I would not be at all surprised if this move really backfires on them.

They can be welcoming as they like for people coming to buy something. That does not require them to pay money to support actively sexist and perverted organizations.

Yet one more false syllogism on the path to hell.

"Wal-Mart has always been a favorite of God-fearing Middle American customers who hold traditional family values," said Peter LaBarbera, the group's founder and president. "I'm very surprised that Wal-Mart would now bite the hand that feeds it and thumb its nose at those very customers."

It's hilarious when Christians adopt organizations as one of "their own" and then get all offended about being betrayed.

It's the mix metaphors that bother me...I suspect this whole thing is a straw man riding a trojan horse.

It is obviously trying to do what is best for the company, not the bi-partisan critics.

It's not doing it very well, especially if the critics are bi-partisan. That would indicate the opposition is from across the political spectrum.

Joining the FRC in criticizing Wal-Mart's new alliance ... is Americans for Truth.

I don't think I've previously heard of them. Here's their website: Americans For Truth
