Poll question: Wal-mart hater, good republican or bad republican?
Fair game.

It's not about the frigging labels, folks.

There are "good republicans" out there.

Hell, many of us agree on far more things than most of us would ever give credit for.

If we're to survive as a species, we need to realize who is playing who as chumps. And here's a hint: If you vote and don't sit in public office right now, you're the chump.

4. I'm not knocking you. I know people who HAVE to shop there.
Hell, the whole system of capitalism, as corporate america has allowed it to become these days, is evil. In the end, it makes little difference where one shops.

Hell, I had no idea when looking at a Kathy Lee Crosby clothing ad in 1982 where she proudly said "Made in America" did I realize what was going on. (Nixon had opened the gates to chinese exploitation, that Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Bush did NOTHING to halt and reverse the offshoring trend. Yes, Clinton is in there too. I recall the repukes were bashing him for not fixing it. I'll bash him too, but I'll also say what the repuke presidents did to fix it and that was nothing too.)

5. i know you weren't meaning anything by it.
idk, just seemed like a good time to bitch about it.

unfortunately, walmart is the only option in a LOT of towns. i'd gladly shop local, if there was anything local that i could afford. but i live in a college town. walmart is the only place i can afford anything.

stupid walmart.

3. The Republicans who run things never shopped in a WalMart in
their lives. The idiot Republicans who shop at WalMart don't understand how their prejudices are being manipulated by the Republicans who run things and can't afford to shop elsewhere.
