    I didn't see that BiR.

    I don't think either side is tolerant. I don't know that we as humans are really all that capable of tolerating views that move too far away from ours. Look what starts happening here when a gap starts to occur . . .

    So one of these statments is true:
    1. One side is just as good as the other.
    2. One side is just as bad as the other.

    Regards, hope all is well,

    That's uncalled for Hillclimber! You need to apologize.

    Meh, directness has its virtues.

    Olbermann Colmes Dobbs O'Reilly Hannity

    Not to scale.

    O'Reilly on JetBlue is how it's done when it succeeds. This one won't.


    That's not what I said :laugh: :laugh: - is it? I said it could affect the effectiveness of a boycott.

    But you want to go in the credibility and truth direction? First, blogs on the left need to get ahold of "reality". This PR:

    they're claiming as proof that their boycott is "working" means nothing, since that company - Home Depot - has never been a FOXNEWS sponsor. Bites.

    As usual, all contumely and no substance.

    But thanks for your input anyway, hillclimber1: your comments say more about you than they do about me......

    Regards anyway,

    After a little pondering...:confused:

    I believe both of them may be true, but #1 made me pause to think.

    One must remember here that the real rason behind the liberal "boycott" is not economic at all, but an effort to censor free speech.

    As usual.

    mmmm That may be true. But isn't the converse also true? When the right boycotts, it isn't really economic either.

    The pocketbook is just a means to an end.

    It depends on what they are boycotting.

    Liberal's main goal here is to shut up what they consider to be a "conservative" voice in the media.

    Yes, but I think the same can be said for the right. The main goal is to stop the "liberalization" of America. Either way both sides are trying to gain a foothold over the other, they are, in effect, trying to win. The question is whether either side is really accomplishing anything of substance for the American people. At this point I can say no.

    Could be, but I can't think of any. Maybe you can refresh my memory.

    What boycotts did the so called "religious right" organize in an effort to stifle free speech?

    So, exactly what is Bill O'Reilly doing? Did you see what he did to JetBlue?
    Or is a boycott only something bad when the LIBERALS do it?
