38. why does that bother me. my husband owns a business in a very red
community. i want his right to vote for kerry. i want my right to have stickers on car and signs in the yard. i couldnt put signs in the yard because people in this community often drive down our street and to see support of kerry could have been loss of business. i have been angry because i am not allowed to speak out, for fear of repercussion to husband. of late, i have been having faith in fellow man that i can speak out without husband losing business. that i have the right to speak and support who i chose

so this is bothering me boycotting business for this reason.

but it doesnt stop me for talking to any bush supporter, wherever i am, whatever business. just uncomfortable not doing business with a person because they are known republicans

i stopped using two businesses because they had fox news on. called one. still have to call the other and see if they leave tv on fox. to me that is the business rubbing it in over 50% of customers face, knowingly, unapologetically.
