Go away, sir.





The frustration level is starting to show from the letters I keep getting from Son Of NoNeck, Little Timmt Wildmon, and the 'phobes over at the American Family ASSociation.


As you probably know, AFA has been targeting The Home Depot since the summer of '10 over it repeated, consistant, and blantant attempts to try to see homomsexuals, bisexuals, and transgenders as....perish the thought...actual human beings.


Since August of 2010, I have been bombarded with AFA e-mails AGAHST at the antics of the more flamboyant participants in Pride activities.


And all of their screeds end with a plea to sign thier petition to boycott Home Depot (more on that in a few paragraphs), and...of course...send money.


I'll leave out the pitch for money and the link to the boycott...and get to the meat of the lastest comminique from Generalissimo Wildmon:





Dear Donald,


Home Depot is showing it wants to advance same-sex
marriage in America. The company is planning to set up a booth at the October
8-9 Gay Pride Festival in Atlanta. The event includes a "Commitment Ceremony" in
which two gays get "married."

This picture was taken at the Atlanta gay
"marriage" ceremony last year. Home Depot paid for printing thousands of
brochures promoting it. Video of last year's ceremony sponsored by Home Depot
here.

Home Depot is also sponsoring the Atlanta pride parade and plans
to march alongside groups like Dykes on Bikes, Queer Femme Revolution and Human
Rights Campaign.

Over one-half million people have
signed the pledge to boycott Home Depot until it agrees to remain neutral in the
culture and political war over homosexual marriage.




Let me point out something. If a boycott is to be sucessful, you have to have a indication that people are no longer supporting the target of the boycott...right?

According to Reuters, The Home Depot same store earnings ROSE....ROSE 4.5%. And with a upbeat holiday forecast, the wily Jim Cramer has gone BOO-YA! on Home Depot stock.

In other words, Tim Wildmon, your boycott is a failure.

I remember several years ago when the anti-legalized-abortion forces were almost winning thier battle, using time-honored grass roots efforts in local areas, until the Randall Terry freakshow came to town, shoving dead feti in the faces of any he can fine. The anti-abortion bandwagon went downhill from there.

And just as Herr Terry became an embarassment to the "pro-life" movement, you, Mr. Wildmon, your neckless father, and the AFA have, with your silly boycotts and equally cartoonish freakshows, become an embarrasment to all Christianity.

For the sake of us all, Mr. Wildmon, please go away. You're not welcome here anymore.

Oh I Just love this





As you probably know, I have having my own private war with the Donald-and-Tim-Wildmon-run American Family ASSociation for some time. Among some of the actions they take are boycotts-at-virtual-gunpoint of companies and individuals they claim are not "neutral in the culture wars," i. e., believe that gays, Lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders are also human.








Their latest target is The Home Depot, who has been found guilty by the Twits from Tupelo, MS of such unChristian crimes as supposrting PFLAG, the Human Rights Coalition, and sponsoring GAY PRIDE PARADES! HORRORS!!!








So for the past year they have been holding a boycott of Home Depot operations.








Now Home Depot was doing their annual stockholders convention in Atlanta. AFA said that "many stockholders were upset" with Home Depot's stand on the Sodomites. So they came to the convention with one message: step away from the gays, or we'll buy our ladders and paint elsewhere.








In an e-mail I got from AFA's "news" operation One News Now, a Mr. Charles Butts (GOD, I can have some fun with THAT one!!!) reported the following:








The American Family Association's boycott of The Home Depot continues
after corporate executives heard from those opposed to the company's strong
support of the homosexual agenda.

It was a unique opportunity for the
Mississippi-based pro-family group to deliver its message regarding The Home
Depot's "corporate endorsement" of the homosexual agenda. AFA executive vice
president Buddy Smith traveled to Atlanta to attend the annual shareholders
meeting, where he addressed Home Depot chairman Frank Blake and other company
executives for a three-minute period.




Accompanying Smith was Randy Sharp, AFA's director of special
projects. He summarizes what took place.

"We presented to the
shareholders and to the chairman and the board of directors over 470,000
signature petitions asking them to remain neutral in the culture war,
specifically when it addresses gay marriage and homosexual activist groups,"
Sharp tells OneNewsNow.

The reception was cool, adds the AFA spokesman.
Blake thanked AFA for the petitions but again, as in the past, reiterated the
company's support for "diversity," which includes same-gender "marriage."

Sharp adds: "We're disappointed that The Home Depot continues to close
the door and not listen to the millions of customers who are offended that they
are engaging in the culture war and taking a position in favor of gay marriage."

As a result, the American Family Association plans to continue its
boycott and encourage others to sign the pledge to not do business with The Home
Depot until the company agrees to be neutral on social issues.

According
to the boycott website, the nationwide home improvement retailer sponsors and
participates in numerous "gay pride" events, parades, and festivals across the
U.S. where small children are exposed to "open displays of homosexual activism."
The boycott was launched in July 2010.






