These companies were sponsors of the NAN convention that took place April 1-4, 2009 in New York City. It is Sharptons main fundraising event of the year. Dr. Carl Horowitz, author of our Special Report on Sharpton, attended as observer.
In past years, I have had confrontations with the PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi and Colgate-Palmolive CEO Ian Cook at their annual meetings. Both defended their support of Sharpton by claiming they did not agree with everything he says. This is, of course, ridiculous. If a company is funding NAN, it is responsible for Sharptons statements and actions on behalf of NAN.
Sharpton wrote an October 12 letter on NAN letterhead opposing Rushs bid to buy the St. Louis Rams. With the announcement that the bid is apparently going forward without Rush, Sharpton is positively gloating:
If it is true that Mr. Limbaugh has been dropped by the group bidding to buy the Saint Louis Rams, it is a moral victory for all Americans especially the players that have been unfairly castigated by Rush Limbaugh. This decision will also uphold the unifying standards of major sports.
Sharpton and his corporate enablers will only be able to enforce racial double-standards as long as we let them. Contact these companies now. Please let us know what response you get and/or if you find better contact info.

I’m in. Why should I shell out money to have it go to Al Sharpton?
Until you can inflict as much pain on them as Sharpton can, they will continue paying Sharpton.
I wish Rush would sue the crap out of Sharpton.
So do I! If Rush could win a judgement against Sharpton it would make that turkey think twice before pulling a stunt like this again.
Disappointed in Ford. No more American cars. I’m done.
Thanks for posting this!
Comcast already got the boot from my home for various and sundry offenses.
Time to go cancel the Walmart Christmas Layaway.
And I guess we know why Obama had a Bud at that Beer Summit.
Johnson and Johnson makes KY Jelly, don’t they? That figures...

Sharpton Ping!
He just said “be patient”.
I’m not going to be too patient,
because if they can get away with this,
it does not bode well for any conservative anywhere.
Leftists historically ALWAYS punish their political opponents, using the power of the state if they have it.
Dear Lord! Who is left not to boycott these days? It’s truly depressing!
Pfizer shareholder message away.
I think he’s working towards that........
Sharpton Ping!
For later...
bump
I don’t doubt that! :)
I don’t think Sharpton paid the last man that sued him and won.
Sue them all! Ream them!
Macy’s is crap. I drive a Nissan. I do most of my grocery shopping at Aldi. I make few purchases at Wal-mart, and then only generics instead of Colgate-Palmolive and J&J. The only one of these sponsors I use is Comcast, they have the least expensive Internet. If someone knows a more inexpensive Internet please let me know.
“When you're down to Bud, you're out of beer.”
I must confess that, occasionally, I buy Bud 40 ouncers and use it to kill garden slugs. I pour it in a shallow dish, the slugs drink it and die.
That is quite a shakedown list he has going.
I would ask everyone to listen to sharpton’s radio show. I listened a few times when I was working near Atlanta.
Listen.
Very insightful.
Also prevents one from being just like most of Rush’s bashers who know what he says but never listens to him.
Al “Jew Them Down” Sharpton has no credibility. That the NFL and corporations listen to this known antisemite and fraud only shows that they HAVE chosen a side. Evil.
I have no problem boycotting these companies except Anheuser-Busch. I’m sorry I just can’t bring myself to boycotting them yet. Although, if I did, it would put a significant dent in their profit margin and they might get the hint.
Let’s rap with Al Sharpton!
COPYING AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE FOLLOWING LYRICS IS NOT ONLY PERMITTED, BUT ENCOURAGED.
Now you honkies listen, and listen real good
I’m gonna tell you how it works in my ‘hood.
We found us a girl, her name was Tawana
She made Wappingers Falls one great big pinata!
We whacked it around, and raised an uproar,
We ruined lives and reputations, and then even more.
Half a million dollars, Dutchess County it spent,
It paid dear for our circus, ere from it we went.
Tawana Brawley was raped, that we all swore,
But the Central Park jogger was only a whore.
That’s what we called her, yes it is true,
Even though a gang beat her black, bloody, and blue.
Then came Crown Heights, in 1991
A mob went wild, and boy it had fun!
The “diamond merchants” sure got a clue,
When a mob rampaged and screamed, “Kill the Jew!”
They found one, name of Yankel Rosenbaum
The brother that knifed him was no Uncle Tom.
They rioted and screamed, that was a fact
Like the Nazis did, on good old Kristallnacht.*
Four years later, we gave Whitey straight dope
Harlem’s a Black ‘hood, don’t you dare interlope.
To Freddy’s Fashion Mart, my National Action Network **
Marched round and round, to drive out the white jerk.
Called him “white interloper,” and “bloodsucking Jew,”
“Jew bastards!” and “cracker lovers!” we also threw.
We screamed epithets, camped out on his porch
Called him a cracker, said his business we’d torch.
Roland Smith was my fan, and I sure raised his ire.
At Freddy’s Fashion Mart, he set a big fire!
A Molotov cocktail, the flash of a match,
And your honky Jew store is a pile of ash!
Seven people died in those hot burning flames,
A bright blazing fire that added to my fame.
Then came the scandal of Duke Lacrosse
I went down to Durham to show ‘em who’s boss.
I supported Mike Nifong, he’s my kind of man
To find them white boys guilty, that was his plan.
Something went wrong, his case was dismissed
I’m sure it was all because the courts are ra-cist.
When black sisters like Crystal Gail Mangum accuse
White boys of rape, it’s all truth and straight news.
But when a white jogger gets raped, beaten, and more,
I will swear up and down that she is only a whore.
Now here is more from me that will bring real raves,
We was building empires when whites lived in caves!
Invented philosophy, astrology, and publicity promos,
Long before Socrates and them dirty Greek homos.
Louis Farrakhan is also my man, I bet you can dig it.
Says Judaism’s a gutter religion, but I swear he’s no bigot.
Now if you want to please me and your mama
Get off your white honky ass, and vote for Obama!
* Kristallnacht, “Night of the Broken Glass.”
** The same organization at which Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Edwards appeared
Of that list jaz, only Home Depot is relevant to the RQSR as we are in a period of upgrade, and repair.
We’ve spent thousands of dollars at Home Depot since just this past April 2009 for the materials we use building cabinets, painting rooms, electrical improvements, etc., and we have only just begun the projects around here.
There is a Lowes equal distance from the ranch, but at the other side of town.
I’m sending a message to Home Depot right now.
I was quite surprised at some of the companies that support him. We don’t use products from some of them (that I know of) but I’m going to contact every one to let them know of my displeasure.
Not to sue only emblodens these thugs!!!!
“...but Im going to contact every one to let them know of my displeasure.”
Good point. I was focused on those I am associated with, and have perhaps some leverage to make them at least think about it.
Absolutely...And the amount you’ve already spent with Home Depot should get their attention being you’ve got a lot more work to do.
I’m going to have an especially good letter for Ford, I’ve owned many over the years!

The Rush Limbaugh media lynch mob
