Um, that's good. Why are you pointing it out?
Nobody's questioned your right to boycott.

wizzler, Don't waste your breath. Too many FReepers are convinced that conservatives have to make their voice heard by using the same tactics street activists and radical leftists have employed since the 60s. I think it's because they (a) have no life, and (b) can't differentiate between a true conservative and a radical idealogue.
I say "have no life" because I have watched how they wet themselves with excitement any time they get a headline or a mention on C-SPAN. They go out, week after week, standing on street corners, waving clever posters and dressing up like satan (Sorry, Dr. Raoul). They believe they're fighting the good fight and making a difference, but they're just an embarrassment, if you ask me. They organize boycotts, never stopping to consider that radicals are the ones who determine what they eat, what they consume, what they buy and what they listen to on the basis of politics. Conservatives are not idealogues. Conservatives are not street activists. WE are the salt of the earth, hard-working family people who don't have time to battle the crowd nobody takes seriously anyway. (Notice how swayed President Bush and Prime Minister Blair were by the millions of anti-war protestors worldwide?)

Conservatives are not idealogues.

Conservatives are not radicals.

Conservatives do not organize boycotts.

Conservatives do not thrive on street theatre of the absurd (to grab headlines/gain attention).

Conservatives do not worship politics.


Hey, look at me. Now I'm wasting my breath! HA!
