from a FreeRepublic thread about the Center for American Progress successful effort to get UPS to drop Bill-O:


Then FEDEX it is.

Communism and free speech are not compatible. That’s why the Commies need to shut Americans up.

FedEX and free speech for me from now on ...

The NAZIs had an easier time at it, since there was only radio and newspapers, but they did shut them down ... The people only got the propaganda reports. You don’t think the NAZIs told the people about the gas chambers do you?

Either we stand up or we get taken down separately.

One of my companies ships about 75 packages a day. Not a lot but they will no longer be going UPS. In addition we will be printing labels to go on them that says:
"UPS a Soros company."

Well you had to know this was coming. UPS got the contract to provide the uniforms for Obama’s forced volunteerism. UPS has the market cornered on brown shirts!

I buy a lot of stuff from Joe's New Balance Outlet and they use UPS. I'll let them know that I won't be purchasing from them any more unless they use a different delivery service. I'm happy to pay a bit more to use Fedex.

I used to use UPS. Fed-Ex it is now. Why companies allow politics to get between them and their customers will always puzzle me. I don’t want to be buying liberalism when I buy my soup, my SUV, my cheese, or my fastfood. Sell me the goods and keep your company neutral. I don’t hold companies responsible for the free donations of their CEOs or employees but I do hold them responsible when they go out of the way to support activism as a corporation. It wins them nothing.

BOR gave up his worthless radio show.
Targeting advertisers works both ways. I'm happy UPS doesn't support him. The reason not is a definite issue.

Perhaps UPS should advertise on Rush, Glen Beck, Laura Ingraham, Midnight (trucking) Radio Network, Morning in Amnerica, etc.

3. Much big talk
And I'm going to go way out on a limb here, and bet that not a one of them actually has any say in how anything is shipped at their alleged jobs. As for the "free speech" issue, I don't see that Mr. O'Reilly is being stopped from saying whatever stupid thing rattles out of his empty little skull. He just won't be getting advertising dollars from UPS to do so anymore.

Nitwits.

19. Fedex is not Union
In fact, Fedex has been threatening to drop contracts for jets from Boeing if Congress passes a bill to make union organizing easier. Read this last weeks news.

their pathetic little boycott amounts to absolutely nothing to UPS.

And I can hear it now from someone..."Ups? What is Ups and why is it a Soros company? What's a Soros company?"

13. They're really good at dishing it out, but taking it is another subject....
..and it's the same tired crap every time.It's still Bill Clinton's fault. It's the only mantra they have left to cling to...

His balanced budget...an accounting trick

His economic performance ... luck

8 years of relative peace .. you get a lecture about Blackhawk Down


They claim to be all about accountability, but the absence of WMDs, "Mission Accomplished", Katrina, the huge deficits, the economic collapse, the bank bailout.... It's somehow never their fault despite 8 years of Bush, 75% of which they controlled the SCOTUS and both houses of Congress (compared with CLinton, who had a hostile Congress for 75% of his term).

where the owner doesn't care if you start threads about and fights with other boards. I always find it surprising.

Only visited freerepublic to find out what a freeper is, since it is used as an insult on this board and I'd never heard of it before.

15. What a load!
I'd bet none of them have any authority whatsoever over any shipping decisions - and that's assuming they even have jobs.

Deciding to use a significantly more expensive service for secondhand political reasons will put you out of business pretty quickly. Anyone who really could make the decisions they fantasize making would have the sense not to unless it was for a much more serious issue.

That's right he does, and we have a right to ours, and UPS has a right to theirs, and you have a right to yours. We got to boycott, you get to boycott, UPS gets new business from the liberals and Fed-Ex gets new business from you guys. WOW EVERYONE IS HAPPY! AIN'T AMERICA GREAT! Everything is working exactly the way it should. You guys really need to stop freaking out about all this socialism bullshit, we're not socialists, we're fucking Robin Hood. Taking from the rich and giving to the poor. ;)
