I'd hate to see any advertiser pull ads because of political pressure...Ours or theirs.

The above is an intelligent and noteworthy statement. But, the mob smells blood and craves for someone to lynch.
Compare the posts made when they all thought Olive Garden had pulled with posts after Olive Garden denied this.

"Olive Garden is GREAT!", "I'm takin' the family, even the mother-in-law, to eat at Olive Garden tonight!", "This Saturday is our wedding anniversary. Nothing would say 'I love you' more than a night out at Olive Garden", "You want REAL Eye-tal-yun food? Try Olive Garden!"

- then O.G. denies pullings ads

"Olive Garden sucks!", "I wouldn't let my dog eat at Olive Garden!", "Only liberal commie pinkos eat at Olive Garden", "FIRE Olive Garden!"

Doesn’t this indicate a degree of shallowness (dare I say ignorance?) among posters?

Well, yeah. Dave fired his million dollar harpoon at a teen and her mother. And she sent it back to him. On his dime. And landed it on his desk. Just a warning shot, mind you.

People want results. Going after a sponsor seems a good approach, but a better one is to reduce 'Ol Dave's viewership. The market will take care of the rest.

I watched his interviews with Hillary so I could reassure myself that she remained shallow and he was even shallower. Nothing they could talk about would resonate with a free people, nothing. They're selling collectivism, nothing more. I'm happy to report his show won't grace my TV screen any longer.
