Last time I looked, Radio Shack stood with Glenn. I’m glad, I just bought a new shortwave radio, a Grundig G6 Aviator, the Buzz Aldrin edition. ON another place, I was in a battle with a lib and I told her that, boy did I get her goat and I’m proud of it. It is time we used Saul Alinsky tactics against them, sometimes we have to get down and fight dirty in order to defeat them.

[Nowhere Man]

Oops, just checked the site, Radio Shack did succumb to the liberals. B-( Damn, I always liked them although I do wish they would get closer to their electronics hobby roots. I'll write them a nice but firm letter and see what I get.

Why are these companies and CEO's afraid of Barack Obama? I'm not, I'm just a working class Pittsburgh Hunky. If they are afraid, I'm willing to let them hire me along with many of us, I'd go down to the White House for them and tell that duck brained President the truths of life and where he needs to get off. I'll look him straight in the eye.

[betty boop]

And I can confirm I will never buy another Sargento product again.

I'll join you in that, Behind Liberal Lines. Nor any SE Johnson product either.

Glenn Beck does not engage in hate speech. That President Obama is a racist seems a most reasonable inference, based on who his friends are and who he hangs out with. To tell the truth is not engaging in hate speech.

Don’t empty the package before sending, by the time it gets to them it will stink as bad as they do..

[Nowhere Man]

The gecko doesn’t own the company. He takes orders from higher up. Crush the bosses but please let the little guy live.

Agreed, plus he can be useful as a spy if he is willing. Anyways, I wonder if he is on his way out since we are seeing more of that stupid hunk of money with those freaky eyes. Now, him, I'd launch a JDAM down his throat but the gecko, I have nothing against him and if he is booted, we might see a new Freeper. B-)

I have erroneously boycotted Kohl's for over 5 years.

Fixed it for you. Keep up the good work. I'll keep shopping at Kohl's while not supporting Herb Kohl in any way.

1978 — BATUS, Inc., the U.S. division of BAT Industries, (British American Tobacco) PLC, purchased an 80 percent stake in the Kohl?s Food and Department Stores and took complete control of the company. At that time, the Kohl family withdrew from the operations of the company.

Your Info is quite out dated.

In 1996,BATUS sold the Kohl's department stores,and two Marshall Field's

Really? Did you check your link thoroughly? Here is what I found at your link:

BAT has diversified into various fields at different times in its history. Its U.S. retail division, BATUS Retail Group, acquired Gimbel's, Kohl's, and Saks Fifth Avenue in the 1970s

My info is out of date? Was 1978 not in the 70s??

In 1996,BATUS sold the Kohl's department stores,and two Marshall Field's

Now, I don't believe Herb Kohl changed his initials to BAT. Do you? So, BAT sold Kohl's to a new investment group -- still not owned by Herb Kohl. Onward with the boycott.

Yes Dear!

There were no Kohl's Dept. Stores in my area in the 70’s. Not until 1991 did Kohl's appear in my area.

So you never even shopped at a Kohl's when the Kohl family owned it, yet you started a boycott? Makes sense...perhaps on Mars.

Once again you are missing the point.

Thanks For Playing.

Once again you are missing the point.

That's because there is no point to boycotting a business that is not owned by your target. Herb Kohl owns the Milwaukee Bucks. Perhaps you should focus on the Bucks. All you accomplish in boycotting Kohl's Department Stores is harming your neighbors who are trying to make a living.

1) None of my neighbors work there. Kohl's is located in a near by city.

2) The name Kohl's alone,
Keeps me and others away.

3) The city Kohl's is located in,is a liberal
Cesspool. Therefore I make a conscious effort never to enter its city limits.

Interesting. A boycott of a place you never visit. Do you still believe that Herb Kohl owns Kohl's?

[Toddsterpatriot]

Maybe she’ll boycott the Federal Reserve next?

Yes I do!
Kohl is a CROOK! I believe he has conflicting interest in it! And has all along.BATUS is well known for its shady deals and market manipulation!

Since I have decided to Boycott Kohl's or any other business's he owns or has interests in,I will do so.

Thanks For Playing,

Subject Over.

[10Ring]

I got it. She can boycott the Federal Reserve because that’s where Herb Kohl keeps his Milwaukee Bucks. /groan

[10Ring]

Thanks For Playing,

LOL! You're welcome. I've enjoyed the non-boycott of Kohl's. But, not as much as throwing away the Sargento cheese -- that you already paid for. Doh!

[katiekins1]

Sargento cheese — that you already paid for. Doh!

I paid for it, therefore I will do with it as I please. I choice to Trash it! MY CHOICE! Apparently you don't stand for moral principal or can't comprehend people that do.
When I make a commitment, I stick with it! No matter what.

I suggest you respect those that do.

Cheers!

Keep your chin up, Katie. FRegards.