So how IS that little boycott of yours doing? Well, same store sales did slip in the first quarter of 2011, but only by a paltry .6% overall and .7% in the US. But before you start the party, note that the weather around the country has been pretty bad, causing people not to go to stores for anything (unless, of course, it was tornado related).




In fact you MAY have to remind your faithful flock that the boycott is against The Home Depot....not Lowe's, Home Depot's main competitor. Their in-store sales were down whopping 3.4%.




Meanwhile, back at the Depot, this did not effect profits for while Lowe's was down 6% for the first quarter of 2011, Home Depot net profits were UP by 12%. In other words, they've made MORE money since you called that lame boycott of yours, not less.




So to No-Neck, Jr., a hale and hearty neener-neener-neener. And as for The Home Depot, please expect more of the continued patronage from those of us who feel you are doing the right thing.




Just make it easy to get out the door. My GPS isn't working this week.

Wildmon Dumps On the Depot

Today's recommendation: SHOP AT HOME DEPOT!  SHOP TIL YOU DROP!

Yes friends, it is tme that we all get out washers, driers, hammers, ladders, nails, screws here.  It is our duty as AMERICANS to lose ourselves in the massive jungle that is THE HOME DEPOT. 

Ah yes, the orange apron is your friend.

And why I am promoting a company that many of you probably cannot stand.  Because and old friend hates HOME DEPOT too.

Yes, my sick and twisted freakazoids, DONALD "NO-NECK" WILDMON IS BOYCOTTING HOME DEPOT!

So here we go...

Uh.....the flags that were menetion, I could not figure out what the website is.  It would have been helpful.  I mean I don't want out kids going to bitwinksailors.com, and I trust HD doesn't either.  Or was it something like http://www.advocate.com/ and you just think that anything positive about non-hets was a sex site.
Dear Donald,
For several years, The Home Depot has given its financial and corporate support to open displays of homosexual activism on main streets in America's towns. And, it says it will continue to do so!


"At the end of the day here, we're not going to...forbid our associates to be involved in these pride festivals in any way." - Stephen Holmes, company spokesman. (Note: The associates participating in these parades were clearly doing so as representatives of the company.)
Rejecting several requests by AFA to remain neutral in the culture war, The Home Depot has chosen to sponsor and participate in numerous gay pride parades and festivals. Most grievous is The Home Depot's deliberately exposing small children to lascivious displays of sexual conduct by homosexuals and cross-dressers, which are a common occurrence at these events.
The goal of every homosexual organization supported by The Home Depot is to get homosexual marriage legalized. BoycottTheHomeDepot provides just a glimpse of how broad its support for the homosexual movement is. The Home Depot says it is committed to furthering the homosexual agenda.


"The bottom line is, it (remaining neutral) just runs counter to our inclusive culture...and that's where we stand." - Stephen Holmes, company spokesman.


See it for yourself. Photos at BoycottTheHomeDepot.com, taken during recent homosexual events sponsored by The Home Depot, show:

*Children being encouraged to visit gay sex websites. (!!!!)

*Employees using company property to push gay marriage. (!!!!!!!)

Oh, you mean those banners supporting DIVERSITY?? Hate to break it ya ol' bean, but gays do occasionally need to get wood, hammer, and nails.  Building bondage crosses yourself is much more economical.

*The Home Depot employees riding and marching in homosexual parades.

Orchard Supply probably did not have anyone marching in "homosexual" parades.  Their stores are almost empty all the time.  COINSIDINK??? I DON'T THINK SO!



TAKE ACTION(!!!!!!!!)

1. Sign the Boycott Pledge at BoycottTheHomeDepot.com.
2. Call your local store manager. Let him know that you will not be shopping in his store until the company stops supporting the homosexual agenda.
3. Print the paper petition and distribute it at Sunday School and church.
4. Extremely important! Post this alert to your facebook page (link above) and encourage others to join the boycott!
It is very important that you forward this alert to your friends and family members.

By the way, the letter was signed by Donny dear's spawn, Tim. Here he shows his appendage?
Read in to THAT if you will.

Seriously, the Wildmons and the AFA have made large corporations shake in their boots with their boasts that they can marshall millions of sheep to keep them from buying your services.  In an economy like this, it is very powerful.  They have laid low companies like Pepsico, NBC, and Ford. Someone needs to say IT STOPS HERE.

The AFA has already scared HD to hiding their corporate contact numbers on the Home Depot website, but wouldn't ya know it, our friends at WhackjobNetDaily......errr WorldNetDaily have supplied us with info:

Home Depot's corporate office at (770) 433-8211 or (800) 430-3376, fax: (770) 384-2356. You can also e-mail them at consumerffairs@homedepot.com. Since they are probably getting a LOT of negative feedback, I am sure they would welcome POSITIVE feedback about their committment to diversity.


Also, as I said, shop at your local Home Depot.  I know some of you hate big box corporate stores, but there is a bigger issue here: whether you let a well-organized group of religeous zealots continue to promote hatred, bigotry, and ignorance.


Or in terms of stopping these bastards, let them know: "WE can do it, YOU can help!"
