Unfortunately, Target apologized for this. I thought companies are supposed to hedge their business by giving donations to both parties? If they don't dare to give political donation to anyone pro-life, or proponent of certain issues, would't they lose one side by default?

So when will the companies who donate to liberals apologize?

Target is part of the Dayton-Hudson corporation. They already donated a dweeb named Mark Dayton to the liberal/homosexual side. They have yet to apologize for said donation.

Target made the decision to donate as a means of supporting a candidate who it felt would best better its business environment in the next four years in order to increase profits, and benefit its shareholders. Target had to have known that the overall benefits of supporting Emmer might be offset with some loss of business by customers who were opposed to it. But there should have been no reason to apologize for this.

Meanwhile, unions get to endorse candidates without blame, and funnel millions of dollars to the Dems (and get endless bailouts in return), and this is never questioned. And Hollywood Libs donate millions without any fear of people not going to see their films anymore. Maybe it’s time that that changes...

Gays have been targeting Target for over ten years. Awhile back, the gay lobby succeeded in getting Target to disallow the Salvation Army from putting a Santa outside its stores in the Christmas season.

Isn’t Target the retailer that wouldn’t allow the Salvation Army to set up the red kettle collections in front of their stores a couple Christmases ago?

I don’t live in Venezuela or Iraq, but I suspect this is how the Dear Leaders in both places got 98% of the vote.

Fear and threats. Next step is massive protests in front of Target stores.

This technique was used against savings and loan companies as ACORN was forcing them to commit to bad mortgages, with help from Fannie Mae, Frank, and Community Reinvestment Act.

How dare a private company support anyone who opposes the reasonable, logical candidates, the ONLY candidates who are truly qualified and for the little guys.
