Time for Whoopi Goldberg- boycott Slimfast Product Commercials
7/10/04 | dvan

Posted on 07/10/2004 9:08:50 AM PDT by dvan

A great suggestion was made to boycott Whoopi Goldberg for her hate filled, nasty, remarks about our President. Her actions are intolerable at a time when this nation should be rallying together to support or troops. It gives comfort to the enemy who seek to destroy our nation and our culture.

It demoralizes our fighting men and women and the nation of Iraq which is taking small steps to a democratic form of government.

Hit her in her pocketbook by hitting any company which supports her vitolic garbage. Right now she is the TV spokesperson for Slimfast products. A threat and boycott against this company should due the trick, I think they could pick any number of more attractive, less controversial spokespersons to represent their products.

It is time to let them know. It worked for O.J. and Kobe Bryant. It is time for Whoopi to learn a lesson. Whoopie! Whoopi has got to go!!!

I have been boycotting her ever since Rush said she had bragged about having something like 9 abortions.

They need more than a boycott. They need to get phone calls and snail mail letters as well. I'll call them on Monday.

Send Slim-Fast COMPLAINTS here...

I wrote to them already. I just read the email a friend of mine sent--she added something I wish I'd thought to include:

"I no longer have an appetite for SlimFast. Every time I look at something with the SlimFast logo on it, I think of what Whoopi Goldberg said and I feel nauseous."

omething along these lines might be good to include in your letter of protest. Food companies just hate it when people lose their appetite for one of their products!
