Thank you for this. I’m sure many Freepers will come in saying this is immature and things that the left would do...well look who;s taking over.

Get over yourselves high and mighty GOPers

What are the percentages based on? I heard Alta Vista serach engine was founded by a conservative—haven’t researched it yet.

Even the so-called conservative or less-liberal engines buy their data from Google.

Come on guys, this is silly.

Can’t we be the loyal opposition without becoming DU-lite or RightWingKos?

I’m 100% sure the Dems will over-reach in the next two years. Let’s work towards gaining ground in the Congress in 2010.

Remember, the Dems were in the wilderness for 8 years. Let’s not act as they did. Let’s be better.

And invest in a tax lawyer who shares our view of government.

Not a penny more for socialism than necessary.

Take a sabbatical, if you can.

Starve the slavers.

Who is going to afford shopping with Obama at the helm?

I think there’s a good possibility that by spring, any organized boycott will be a moot point because the economy will have slipped past the point of recession and into depression. There might not be much to boycott! The $800B bailout inspired no confidence, and neither do socialist politicians at the helm. The markets here in America will reflect this.

There’s a great entrepreneurial opportunity.

I was pleased to notice PetSmart is a RED company. Its my dog’s favorite store.

Thank God Baldwin Pianos is also a red company, (I know this from personal experience.) I’d hate to get rid of my beloved SD-10 concert grand.

IMHO, this is silly.

Having said that, the only companies in the list I use on a regular basis are Google and Netflix.

Anybody know of a conservative lead search engine or movie lending service? Who ya gonna call?

I don’t understand. What are the criteria for determining whether a firm is liberal or conservative? How are these percentages arrived at?

I am willing to act as much as possible, but I need to know what the rationale is for making these decisions.

Spend NOTHING! Buy as much stuff as you can from the used market, grind the economy to a halt. And try as much as you can to avoid spending even a penny in the states that went for Zero, they need to be punished severely.

I think a more effective strategy is to put greedy Americans on a severe diet. “Starve the beast”, as one FReeper aptly put it. Every time you walk into a store of any kind, whether it’s a clothing store, bookstore, deli, whatever, ask yourself, “how do I think this person voted?” It will be easier to answer with some people than others, especially depending on where you live. Where I live, I think I can approach 99% certainty in a LOT of cases. Then, ask yourself, “is there any way, ANY WAY AT ALL, that I can avoid supporting this person’s paycheck? Is there any way I can compensate for the $500 Obama Check(tm) that this person will steal from my wages? Use your imagination — I’m sure you can.

1. KEEP your old car. Detroit unions share a LOT of blame for MI going Dem year after year. If you’re a fan of American cars as I am, fine, but KEEP YOUR RIDE. It’s cheaper to keep it running than to buy new, and you’re starving the beast in the process. If the industry crashes, perhaps you’ll be doing MI a favor in the very long run when they won’t be beholden to those unions.

2. NEVER buy movies — buy a Hauppauge capture card and a $50 DVD burner. Buy Sage TV for DVR software. You’ll have hundreds of dollars in a short while and NOT ONE CENT will go to Hollywood. I made that decision years ago.

3. Don’t eat out, cook instead, even if it’s from the frozen food section. How did those restaurant workers vote? I’ll bet I can guess with surprising accuracy.

4. Needle and thread isn’t for wusses. It’s just a wrench for your clothes. “The right tool for the right job”, as our fathers and grandfathers used to scream at us. Save your dollars.

5. “Did I make interest work for me today?” Write it on an index card NOW. I literally just did that and I have it on my TV as a constant reminder. Don’t spend your hard-EARNED — EARNED!!! — dollars on greedy losers who want to steal from you. Make your money work for you, not them.

Email and share. Append your ideas as you can. Please. It’s time to hang together.

It’s hard to see how some of these companies did as much damage as other big names which supported the MSM with their advertising dollars. For example, Coors Beer (which is junk anyway) was once owned by conservatives (I don’t know if they still are), but their ad spending makes them a major enabler of the Leftist propaganda machine.
