How the hell can the all-time record fund raiser be excluded from the forums ? This is war people. I will not do business with any advertisers that marginalize my candidate. We need to begin a running list of corporations to boycott and persuade others to boycott. Here are a few from Fox
Taco Bell
Burger King
New 5 Gum
Weight Watchers
Verizon Wireless
H+R Blockhead
Ashley furniture
Watsons Tel. 210-344-pool
Eyemart
Come on people lets keep a growing list of corporations that seek to decide for us.

OUTFOXED : Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism

Submitted by hemingway811 on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 21:12.

I just watched this outstanding video posted at Google. It is a mini documentary showing Faux New's blatant bias and orchestrated "news."

Set aside some time. It is 1 hour and 18 minutes long, but more than well worth it.

This video was posted Sept. 14, 2004, yet the sheeple are still blindly believing Faux News is fair and balance. Let us hope & pray they are so glued to their televisions they won't bother to get out to vote.

THANKS FOR MAKING IT EASY to send boycott emails...

Submitted by Devils.Advocate on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 20:30.

If everyone follows the links below to all the Fox news emails... I would never have taken the time to email them all (because I dont think emailing Fox frankly will make a whole lot of difference to a channel with an agenda) I did go ahead and email because you posted all the email links so easy to use...
I suggest others do the same...
*all* the links are set up nicely below in this thread...

Happy New Year (anyway) from Devils Advocate

petition to the FCC to address concerns that FOX has violated their broadcast license. A televised public hearing would be fun. And of course they certainly have violation besides the exclusion of political candidates from public discourse.

And boycott too.

Burger King / Taco Bell = Pepsi Co

Submitted by zamboni on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 18:17.

Pepsi the the parent company.

Boycotts do work and even if they didn't it is about integrity.

Those that give money to evil people in order not to be inconvenienced may want to do a little soul searching.

I suspect that some of the naysayers are trolls.

naysayers

Submitted by pajeff2 on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 18:21.

The naysayers are not "trolls'..They are rational people who think before they do something that could harm the campaign durring the early primaries..If we don't do well in these first primaries your boycotts won't mean squat and our campaign is over and some asswipe will be our next President..

Sorry.

Submitted by chipaugel on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 20:26.

I have a hard time seeing how this could be harmful to the campaign. Please let me know how this can hurt the campaign. Last time I checked, corporations do not get to vote.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ or freedom???

Short-sited

Submitted by gcopenhaver on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 20:10.

Are we supposed to stop boycotting the businesses that are destroying our country if we don't get the president that will help save our country? Are we supposed to diminish our integrity by supporting these businesses because a few people are short-sited and are worried that there may be a negative effect against our campaign? The message is much bigger than Ron Paul getting elected president. We are the People, and this is Our country, and We will not sit back and continue supporting the people that are destroying Our country. To think that to keep doing something counterproductive, such as financially helping those people who destroy Our country and take away our Freedom, will help us in any way, short or long term, is insane! STOP giving them YOUR money, YOUR Freedom, and OUR country! And continue to seek out those who are on Our side, and trade with them. Let's keep researching to find those who are against Us, and each of Us personally abolish all trade with them! Why trade with someone that cheats you out of your Freedom?

A new movement has begun. A movement of Freedom. Let us continue this movement until the day we die, and teach our children to continue this movement just the same. Let us restore our government to that of defending us from injustice, and never again allow it to expand into causing injustice.

BOYCOTT the Enemy!

Vote for Freedom! Trade for Freedom!

You trade money for your

Submitted by gcopenhaver on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 22:34.

You trade money for your burger. That money eventually moves upstream in BK to their marketing department. They purchase advertising time from Fox. Fox pays people to promote their agenda, and tries to keep candidates out of their forums and debates that don't support their agenda, and then claims to be Fair and balanced. Fox is owned by News Corp, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). CFR has the North American Union (NAU) agenda, as part of their ultimate goal of a World Government.

I don't know much about who owns Burger King or if they have any agenda against our freedom, but if we don't want to support the people that are our enemies, then we should do our best to not support those that support our enemies. If any business wants to trade with us, then they'd do well to not support our enemies. If they stop trading with the enemy, then lets trade with them, cuz they now are on our side.

No one that is serious about being free would continue to help those that are trying to take our freedom from us. We should cut them off and not continue to enable them to further take away our freedom.

Let us start our own businesses that are founded on the principles of liberty, so we can avoid those businesses that are against the principles of freedom. Let us who stand firm in the principles of freedom run for political offices to defend us from injustice.

We the People are going to be truly Free once again. We have already won. The movement will not stop until we are Free.

We're doing the last of our coding on the site...got rid of the blog..plenty of good blogs around and we're looking for some good .php voting software right now. We should have it completed by tonight.

Take a look and let us know what you think.

Any comments at all about the site, how it should function, and the nominees for the different lists there are welcome.

Direct TV is owned

Submitted by Crunchy on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 17:37.

by the Murdoch idiot. We need to focus like a laser beam in just one company and see it crumble to the ground. We need a website for this.

1. Cancel Direct TV on a specific date.
2. Start rumors that Direct TV will have the biggest cancellation ever in history on a specific day.
3. Spread the rumors around financial blogs and websites (enjoy seeing the stock fall).
4. Whenever you are with a Direct TV subscriber, suggest to change to cable, since the Direct TV signal is crappy and cuts-off regularly.

This will be the same pattern we can use with the rest of the traitor companies.

Put this idea into a new forum.

Submitted by chipaugel on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 21:29.

I like it.

For all the posts you have here Jeff, equating to time spent here, I find it curious that you consider yourself only a potential voter for RP.

Just an observation.

boycott of sponsors not realistic

Submitted by NutriaKing on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 17:34.

I'm angry as hell and want to do something effective, but I don't think threatening boycotts of all these advertisers is the answer. Sorry, but I'm not going to change my cell phone service from Verizon to another company, or move financial accounts, just because they advertise on Fox. I just don't see this particular effort amounting to anything with impact. However, TELEPHONING all of these companies and expressing outrage over Fox's treatment of Dr. Paul and therefore your outrage over their advertising on Fox, would be very effective. Threats to boycott are not necessary, in my opinion. Keep their phones off the hooks with phone calls (email is easily filtered, deleted, or attributed to spambots). We need some more ideas, too, I think. Remember that in whatever we do, though, we represent Ron Paul.

Boycott

Submitted by pajeff2 on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 17:39.

If we boycott everyone we most certainly cannot expect their employees and share holders to vote for Dr.Paul..It's time for rational people like you to help point out the futility of all this

I call B.S.

Submitted by none on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 17:48.

So what you're suggesting is that we make the companies that would silence us prosperous so their employees will vote for Ron Paul? What kind of logic is that?

Well, I'm glad to be the one to break this to you. You couldn't be more WRONG. It's not futile. People with attitudes like yours make our efforts more dificult. Why don't you commit to the work it's going to take, and become part of the soultion instead? Unless of course you really don't believe in liberty, choice, and freedom.

Submitted by pajeff2 on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 17:34.

What do you mean, Begin..I thought we were already boycotting people from the Glenn Beck episode...I dumped Comcast because of Beck and went to Direct-TV..Now you want me to dump them...If boycotting makes you feel good, go for it...You're not going to hurt anyone...What happens if we lose Iowa, are you going to boycott Farmers....

That just doesn't make sense.

Submitted by chipaugel on Tue, 01/01/2008 - 20:32.

Last time that I checked, farmer's are not corporations. Who are you to say that a huge boycott will not hurt anyone? Anyone with a product to sell, cannot survive without someone to purchase their product.
