My toilet paper makes me sad (Georgia-Pacific, Koch brothers)
5-11-2011 | me

Posted on 05/11/2011 2:51:26 PM PDT by Mountain Bike Vomit Carnage

Today I was in Costco. As I entered the papergoods area a demonstration woman approached me about a sale on Northern triple ply quilted bathroom tissue.

It's my brand and I strongly support a soft 3 ply, but that's not my point.

The demonstration woman went on to show me on the packaging that Georgia Pacific donates money to the Susan G Komen foundation.

I stopped in my tracks and said " I wish you hadn't told me that. The Susan G Komen Foundation funds Planned Parenthood and Planned Parenthood ( or Planned Barrenhood) is the largest provider of abortions in the United States. I can no longer use my favorite brand of tissue or purchase anything else from Georgia Pacific because I will not allow my money to fund abortion."

She looked at me in disbelief.

Normally I am not outspoken, but I get such a punch in my gut when I am confronted by backdoor funding of something as hideous as a the murder of an inconvenient child that my mouth tends to run away from my brain.

Maybe I gave her something to think about or more likely she thinks that I am a nutcase.

I just wanted you to be informed so you can make the decision on your own if you want to support Planned Parenthood abortions by purchasing Georgia Pacific product.

If a TP demonstration woman approaches me and bends over to show me how well her brand works I’m not taking at peek between her legs to see the smile (or frown) on her face! LOL!

Thanks for the suggestion!

Those pages are kind of crinkly, like the old onionskin typewriter paper.

Some bacon grease would be perfect.

Also would keep the tubes lubed.

Some one should tell Sheryl Crow so she can use more than one sheet at a time. She’d be benefitting both of her whack job positions.

A farmer friend tells us that large burdock leaves work in an emergency. Of course, they are only available in large enough sizes a few months a year.

On a more serious level, there are acceptable brands at Aldi’s that run about .38/2-ply double roll.

Wash with water very well and use wash cloths to dry off with. Simple.

No; it did EXACTLY what it was supposed to do: speak out against EVIL!

I don’t understand why any corporation would contribute to anything that even approaches controversial.

Duh; it's a CORPORATION!

NO one has ever accused them of having any BRAINS!
