BOYCOTT THE WASHINGTON POST - Every ACTION has CONSEQUENCES

I'm all for everyone expressing their opinion, even those who wear the uniform of the United States Army. But I also hope that military commanders took the soldiers aside after the story and explained to them why it wasn't for them to disapprove of the American people.

BOYCOTT THE WASHINGTON POST Every ACTION has CONSEQUENCES

This is an affront to every citizen of the United States of America. Opinion – yes, free speech – yes, irresponsible, hurtful, unproductive - YES http://blog.washingtonpost.com/earlywarning/2007/01/the_troops_also_need_to_suppor.html#more

The Washington Post can use free speech to say, print and blog what ever it wants.

WE THE PEOPLE can choose NOT to buy the Washington post OR purchase products from their advertisers.

The WOT (War on Terror) has many fronts. Unfortunately, one major front happens to be here at HOME. Un-American propaganda as issued by the Washington Post is a continuing attack on WE THE PEOPLE.

WE THE PEOPLE must use every means necessary to combat this attack. The Washington Post continues to provide comfort and aid to the enemy. YOU have as a freedom loving individual a responsibility to act.

Buy your last copy of the Washington Post and contact directly as many of the Washington Posts’ advertisers and let them know you will NOT purchase their products of services. DO it today.

Here’s a previous boycott that seemed to have some success. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1749957/posts

Send an e-mail to Washington post ombudsman http://www.washpost.com/news_ed/ombudsman/index.shtml --------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Deborah Howell. Arkin’s rantings are an affront to me and EVERY American. I will do everything in my power to see that the Washington Post is run out of business. Free Speech is your right. I would never prevent you from speaking. All actions have consequences. I will be contacting your advertisers and using MY free speech to have them pull their advertising from your disgusting RAG you call a newspaper. You can stand on the street corner and talk all you want after the Washington Post is out of business.

This Washington Post can't even live up to it's own principles. http://www.washpost.com/gen_info/principles/index.shtml Eugene Meyer's Principles for The Washington Post Eugene Meyer had a vision of what makes a newspaper truly great, and that vision included serving the public according to seven principles. He offered them in a speech on March 5, 1935 and published them on his newspaper's front page.

The first mission of a newspaper is to tell the truth as nearly as the truth can be ascertained.

The newspaper shall tell ALL the truth so far as it can learn it, concerning the important affairs of America and the world.

As a disseminator of news, the paper shall observe the decencies that are obligatory upon a private gentleman.

What it prints shall be fit reading for the young as well as the old.

The newspaper's duty is to its readers and to the public at large, and not to the private interests of its owners.

In the pursuit of truth, the newspaper shall be prepared to make sacrifices of its material fortunes, if such a course be necessary for the public good.

The newspaper shall not be the ally of any special interest, but shall be fair and free and wholesome in its outlook on public affairs and public men.
