BuyBlue.org
I was searching through some blogs to see what other people thought about the world. There's some good stuff in the blog-o-sphere and I have learned a lot since I ventured into this at the end of October. I look at other blogs like the news. I sit down and unwind and look at 15 to 20 of them a day and occasionally I come across something great or I come across something like this: BuyBlue.org.
Ok... What hell is this? Some people it looks got together and they are sooooo upset with the leadership of the executive branch of the United States of America because they were re-elected fair and square. I may be wrong, but it looks to me as if they blame the fact that Bush won because of big business? They also don't like Walmart a whole lot. Me neither, I prefer Target for discount shopping. But I am not politically motivated to not shop from some store. And well, after looking at the list of businesses, I shouldn't be shopping at Target either or Home Depot, or Safeway or Raley's or Shell Oil or any other place that is convenient, competitive or deserving of my business because they are "red" which of course is the color of evil or blood or Lindsay Lohan. I question the intent of the "liberals" behind this organization, which is non-profit by the way. (If you get that last sentence, type "I am against Socialism" in my comment section)
I decided to think about this a bit. If you agree with what's going on here, I have a few problems for you that I need help with. First, you can go to Costco because it's a blue company but can you buy anything there? Costco is in the business of selling items made by other companies unless its Kirkland, their brand. So if you are making a beer run for that weekend protest at the Governor's mansion, you can't buy Coors. Not that I would either but Coors is a red company, thus eliminating the choice of Molson beer, you know, the Canadian Beer company that owns Coors which Canadians probably drink a lot of. (Note: I am not even commenting on Canadian politics) Also, for that protest, don't pick up Coca-Cola or any of their products. And dare not pick up the cell phone and call your friends to see what other blue products that are in limited supply at Costco because that phone runs through Verizon, Sprint or AT&T one way or another to get to your friends. And before you load up the Prius to head to that protest, don't buy gas because even though you may stop at a station that may be independent or unbranded but the gas isn't. And one way or another, it comes through Shell or Exxon Mobil, which coincidentally are Red companies.
So what is Buy Blue really about? It's another Socialist mask of the issues put on by some "liberals" to stir the proverbial pot of left wing politics in order to put forth another baby killing or small business debilitating issue, like employer paid health care or unionizing. Way to go "liberals" who started BuyBlue.org. Way to stop the "madness".
Buy Blue makes as much sense as a Buy Red organization which does not exist but you can buy it from Dotster for $14.95 if you want. Of course, that could be a smart business decision that a "liberal" could not go for. (Please note: If you vote liberal and I put "liberal" in quotes I am not talking about you. If you are offended by "liberal" being in quotes, well then... I am known to be a bit brash!)
Let the comments begin, this should be good!
