July 13, 2004 -- WASHINGTON — Some Republican activists are launching a boycott of SlimFast diet products to protest SlimFast spokeswoman Whoopi Goldberg's X-rated rant against President Bush at a New York fund-raiser for Democrat John Kerry last week.

Chat pages on pro-Bush Web sites like FreeRepublic.com are posting links for complaints to SlimFast or parent company Unilever, along with reports from angry consumers about what they wrote in their complaints.

Thank you for posting Unilever's product line. I will no longer purchase three brands of items (Dove, Bertolli, and Knorr) I have used for years.

More often than not, my teenaged children do the shopping for me. They already know to double check that no Heinz products make it into the shopping cart. They will be informed of these additional items as well.

I can switch olive oil brands but Hellmann's mayo hurts. FWIW, Slimfast is the most gawd-awful stuff I honestly don't know how ANYBODY drinks it. blech!

who drank one too many cans of UglyFast

Nicely done. Seriously LOL here.

Whoopie was in that death march (abortion) months ago in Washington with Ashley Judd. Remember?

[Milligan]

Whoppi just endorsed a new diet program. Drink alcohol out of the bottle and don't eat for a couple of days. It's called skidrow fast.

[dfwgator]

Don't think so. She has kids and a series of boyfriends.

Whoopi does love the "White Prize" that's for sure.

[i]That's like "Snap-on Tools" hiring Elen Degeneres to be their spokesperson -- actually, that one works.[/i]

Now I personally have no problem with Ellen Degeneres. She's a funny, clean comic. She's a nice change of pace from the Chris Rock's 'mutherf***er, biatch, etc' school of comedy.

The sad part is that she was just a tool of the liberal left's homosexual agenda. They urged her on to reveal her sexuality on TV (who f'ing cares) and when she did they dropped her like the hypocrites we all know they are. Her career suffered for a long time after that.

Personally, I couldn't care what the hell your chosen 'lifestyle' is. Just keep it off the TV and out of my living room.

Switch to the Atkins Advantage Shake, which contains 20 grams of protein and only 1g of sugar.

OR you can drink EDGE carb control with 15g of Protein and 0g of sugar.

I've found out that Slimfast and Ensure are LOADED with sugar. It spikes the appetite.

The last line of the artcile explains why Slimfast has choosen Goldberg as their spokesman and why they will keep her in the spotlight representing their product:

Company president F. Daniel Abraham is a major Democratic donor who, with his wife, has given $1.2 million to groups working to defeat Bush.

We're a "Chat Page"?! We're a "Pro-Bush," site?

20/m/NJ here...a/s/l? Looking for a pro-Bush hottie who likes to party LOLZ JK LMAO /sarcasm

[paltz]

BTW, is 'Whoopi' a lesbian?

Don't think so. She has kids and a series of boyfriends.

So? That doesn't mean a thing

[PBRSTREETGANG]

She has kids and a series of boyfriends.

One of them was Ted Danson. (That's a checkmark in the lesbian column.)

Here in Houston, CITGO gas is cheaper by a substantial amount. I've seen it as low as $1.60 a gallon, which is $1.78 at the Texaco I passed this morning.

Didn't Jenny Craig or some diet scammers hire Monica?

The beginning of the "high protein" craze, if memory serves.
