Daily Kos?Moveon.org targeting Fox local advertisers, Home Depot
AP ^ | Fri Jul 27th 2007 | By DAVID BAUDER

"Liberal activists are stepping up their campaign against Fox News Channel by pressuring advertisers not to patronize the network.

MoveOn.org, the Campaign for America's Future and liberal blogs like DailyKos.com are asking thousands of supporters to monitor who is advertising on the network. Once a database is gathered, an organized phone-calling campaign will begin, said Jim Gilliam, vice president of media strategy for Brave New Films, a company that has made anti-Fox videos.

The groups have successfully pressured Democratic presidential candidates not to appear at any debate sponsored by Fox, and are also trying to get Home Depot Inc. to stop advertising there."

Unfortunatly FNC has too many closet leftists which leak their bias into FNC reporting.

True, but it also lends truth to the "Fair and Balanced" mantra.

My company (Big Pharma) has spots on Fox 24/7. I spoke to our marketing people today, and they aren’t worried in the least.

FOX needs to report this as headline news every 1/2 hour for the next 2 weeks, specifically naming the people and organizations involved. Expose and let America see them.

...and while they're at it, they can finally help expose these two demonRat leaders, John Conyers Jr and Charlie Rangel! Both head powerful House committees! John Conyers chairs the House Judiciary Committee and Charlie Rangel, House Ways and Means!

On Oct 5, 2006, Democrat Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, John Conyers Jr, *gave a speech* to the World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime organization.

Or, if the long url above breaks up:

Before that he PUBLICLY ENDORSED THE MOVEMENT! See "Endorsers of the Call to Drive Out the Bush Regime Include...". (Conyers' endorsement appears immediately after Ward Churchill's)

Or, if the long url above breaks up:
http://tinyurl.com/ef6z6

FACT! World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime is a MAOIST- revolutionary movement initiated and controlled by the Revolutionary Communist Party!
(scroll down the list that appears to find the World Can't Wait organization --rwor.org is the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party) :
http://rwor.org/a/rwlink/links.htm

From David Horowitz's
FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

Profile: World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime (WCW)

*Revolutionary communist movement that stages protests against the Bush administration

*Organizes college and high-school students

*Founded in June 2005 by Charles Clark Kissinger, a longtime leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party

http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=7213

From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party, parent org behind World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime, the same organization that democrat Chair of the House Judiciary Committee endorsed, then gave a SPEECH to!

The RCP "Mission Statement": "Create Public Opinion, Seize Power! We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning. And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle. ":
http://revcom.us/a/v20/1000-1009/1000/barw.htm

Here's the Revolutionary Communist Party (see link below) boasting of a FULL PAGE 'World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime' ad of theirs which actually appeared in the New York Slimes.
(either "rwor.org" or "revcom.us" takes you to the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party). The NY Times allowed a 2nd full-page RCP/WCW ad to be run several months later! In fact, they are, or have very recently, ran another large ad.
http://www.rwor.org/a/028/who-hated-bush-ad.htm

From the World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime "Youth and Students" page:

"The Students Are Stirring | Print | E-mail Good interview by Ron Jacobs interviewing a SDS organizer in North Carolina who is organizing for the March 20th walkouts.

A Campus Antiwar Movement Begins to Make Its Mark

SDS = Students for a Democratic Society, a so-called "anti-war" (actually Maoist-revolutionary) organization which formed during the Vietnam era. They later split off into several other groups, one of which was the communist-revolutionary TERRORIST group The Weathermen.

Democrat Underground bloggers ("DUmmies") APPLAUD commie Conyers for signing the Revolutionary Communist Party call to "Drive Out the Bush Regime"

Read their outrageous comments here!

"Statement from [Democrat] Jim McDermott, U.S. Congressman from Washington To participants in the World Can't Wait actions today":
(rwor.org is the website of the REVOLUTIONARY COMMUNIST PARTY, and World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime is their Maoist "anti-war" front group)
http://rwor.org/a/024/more-voices-from-november-2.htm

Again, from the RCP website, rwor.org:

"Tearing Up the U.S. Paper Tiger in Korea: How 300,000 Chinese Troops Snuck into Korea and Kicked the Ass of the U.S. Armed Forces" RW #1059, June 18, 2000:

And here's some more evidence I dug-up on the commies in the demonRat party!

Is that DEMOCRAT House Ways and Means Chairman, Charlie Rangel, speaking at the podium of a Workers World Party / Troops Out Now rally???

