Their problem is that they can't boycott what they never supported in the first place and as we have witnessed in the Wal-Mart hearings, emotion is not law.April E.

Literally, Spokane, our closest metropolis, is 75 miles away. As temporary town folk of Pullman, we are far from reality in more than just a distance sense."<BR/><BR/>Well, Pullman IS my reality and a lot of other people's reality. I find it "appalling" that "temporary town folk" would try to make decisions for those of us who don't have the good fortune to live in the "real world".Tom Forbeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02080804561058476349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13796804.post-1138324459396114202006-01-26T17:14:00.000-08:002006-01-26T17:14:00.000-08:00I'm becoming accustomed to them myself.

I am 100% for Wal-Mart in Pullman. What I meant was that the lost tax dollars are not being replaced by the anti-Wal-Marters, they only offer their wishful thinking as a substitute. Gee, not that's never clear either.April E.

In other words, a supportable position has been taken. If you want to rebut it, you should do the same. Otherwise, it is fairly hard to take you seriously.Beelzebubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639111778598693213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13796804.post-1138313536462609912006-01-26T14:12:00.000-08:002006-01-26T14:12:00.000-08:00Something for consideration:http://www.thenewedito...Something for consideration:<BR/><BR/>http://www.theneweditor.com/index.php?/archives/1991-Thousands-Apply-for-Jobs-at-New-Wal-Mart.htmlBeelzebubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639111778598693213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13796804.post-1138257419796099832006-01-25T22:36:00.000-08:002006-01-25T22:36:00.000-08:00That amount is easily made up from wishful thinkin...That amount is easily made up from wishful thinking and taxing someone else.April E.
