Some advice to the folks at Marylou’s coffee chain, now under investigation by the EEOC, on how to fight back:
Start laughing.
Back during the Clinton years the EEOC went after Hooters for its alleged hiring bias (we all remember how hard Bill Clinton was on women... uh, let me re-phrase that). Hooters refused to hire men to wear the infamous “orange short-shorts and white tank-top” ensemble. The EEOC spent four years pressuring them to hire male waiters, which would have ruined the Hooters concept.
Hooters tried reasoning and logic. As one would expect when dealing with bureaucrats, they failed miserably. So Hooters turned to anther weapon: mockery.
They put up billboards showing what a hairy, beer-bellied guy would actually look like in Hooters garb. They took out newspaper ads showing a bearded guy in a blonde wig and Hooters T-shirt saying “Come on, Washington. Get a grip.”
It worked. The EEOC stayed just as stupid — still insisting that Hooters was doing something wrong — but it became clear that if they kept pushing the stupidity, Congress might step up and take away some of their power. So the EEOC “quietly ended its investigation,” according to the Los Angeles Times.
Today, dimwit EEOC attorneys in yet another Democratic administration are at it again — this time in Massachusetts. As the Herald reported yesterday, the EEOC “has been quietly probing Marylou’s’ hiring practices for nearly a year . . . grilling the 29-store chain’s pink-clad clerks about their co-workers’ gender, age, race and body type, according to the company.”
Let’s get something on the record. Yes, Marylou’s “discriminates.” Every employer “discriminates.” If they didn’t, I’d be working as a Chippendales dancer.
If you own a business, you...

I’ve seen the people Harvard hires. There’s no case to made there, plenty of stupid people on staff. You can’t even make a case they won’t allow stupid people to attend.
MARYLOU'S COFFEE SUPPORTED OUR BOYS ON THE FRONTLINES IN IRAQ!!
Boy if this could not be a better Conservative Red Meat issue over Memorial Day weekend to make those idiots in Washington seem like the most foolish, petty (and JEALOUS) jackasses in front of the vast majority of Americans!!!
They've found their niche at NOW, NARAL, the Democrat caucus in the House & Senate.
OMG! Warn somebody when you post pics like that! LOL
Well then, wouldn’t it be fun to have a government agency affirm that Harvard hires stupid professors?
Correction: A long time ago Harvard used to discriminate against stupid people. Now they're into diversity instead of intelligence or competence. Remember O'Bozo allegedly graduated from Harvard--although we haven't seen the actual records...
Definitely Masters of Arts majors in “Women’s Victimhood Studies”. To a person.

Nahh.... While I can make the choice ( before they take it away from me), I'll go to Marylou's....

HELP US JOHN KERRY, WE ARE STUCK IN IRAQ DRINKING MARYLOU’S
Setting up business in New England is just asking for trouble...a region inhabited by PC power-mad control freaks...unless you’re a sodomite...THEN they will ‘bend over backwards’ to assist you.
Any way, a good topic for Rush Limbaugh’s “Open Line Friday”. Which Freeper gets the privilege? I say, burn up the talk show lines on this today. It is a no-win for the Obama Czars. They can be humiliated over this.
Imagine that—a bisexual pervert married to a wookie transvestite occupying the White house goes after attractive women.
Romney would redeem himself to conservatives if he filled the EEOC commissioner positions with people like Thomas Sowell and Ann Coulter.
The top four are all MEN!
That is discriminatory right there!
BTW—greetings, AIT. Good to see you.
Does this coffee shop have a monopoly on jobs in the marketplace?
Is the government really just discriminating against one body type over another particularly given that that body type is more difficult to maintain?
I think that it’s Rush’s rule 15, feminism was invented to give power to ugly women.
And guess what? NO ONE has filed a complaint.
The EEOC is doing an extended air guitar solo.
Still, the talk radio discussion here in MAi s distressing. Even conservatives have bought into this BS. Freedom of association, whazat?
Idea: FOIA any Minutes of Meetings by EEOC in discussing this “discrimination” case and their plotting of how to go after them. Reading those docs alone, and keeping the wonderful smiles of those lovely four Reichscommizioners in mind, would be a riot in and of itself! Ha!
I dont know... I might hit #2
