Can't we keep up the boycott anyway? ;-)

And we would want to do that because......???

[TLBSHOW]

because they promote socialism.

My "we" sees no reason to support an organization that consistently acts like the Red Cross does. Its apology here sounds as genunine as yet another Ted Turner apology for yet another anti-Christian comment. Perhaps they apologize for it, but why support an organization that prefers to silence you and your values, except when it hurts their donations? Perhaps your "we" has a masochistic streak, and likes giving money to people who would rather gag you. My "we" notes there are multitudes of organizations out there that will take my money and still respect me in the morning. I prefer to donate my all to finite funds to them.

To drive the point home.

Organizations like these along with some religious organizations, because they are desperate for volunteers, are easily infiltrated by people with an anit-American agenda. They occasionally try to test their strength and get shot down. Over a period of time these people gain leadership positions and take control. It is easy to see if you are lookin for it.

And we would want to do that (keep up the boycott) because......???

A local mistake, although major, could have been corrected quickly and easily by the national organization. They had ample opportunity, but chose not to do so.

The national organization has shown its true colors.

They will never get another dime from me.

"And we would want to do that because......???"

Because the so-called "apology is not an apology"

It is a grudging retraction under pressure, a butt covering exercise, and an exercise in damage control.

If we do not continue punitive measures they will refert to type as soon as they think our memories have dimmed.

WOW! I never expected such a response...and all negative towards the Red Cross. I guess they're a pretty bad bunch.

That being the case, I sure wouldn't want them in charge of the world's blood supply. I also wonder why Liddy Dole found them worthy of her services.
