Sears seems to be a good one.
As angry as we may be at some employers for unfair treatment, it is nice to hear a good story and important that we give that employer some support.
I just learned that Sears pays the difference in salaries and maintains benefits for its called up military reservist employees.
I checked to make sure it is true through Snopes: http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/sears.asp
If we have any money left to spend on Christmas this year, perhaps we should do a little shopping at Sears.

Our troops aren't "defending America" - far from it. We could have a lively discussion about what exactly they are doing overseas, but it's not about the advancement of liberty, or anything of the sort. So Sears loves the American military . . . more reason for me not to shop there.
Hyperpatriotism . . . is right wing.
Asshole!

Asshole!
Living under the protective wing of our military while belittling them at the same time is....well....being an unpatriotic, unamerican Asshole.

All parts of them are.
Like that famous late British socialist said, "people sleep peaceably in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
The primitives have no idea.

Posted on the same day when a thread pointed out stupid shit they do that causes them to lose elections. This one, in particular, really, really grinds my gears. If I could ever fix my stinking avatar, you would see that my pet project is the Wounded Warriors. Arrrrrrrrrrrgh

Oh, well. It puts a smile on my face when I see something like this from them, and another bookmark in my browser. It just makes it that much easier to sell people off of the Democract party.

40. I just have one thing to say
Edited on Sat Nov-05-11 07:05 PM by reformedrethug
you can just simply **** OFF!!!!
EVERY single Marine I served with served because they wanted to...PERIOD!!!
I have so many thoughts running through my head right now and if I said anything else I will prob get alerted on and banned and you are just not worth it.
eta. My oldest daughter is now PROUDLY serving in the United States Navy having made that choice all on her own with NO pressure from me at all. She actually had completed her Surgical Tech program and was certified and working at a local hospital when she went to boot. She is experiencing so many things that she would not have a chance to experience at home and I am EXTREMELY PROUD of her and DARE anybody to talk negative about her service around me.
