Confused or just plain stupid?
Looks like you can't trust anyone. Vote SANTORUM to try to put this mess in order.
This is good!! Lets us know where to take our business!!
Guess I won't be eating Arby's anymore!! Sure am glad Olive Garden didn't donate to Dems. WOW thats a longgggggg list. Everytime I go to a store or eating establishment I will have to check the list.
Someone told me that the meat at Arbys comes out of a tube...not sure if this is true. Anyway, the two Arbys we had here locally recently went under so no more Arbys for me.
I the consumer Thank You, now I really know who I'll spend money with, quess what it wasn't the ones backing the Democrats, although if the Repulicans don't start acting within the conservative principles and start remembering who their boss is, I won't spend money with those backing them either! Quess I'll be saving a lot of money!!!!
Man!! Sonic has THE BEST unsweetened peach tea
Arby's really saddens me...I LOVE LOVE their beef and chedder and their Jamoca shake AND their cherry pie...ARGH!!!
Holy Smokes!
Great Post.........You can rest assured that my dollars will be going to those that exude the common sense of conservatism.
In your list.. you have some companies that donated to Dems & some that donated to Republicans....
The title doesn't make that distinction....
