Article about political contributions

I found this article interesting. We frequently forget that the business we support are supporting many organizations themselves. Where we buy our products does make a difference! This article is about supporting political parties, but of course business also support many other causes as well.

I am glad to see that Target supports the Republicans. Last Christmas, we were all horrified to see their strong refusal to mention the word Christmas in their stores at all. I, for one, am very much offended by the phrase "Happy Holidays." I will not buy anything with that phrase on it! Why call a Chrismas tree a holiday tree? What other holiday is it for? It's not for New Year's. It's not for Kwanzaa. It's for Christmas. But they just don't want to use His name or recognize Him at all.

This Christmas, I encourage you not to buy anything that says "Happy Holidays" where it should say "Merry Christmas." These executives only listen when their wallets are affected. Our God has done so much for us; how can we do Him this great disrespect?

Well, enough venting -- back to the topic at hand. :) Here is the article:

Buy a Latte, Support a Political Party
