Before jumping ship do some investigation as to where there donations are going and what they call charity.

You might be surprised at who collects the majority of their donated money. Their donations are probably just as politically correct as their judgment about the Salvation Army Kettle ringers.

If you check out Buyblue.com you will see that Target is a "red" corporation which donates 72% to Republican causes. Home Depot donates 94% so don't count them out either. While corporate might be a grinch right now, the employees deserve our support. The picture is more complex than the article implies.

Yeah, I would be interested in seeing who gets their donations. It would be nice to see whether they all are diverted to politically correct causes, and how much was given to the Salvation Army this year (probably more than they will give to the Salvation Army next year).

That reminds me of the blurb on all the Paul Newman food products, wherein it says that after taxes all proceeds go to charity.

I suspect that the kind of "charitable" organizations Paul Newman donates to are none that I'd care to support.
