Progressive Review calls a boycott of WHOLE FOODS are you going to start buying there for the 1st time like me?
Having an honest opposing viewpoint is not unAmerican and is not a reason to boycott an American company. It is however a reason to boycott an ONLINE Political bag of unAmerican activity like the Progressive Review…just don’t go there!
I have never shopped at WHOLE FOODS, yet I’m going start to support the right to his Freedom of Speech displayed by the CEO.
Progressive Review is unAmerican in their activities designed to intimidate and stifle free expression of any discenting views regarding the socialization of American Medicine and the overhaul of the American Health Insurance Industry.
The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out
of other people’s money.”

The Whole Foods Alternative to ObamaCare
Whole Foods CEO’s Health Care Views Provoke Online Progressive Review to Call for a Boycott
Calls to boycott Whole Foods Market are growing louder and more sophisticated following a Wall Street Journal opinion article by the company’s chief executive, John Mackey, in which he criticized President Obama’s health care plan and offered his own alternative.
Mackey’s article first prompted individuals to threaten taking their business elsewhere. But now the Progressive Review, an online alternative publication, is calling for a formal boycott, and campaigns are popping up all over, including on Facebook, a popular online social networking site.
Protesters are hoping a boycott will cut into the success of Whole Foods, the 10th largest food and drug store in the U.S., which reported sales of $1.8 billion for the last quarter, a 2 percent increase from the previous quarter.
As of Saturday, the Whole Foods Internet forum had more than 4,000 postings. One commenter thanked Mackey for revealing his political views.

Good for you, that’s a well thought out response.
It amazes me when Obama is likened to Abraham Lincoln, I find the premise ludicrous.
These were Abe’s words:
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.
…..Abraham Lincoln
That doesn’t much sound like what is coming out of Washington.
