BOYCOTT FUNGUS SPREADING…
I have to wonder how long it will before corporate boards begin to demand Karl Rove’s head on a pike. Rove has been the mastermind behind the homophobic surge in the Republican party that has brought down two of its own: Mark Foley and Ted Haggard.
I don’t think Rove anticpated the backlash towards one of the party’s biggest contributors.
From The Advocate:
National conservative Christian organization Operation Rescue/Operation Save America plans to boycott retail chain Wal-Mart’s bid to become a member of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, its director said Friday.
“We’re dealing with a corporation that was built on family-friendly principles,” said the Reverend Flip Benham, the group’s director. “What we as the church have to do is help Wal-Mart do what’s right.”
This decision came shortly after the Missouri Baptist Convention announced its own plans for a boycott of Wal-Mart due to its efforts to reach out to gay and lesbian consumers as well its decision to stock the Plan B contraceptive pill, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported last week.
I’m almost willing to call for a suspension of my little toothpaste buycott in support of Wal Mart on this issue.
