but for awhile, I would seek out and read Liz's nonsense.

Holy cow...I can never understand what compels business owners to tie their political bullshit to company marketing materials. Seems to me like a good way to lose a large portion of your potential customer base.

I got in an email war with Angie's List once too, when I found at that they advertised on Rush Limbaugh's show. Several emails back and forth, with the company representative trying to justify why they advertise ad nauseum on his show.

I remember that email war got very heated, because they wouldn't just shut the hell up. They kept responding to me, telling me I was wrong.
