Celebs Mangle Facts, Call for Wendy's Boycott Over ObamaCare Cutbacks
Breitbart ^

Posted on 01/08/2013 10:17:35 PM PST by chessplayer

Liberal celebrities are piling on the Wendy's fast food chain, facts and economic realities be darned.

Dan Savage, Nathan Fillion and Sarah Silverman are tweeting for others to join their Wendy's boycott after news leaked that the hamburger chain will be slashing some workers' hours due to restrictions placed upon them by ObamaCare.

Too bad the trio didn't read the fine print - or look beyond standard far-left outlets like ThinkProgress. The worker cuts in question are only applicable to a handful of Wendy's outlets, not the whole chain itself.

..... LOL .... they are responding because they have clueless perception that the layoffs are a result of political posturing against Obamacare .....

..... they still don't have a clue that it just might be a necessary financial move for survival because of the financial stress as a result of the Blessed and Holy Obamacare sent to us from the One they worship.

.... After all .... something so genuinely wonderful could never cause any negative effects or problems for anyone .... could it?

I need to quit clicking on anything that has "Celebrities" in the title.

I am (was?) a BIG fan of Natahan Fillion since "Firefly" and it just HURTS reading that he is as stupid as so many of our "stars".

WHO DEY?????????????????????
I can honestly say I have heard of none of them.

I have to fall back on that great philosopher/humanitarian/elephant dung picker upper, Joe Don Looney’s ‘words of wisdom’.

IF THE SUPER BOWL IS SO IMPORTANT WHY HAVE IT EVERY YEAR?

HOW CAN SOMETHING BE CALLED THE GREATEST EVENT OF ALL TIME WHEN 500 BILLION CHINAMEN HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT?

My employer has “only” a $25,000 annual limit ,so got a waiver because obamacare mandates over a million $$ annual medical limit.MY employer certified that coverage at that level is unaffordable..

Nathan Fillion is a Canadian. Who cares what he thinks about the U.S.?

If he doesn’t like it, he can haul his arse home, across the northern border.

My bud works here for WB, and Fillion was the voice of Green Lantern on one of WB’s DC direct to video movies. From what he told me, Fillion is an arrogant ass clown.

Doesn’t surprise me.

Sometimes people get caught up in the character but not the actor.

Often times that “Actor” is a flaming pile of feces.

Not saying that Fillion is Feces or anything......

Yeah, Silverman had a cute schtick many years ago when she was young. I don’t even know if she’s still working these days, although she did pop up on ‘Monk’ a few years ago. I guess it can’t really be a surprise to anybody that she’s a moron.

See Nathan doesn’t have to worry no more.
Now he’s “CASTLE”......Whatever that is....
Just like David Caruso, Shelly Long and that sidekick from Conan he believes he has a huge future just from his looks and brilliant acting career.

Good Luck with that Nathan......

sad to see you go....

He is a D class celebrity.
He was the captain of the ship on the show called Firefly.
He was the captain of the ship on the movie called Serenity.

Now i guess he’s some loud-mouthed liberal douchebag from the show “Castle”

FIRE his pretty boy ass!!!

I only recall Sarah Silverman from the episode of Star Trek Voyager when they go back into the past and she plays a radio telescope operator at an observatory.
