another post.

Sent the following message:

After reading about the "Hatefest" Democrat Party in
Manhattan, N.Y., and the words that were spoken by the participants,
including Whoopie Goldberg, I and my wife wish you to know
we will not be purchasing Slim Fast any longer.
We, instead will be opting for Wal-Mart Equate brand,
or some other product that is more to our liking, and way of thinking.

All the diet meal companies (Slimfast, Lean Cuisine, Weightwatchers, etc) donate heavily to the Democrat party. I don't know why, either.

Done. I was polite, except when I called her their 'pig of a spokesperson'. Otherwise, I was very direct and polite.

Here is my letter to Slimfast:

After hearing about Whoopie Golberg and her vulgar, disrespectful and insulting words about the United States President, at a partisan Democratic fundraiser, I question her ability to represent Slim-fast.

If she continues to represent your product I will stop buying it immediatly. Iwill findish the two cans of powder I have and find alternative products.

Realize that when Goldberg insults our President, particlarly in such a vulgar fashion, she alienates half the country....can Slimfast really afford to lose half of their potential market?

Speaking of Whoopi cushions...

I was thinking of trying SlimFast, not because of a weight problem, but more for a lack of appetite. Oh well, they have store brands that are probably the same thing at a more reasonable price.

Here's mine:

I'm sure that you have heard about the tasteless remarks that Ms. Goldberg made at a political fundraiser recently. What Ms. Goldberg does during her comedy routine is one thing, when she does it at a political function, and aims filthy remarks towards the President, then that is something else completely.

You might want to consider hiring a spokesperson with more class.

Sincerely,

I think she falls into the Hollywood Squares category like the rest of the "has beens". Notice most of the Bush Haters celebs are old timers still living in the 60's?

I think using SlimFast was scraping the bottom of the barrel for an advertiser as well. You actually know anyone that uses that stuff?

Edwards said it was "a great honor" to be there and insisted, "This campaign will be a celebration of real American values [sic!]."

Kerry thanked all the performers for "an extraordinary evening," hailed the "great producers" - Harvey Weinstein of Miramax and Jann Wenner - and said "every performer tonight ... conveyed to you the heart and soul of our country [sic!!!]."

Hollyweird does NOT represent American values, or the heart and soul of our country, in any way whatsoever!!

This election is shaping up to be a contest between anyone with decent or Christian values (whatever his or her usual political leanings) and the moral FILTH and POISON represented by Hollyweird and the media and advertising community, the feminazis, and the gays. I vote NO to all of them!!!!

As for SlimFast, it doesn't work anyway, in terms of long-term weight loss and health. Don't beleive their hype, whether spread by Whoopi the Obscene or by anyone else. Boycott SlimFast for ALL the right reasons!!!!

By the way, I see from your screen name that you are a Christian, as I am. May God bless you!!!!

I sent my e-mail to Slimfast earlier today. I am now trying to find an earlier thread that also listed an address for Unilever, the parent company of SlimFast. I can't find that thread anymore. I ran several searches. Can somebody post the link? Thanks

Here's what I wrote:

I use your products several times a year when I want to take off some quick weight. However, I cannot support your company as long as you have this woman as your spokesperson. While you pay her, she represents you. She did not do you well the other night. If you feel strongly about her, go ahead and keep her on. Your business will go down. I guarantee it. I'll find another product to use as will everybody I speak to. This just wasn't Whoopi giving her opinion as a US citizen, this was a crude, drunken tirade. It's your choice, it's who you want to be as a Company. I wish you good luck with your decision.

No one should use slimfast at all.

It's unhealthy and counter-productive.

Kerry could be seen laughing uproariously during part of Goldberg's tirade - and neither he nor Edwards voiced a single objection to its tone when they spoke to the crowd.

They hailed the fund-raiser as a great event.

Edwards said it was "a great honor" to be there and insisted, "This campaign will be a celebration of real American values."

The nasty anus-mouth WhooPIG has been spewing her visceral hatred of the president and conservatives and Republicans for quite some time now.

You people are just catching on?

I have used your product and really like it. However your choice of Whoppie Goldberg

as spokesperson leaves me questioning your company.

I was brought up to respect this country and its leaders.Sometimes I do not

agree with them,but I give the office they hold the respect it

deserves.I used to appreciate Ms.Goldberg,but that was before she went into the

gutter with her disgusting remarks about the President.

When your company associates itself with people who try to disguise hate as humor ,it

is by extension wallowing in the gutter with them.

For that reason I will no longer be using any of your products.

Thank You.

Here's what I wrote:

Hello. Whoopi Goldberg's comments (at the recent fundraiser in NYC) toward our President were beyond poor taste. They were despicable during a time of war, when our men and women are fighting and dying for our freedoms.

A successful company like Slimfast need not stoop to use someone as bitter and classless as Ms. Goldberg for its' spokesperson.

As long as she is a spokesperson, my family and I will not purchase nor use any products associated with your company.

Thank you for your attention,

Fellow Freepers, I urge you to send an email to eight or ten of your non-freeper friends, telling them to send an anti-Whoopi email to Slimfast. I did so and have been delighted by the swift response of my friends; they're all sending emails to Slimfast as I type this! There appears to be much hostility towards Whoopi Goldberg out there, so let's harness it!
