Just shown on Fox News --
Ben and Jerry's co-founder Ben Cohen is co-sponsoring a full page ad in towmorrow's NY Times allegedly showing dead people floating in water in New Orleans over the declaration that 'If Bush hadn't sent the Army to an illegal war in Iraq there would have been enough troops in the US to avoid the death toll from Hurricane Katrina.'
Does it get any more loathsome than this?

I gave up B&J ice cream long ago for just this reason.

I feel very good that even when I have gone grocery shopping, and Ben & Jerry's ice cream is marked down so low that they won't make a dime, I don't buy it. :)

Oh, I can't boycott something I never bought in the first place. I wouldn't take their ice cream if they gave it to me free. Never liked them or their politics and ice cream doesn't have to be that expensive unless they feel it is the "in thing" to buy that. Not me. Breyers and Blue Bell for good ice cream. Ben and Jerry? Sounds like a cartoon. Oh wait... :)

Not that I am recommending this idea but one could decide to buy a pint or two of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, take it out of the cold case and then change their mind say, in the soap product isle, and then maybe put the pints of ice cream next to another Uni-Lever product as one walks away.
Not that I am condoning that type of behavior.....

Ben and Jerry are the Mutt and Jeff team of the far left.
Their ice cream $#ck$ and I wouldn't even buy it if was the greatest stuff around.
200 years ago, Ben and Jerry would have been ridden out of Vermont on a rail wearing a tar and feather overcoat.

I think most people are smart enough to understand what happened in New Orleans.
And as information dribbles out about the true details of what happened and the total corruption of the city from the top down people will understand just how stupid and hateful this is.

I think we can all stop looking for the stupid "lost tribe" of Israel...
Apparently, most of the "stupid tribe" ended up in America...
Many are in Congress and there are large numbers in Hollywood, on University faculties, and the media..
Others became rich and famous as Capitalists, and now behave like Communists.
We should approach Israel with a "plan" that would allow us to return our excess of the "stupid Jews" to Israel in exchange for their over supply of REAL Jews..

Well .. I don't buy Ben and Jerry's product - and I haven't since before they sold it.
Ben is an idiot leftist .. what more can I say. He has too much money and too much time on his hands. The perfect patsy for the dems to use.

The problem with Blue Bell is that they use corn syrup instead of sugar which to me is almost blasphemous.

"I can't figure out whether Ben and Jerry are socialists or commies."
I know..it always amazes me that people like B & J, George Soros, Jon Corzine make HUGE profits in a capitalist society, yet want to prevent anyone else from doing the same. It really is an "elitist" position.

Their ice cream is nothing but gum and gelatin slop. It can't hold a light to all natural ice cream, and I don't mean those that say "All Natural Flavors."

Thanks for the link. They will certainly not get my business. I told them I read their recent statements and that they should get their heads out of the frezzer since it appears that their collective IQs are sub-freezing.