But first, from the website of the Workers World Party, workers.org:

"On July 9 (1994), Workers World Party Chairperson Sam Marcy sent the following statement to Comrade Kim Jong Il, the Central Committee of the Workers Party of Korea and the State Funeral Committee of President Kim Il Sung.":

"Dear Comrade Kim Jong Il...

Workers World Party values our close, comradely relations with the Workers Party of Korea very highly. We are proud to have known Kim Il Sung as a great leader and a comrade in the international communist movement. ...

With comradely solidarity, Sam Marcy Chairperson, Workers World Party":

http://www.workers.org/marcy/cd/sam94/1994html/s940721.htm

...this next item is also from the website of the Workers World Party, workers.org:

PHOTO!...Democrat representative and Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee (also Korean war vet), Charlie Rangel, speaking at the podium of a PRO-NORTH KOREA Workers World Party / Troops Out Now rally in Harlem, New York, on March 19th, 2005, the 2nd anniversary of the start of the Iraq war. Also observe the photo to the immediate left of Rangel's. It is of commie and terrorist attorneys, Lynn Steward and Attorney General under LBJ, Ramsey Clark. Clark chairs the International Action Center (IAC) and served as counsel for Saddam Hussein at his war crimes trial:

See photos at this link:
http://www.workers.org/march19/index2.html

Here are a few not-so "anti-war" statements from the Workers World Party front, Troops Out Now. (clarifications within brackets were inserted by myself, a link to the original source is included at the end of the statements-LC) :

TROOPS OUT NOW: "It is time for the antiwar movement to acknowledge the absolute and unconditional right of the Iraqi people to resist the occupation of their country without passing judgment on their methods of resistance.[i.e., it's ok to saw the heads off of captured and bound hostages while they beg hopelessly for their lives, or to car bomb tens of freedom-seeking Iraqis at a time while they line up to join the police force or cast votes in the country's first ever free election. Even dragging school teachers out of a classroom and shooting them before the terrified eyes of their little students is cool with us. (this actually happened btw)-LC]...

their statement continues...

"Even the founding charter of the United Nations clearly affirms the right of an occupied people to resist by force of arms."

"We need to demand the immediate, complete and unconditional withdrawal of all U.S. occupation troops from Iraq."[what good little communist doesn't want a Russian-backed Iran to gain control of Iraq?-LC]

"We must support politically, morally and organizationally members of the U.S. armed services who are resisting the war, moreover, we must encourage this resistance." "There must no longer be any hesitation on the part of our movement regarding our support of the struggle of the Palestinian people to free themselves from occupation.[in other words, blowing up innocent civilians at restaurants and shopping malls is just fine with us-LC] As a movement we have made a huge step forward in this regard. There must be no turning back."

"We must work to facilitate the widest unity between all of the forces that are seriously organizing against the war and occupation."

All of the above statements, minus my 'clarifications', can be found at this Troops Out Now web page:

These rich white elitist snob loser liberals who treat black people like a bag of tokens need to get out of their hope for dead American troops layer as they wallow in their parent’s trust fund.

These are the jobless losers who do not care about anyone but themselves. Hate permeates from every pore in their bodies.

These liberals are bitter and angry that they have a Congress that has a 13% job approval.

These liberals are angry that the “front runner” is Hillary Clinton who not only voted for the war, but is responsible for the 14 year GOP congress that only ended this January.

Major advertisers are not scared of liberals protesting them.

Home Depot is not worried because the people who shop there work for a living and own their own homes.

Home Depot knows that limp wristed liberals do not shop at their stores because they could brake a nail or ruin their manicure, and those are the male liberals.

The Daily “Hope for dead American Troops” Kos can make their list.

Then I will know exactly were to shop every weekend.

Spread the word about how MoveOn.org itself welcomed racist, anti-Semitic, and anti-Catholic hate speech at its now-disgraced Action Forum.

http://www.stentorian.com/MoveOn/sideshow1.html for examples.

Oh, the Left is asking others to boycott the Home Depot because of FoxNews? Of course, these noisy liberal and fascist activists will not shop at Home Depot themselves, because they still live with their Daddy and Mommy, or are supported by them. Home Depot did cuddle up to this extremist (moveon-kos crowd) by helping the illegal aliens to harass/intimidate their customers on their parking lot. That did not work out well for Home Depot, and naturally they easily decided to refocus again on business/profit. Well, do the losers (moveon-kos) think that they can force the profit makers to change their business or advertisement strategies against their best customers, us?

Rip2005, get a domain name named ‘moveon-kos.org’ or ‘moveonkos_crowd.org’ for the benefit of Frippers. If not, let everybody have a chance to get it.
