Poor Frank Vandersloot cries about being victimized for giving $1 million to a RW Super PAC...
Businessman Frank Vandersloot, the CEO of Melaleuca, has been targeted by the Obama campaign after donating money to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign. "Three weeks ago, an Obama campaign website, 'Keeping GOP Honest,' took the extraordinary step of publicly naming and assailing eight private citizens backing Mr. Romney," Kim Strassel of the Wall Street Journal reported. "Titled 'Behind the curtain: a brief history of Romney's donors,' the post accused the eight of being 'wealthy individuals with less-than-reputable records.' Mr. VanderSloot was one of the eight, smeared particularly as being 'litigious, combative and a bitter foe of the gay rights movement.'"
The attacks are working. Vandersloot revealed in an interview on Fox News that his business practice is being hurt by the attacks from the Obama team.
"Those people that I know well weren't affected by this ," said Vandersloot. "But for people who didn't know me, who are members of our business or customers, and they were reading this, then we got a barrage of phone calls of people cancelling their customer memberships with us."
"Really?," the Fox News host asked. "How many did that?"
"A couple hundred that we can track," Vandersloot replied.
Again, the host asked, "Really? Do you have any grounds to sue?"
"I suppose we do," Vandersloot said. The businessman says he's been accused of being anti-gay, an accusation he says that couldn't be further from the truth.

2. I LIKE Obama's style! Fight fire with fire!
Out these prejudiced a**holes, one after the other. We need to purge that cancer from our government. Let them go get their white hoods and sheets and dance around a bonfire instead of allowing their cancer into our government to dictate how the rest of us should live.
:whatever:

3. Oh Boo Hoo
Cry me a river, rich boy.
The best part of this, is that he plans on donating even more, so 0bama can take his thuggish intimidation tactics and shove them up his ass.
-
Unlike Bush, 0bama is a true fascist.
-
I bet if the DUmmies had the opportunity they would hold Mr. Vandersloot down and cut his hair with a deadly weapon.
-
Republicans should do the same. Find out the big donors, and the businesses they run, and act accordingly.
-
Go ahead and act like even bigger assholes Democrats. Its only going to drive more independents to us. Paybacks are a bitch.
-
I'm certainly happy that the O'Bumbles campaign only accepts donations from the little people, and never from the wealthy. *coff-coff*
Their griping about the donation is fine. Why then, do they have to lie about his reasons and politics? Stupid move, DUmbasses.
His short term loss will be negated by a long term gain.

This is Chicago bare knuckle brawling politics on display. So far the overt hardball politics Chicago style have only been successful there. Hopefully it won't spread very easily elsewhere if at all.

I wasn't sure what Mr. V did for his mone, so I checked.
Maybe the DUmpmonkeys should look into http://www.melaleuca.com/ then think about what they're pant-hooting about.

I have a friend that's into Melaleuca. It's a profit-sharing mail-order company. You sign up other people as members and earn a percentage from every purchase they make.
Sounds kinda sketchy. I didn't care for it.

I think I have heard about that company quite awhile back, but nothing since. I guess I just thought they went out of business, or merged or some such other fading into obscurity business wise.

Sounds like Amway. Not my cup of tea either.
