I can't stand Hillary, "you know"...I can't stand Al Gore's voice, I can't stand an actor thinking he IS president cause he plays one on TV, and I can't stand Babs'whining. Please can someone help me spread the word to boycott these Hollywood pinheads? So they've voiced their opinion. Well, I don't want it shoved down my throat and I certainly don't want to look at their phony, surgeon paid for faces! If someone could draft a letter to forward in emails to boycott these traitors; Clinton lovers; I will be the first to copy and mail! Let's show these pinheads we don't give a demo-rats a** what they think and hurt them in the pocketbook!

The free market is a collection of millions of individual decisions; a boycott is a collective action. They are not the same.

For all their bellyaching, they sure understand money, and they sure as hell ain't going to get mine.

That's fine and your prerogative, but that's an individual decision, as it should be. The matter I was addressing was the "value" of a boycott, which is an organized, centralized action.

Have you ever heard of onemillionmoms.com and onemilliondads.com? They've done much in helping to clean the filth off TV..they don't even have to boycott but deluge advertisers with emails voicing displeasure. It is very effective when a body of potential customers complain!

Advertisers, more than anyone else, know that it does no good whatsoever if you've offended your prospective customer to the point that they get mad. An angry prospect does not a customer make.

I've been boycotting this crowd for many years now (and yes I did have 2 give up 2 Baldwin films "Miami Blues" and "The Shadow"; I get physically ill hearing this man talk and his slimeball character in MB seems as manipulative and controlling as the genuine article).

I never was a Robin Williams fan (at least he went to entertain the troops). Tim Robbins is an annoying person (think a mellow and not as overweight Michael Moore). And who can deal with the heavy handed preaching in reruns of MASH?

Merry Christmas!
