Good point. Thinking consumers will now boycott the rest of the products.

They will never learn. They are liberals through and through. Just look at the filth films and titillating television productions. If they had a conscience, they would take a stand. But there's just too much money in it for them to change. It's just not going to happen.

According to newspaper reports, the CEO of Slim Fast has donated huge sums of money in an effort to defeat President Bush.

Time to let them know what we think of that, too.

"Hate to rain on your parade, but....This drop is based on 1st qtr sales drop, not the sudden Whoopi controversy"

SOOOooo, We have timing on our side. They are already hurting, and we apply MORE pressure! I don't completely buy the coincidence, the pressure must be intense because they covered it here in NY on the local news last night. And where did the website face go?

KEEP up the phone calls!!!!!! And when they dump her it would be nice to hear about it LOUD & CLEAR. Who knew they dumped Glover?

All that doesn't explain why Whoopi's face disappeared. I believe we can make a difference.

That may be true, but the bigger story that was advanced was we affected stock price by lowering sales. That had already taken place in the market prior to our outrage..

AS a former Marine, I must disagree with your use of this picture, which has been modified to express this vulgarity to whatever celebrity, politician, or whoever at the time said celebrity runs off at the mouth, bashes Bush, or makes a propoganda film as in the case with Michael Moore.

The majority of Marines are professionals and do not engage in this type behaviour. I understand there are those that do at times, but all entities have their bad apples.

However, modification (photoshop) of this picture to splash vulgarities at the "anti-Bush celebrity of the day" does nothing to further our cause nor preserve our image. And in this case with Whoopi, it only brings us down to her level.

So please, although I understand the sentiment, please refrain from the degradation of those professionals...the few, the proud...the Marines.

Semper Fi!

Hate to rain on your parade, but....This drop is based on 1st qtr sales drop, not the sudden Whoopi controversy

Unilever shares down on sales stall 'Action being taken' to address sales disappointment By Emily Church, CBS.MarketWatch.com Last Update: 9:46 AM ET April 28, 2004 LONDON (CBS.MW) -

Joe,

I'm not necessarily suggesting that the drop yesterday was from this whole boycott, I don't know either way. However, your article was dated back on April 28, 2004. UN dropped 6% that day. Yesterday's drop was a new 2% drop, and it occured after the news you posted had been factored in for over three months.

I seriously doubt your article and the things it discussed were the cause of yesterday's drop.
