Liberal groups push to exploit Target backlash

[scipio337]

Remember when Bart Stupak didn’t vote the way the right-wing wanted him to? The conservatives made it clear in all their posts that they didn’t like it at all that he disagreed with them, and made it known. Pathetic of them to do so, wasn’t it?

Sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander.

The irony here is that a tax exempt PAC (who donates exclusively to those with a (D) after their name) is the one crying foul.

I’d say that’s a false analogy.

This is evidence of the stunning opportunism of moveon and the gay movement, not a reflection of Target’s moral stance. Target is getting what it deserves in catering to these groups in the first place.

What? You mean the gay movement would bite the very hand that feeds it? No way.

I have mixed feelings on Stupack.

Yeah. Same here. I was cheering for him, and really glad to see a Democrat stick by his guns like that. And then he caved and I just wanted to facepalm.

It’s like the good men in the Democratic party have all been systematically neutered. Whatever happened to the Dem guys that I grew up with? That reminded me of why I left the party.

I don’t much care for Target anyway. They fired a Native American buddy of mine for wearing his medicine pouch. I’m a bellringer for Salvaion Army at Christmas time and they won’t allow them. Target also refuses to accept Food Stamps and WIC because they think of themselves as upscale. While I don’t believe in Gay Marriage I don’t believe in Target either.

No big box store is without scandal. But I sympathize with the discrimination your friend faced. I have a relative that wasn’t treated well as an employee of theirs.
