Did you speak out when movie studios would not touch "The Passion"???

Or when Rush Limbaugh got booted from ESPN, or Anita Bryant from Florida orange juice...

Here we have an example of a multi-millionaire who nonetheless fails to understand that business cannot prosper by driving away customers in great thundering herds. A 6-year-old tyke at a makeshift sidewalk lemonade stand understands quite well what appears to be beyond the comprehension of Ms. Whoopsy-doo.

Other reactions to Ms. Goldberg’s dismissal from Slim-Fast have been quite laughable, albeit predictable. Asa Khalif, head of Racial Unity USA in Pennsylvania, and self-proclaimed “diversity promoter” released a statement relating to Goldberg’s firing. He stated that “I smell racism from beginning to end. . . . SlimFast must realize that black women have every right to voice their views.”

And SlimFast, as an employer, has every right to voice their views. Voicing their views by taking her off the ads is their right as a Publicly traded company.

Well-written, but maybe a limerick would lighten the mood.

Whoopie thought she could crack jokes
At a couple Republican blokes
She dropped down a notch
While she talked of her crotch
And thought she was a voice of the folks.


No? Well, I tried. {{{jm}}}

BTW, it might not be a bad idea for each of us to contact SlimFast with a note of thanks and let them know we intend to go right out and buy a pack of their product. I don't even need the stuff and I intend to do this -- just as I started dining at Denny's when that company stood up to a frivolous race-baiting shakedown attempt and declared that enough was enough.

"Whoppi got a whuppin"

And she will continue to take a whuppin. What corporation in its right mind will bring her aboard after what she did to SlimFast? This little fool saw what happened to Rosie O. and failed to draw the obvious conclusion. Only in America can somebody as brain-dead as these two prosper.

I don't know about the rest of you, but it seems clear to me that Whoopi's comments are fully protected.

I found the reference book that she and the Left are using:

Article [I.]

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of liberal speech, or of those elements of the press or persons, who are approved of by progressive organizations; The right to free speech shall be free from negative financial or other monetary implications including, but not limited to boycotts for any person meeting the specific requirements of the progressive ideology as espoused by the ACLU, NOW, NAACP and DNC; free speech can be selectively enforced should any member of a dissenting party, such as the RNC, wish to exercise these rights in a manner deemed to be either inflammatory to those groups previously mentioned, or as used to benefit the Conservative movement; for the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

lol, while I was reading this piece I kept thinking what journalist uses such a great vocabulary and come to find out it's you. Send it to TownHall.com perhaps they'll consider it.

I did contact Slim-Fast the other day as soon as I heard they had the good sense to lose her as dead weight and promised them eternal allegiance to their diet beverages.

Good luck getting this published, and let us know how it works out.

A vulgar act
that's lacking tact
has made a fact
a lost contract
Another season,
Another reason
For firing whoopee.

I was trying to come up with a response to Whoopi pointing at her privates every time she said the president's name, but had some trouble. At first, I thought pointing to my butt would be a good rejoinder, but then I realized my a**hole is too good for her. The only other option wasn't practical, as I don't have access to a heaping pile of sh*t. Oh well.

After they dropped Whoopi, I wrote them and said I would now consider buying their products.

Congressman Billybob said this about Whoopi:

"sensible corporations put morals clauses in their contracts. These clauses allow them to dump spokesmen whenever they do or say something that will embarrass the corporation and harm its sales"

While Whoopi is blaming the RNC, she should have READ her contract. THE ONLY PERSON TO BLAME IS HERSELF!!
