Madeline Crabb Takes On Wal-Mart
One Day Late, But Just as Irate

crabb2.jpg
As it's almost Thanksgiving, we headed over to Renew America to see what our favorite American hater, Madeline Crabb, has to say for herself. Sure, we think she's a totally insane twat, but we're thankful she exists - not only do we love to poke fun at her nonsensical arguments, but she stands as a beautiful example of free speech, another thing for which we give thanks.

Anyway, this week Mad Crabb's taken on Wal-Mart. The original piece posted yesterday, before the American Family Association lifted its ban on the discount retailer. Not surprisingly, Crabb used her column inches to deride the store for its alleged - and somewhat anachronistic - homo-love. She even gave it a poetic title, "Say No To Wal-Mart". Pure journalistic genius.

Here's a little taste:

The "Gay," Lesbian, Bi-sexual, and Transgender (GLBT) activists threaten boycotts and other repercussions if corporations don't cater to their special wants. This is why so many corporations have now succumbed to the pressure and offer same-sex domestic partnership benefits. Oh, and let's not forget the diversity training they demand for all those pesky "homophobes" and Christians.

Let's ask ourselves what is more important: saving a few dollars, or honoring God by using his money to support more worthy companies....When Wal-Mart was questioned about what they would do if Christians withheld their business in protest, Wal-Mart officials said they would just lower their prices more to keep Christians coming. They think we value our wallets more than we do biblical principles...Biblical and family values are more important than money, aren't they?


They sure are, Crabbie. Considering Wal-Mart's about-face, however, it seems that you won't be forced to choose between your love of a misread Bible, shitty products and good "family" values. Proof perfect that there is a God, right?
