Just like their successful efforts to boycott and shutdown Chic-Fil-A, and WholeFoods.  Assholes.  Every last one of them. 

If they weren't, we wouldn't be interested.

BTW. Welcome.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

The amusement value of the DUmmorrhoids lies in the fact that they are not just assholes, but ineffectual stupid assholes who are too arrogant and clueless to understand that the well-deserved bitchslaps life keeps giving them are entirely due to their own flaws.

How petty do you have to be to go around looking for reasons to be offended?
When I'm out in public I don't give a rats ass what is on a tee vee screen.

So you harass some poor person who is just trying to do their job over what is on the tee vee.

So far 176 moonbats have signed up.

Fox news is now anti American propaganda?  :rotf:

Zero bongs.

If anyone is so dimwitted to be brainwashed by a news channel they shouldn't be out in public in the first place.

I have never heard a conservative whine and cry that MSNBC is playing on a tee vee at wally world.

20. I request that it be changed
   
If they won't, I leave.

My dentist has TV for each patient. It was tuned to Fox. He asked if I would like the channel changed. I replied "Yes - I am a Democrat and have a severe allergic reaction to Fox." He laughed and the hygienist gave a little cheer. I had it changed to MSNBC.

My dentist has the same set up.  If it's on Fox I say fine, if it's on CNN, MSNBC, or any other channel ... I say fine.  To be honest, I have other much more pressing issues to deal with when I'm there.

I thought they had all bought universal remotes so they could change the channel when they wanted? Or are they so unmotivated they cannot muster up the energy to do even that?

It isn't the motivation so much as it is the wherewithal.  Welfare money only buys so much pot and Cheetos.

I know why they have an issue with Chic-Fil-A, it being a decent company and all but I thought Whole Foods was like Mecca to the DUmmies with all the ugly 'organic' produce and the like. Some cashier say something nice about Bush or something?

I can't help but wonder why so many places (according to the Dummies) have Fox on their TV's. Is there some incentive, a simple cable package for stores or is it really just the owners putting it on because they can?

I know when I go to the hospital or some place with a TV I'm almost always greeted with The Weather Network, thanks to people would complain about anything else like the CBC or CTV news channels.

Then again according to the Dummies the weather channel is likely biased too. (I'm not saying I'm fond of Fox but...)

Because it's not just Fox. They want to censor everything they disagree with. I prefer Robin Meade and Co. on CNN HLN in the morning, but I'm not going to have a shit fit because they have it turned to something else. Those idiots just like bitching. They all live miserable f'n lives. Ever notice how f'n angry they seem? You've been here quite some time, do we act like that?

...and that's a good point. DUmmies LOVED Whole Foods. ...until they did something they disagreed with. They're all little Fascists in their cold-blooded hearts. You MUST walk lockstep with those goons.

Screw DU.

...oh, and DUmmies? Chick-Fil-A isn't going anywhere. Get over it, you loons.

8. I've been doing that for years. If they won't change the channel, I won't go back - and say so.

And not one of their 6,000 members disagreed with the hatred of WF. The Borg took over.

I'd deliberately keep the TV to Fox news if I had a business with a TV set.  This would keep the DUmmies out.  Would you want Horse with No Brain coming in trying to return something?  We've all read those stories and felt awful for the poor manager.

My parents run a small business and quite often have Rush Limbaugh's show playing during the day.  I don't think they've ever gotten a complaint.
