Off the top of my head, the only boycott supported by Obama that I can think of is the boycott of North Korea.
But I'm sure there are more.
Oh, and... he only buys American-made suits.

"...prompted calls for a boycott." is hardly a boycott.
My personal take on this?
Well said...
I already shop at Whole Foods several times a week, and all this liberal bashing because the CEO exercised his right of free speech has made me want to go today and buy out all the organic, low-fat, sugar-free, high-fiber, non-PBA, free-range items on the shelves.
So a blogger calls for a boycott. Hell, I'll believe it when I see the author of that piece get off his ass and actually carrying a picket sign in front of the Whole Foods.
Then I'll just walk right by him and get a shopping cart.

You mean, Obama has no personal ties to oil corporations in a foreign land that bears the "friend" tag but was the nationality of the 18 out of the 19 terrorist plane hijackers of September 11?
I mixed the presidents again - these were George Bush Sr. and George W. Bush.

Greg, would you mind pointing out where either the DNC or Obama support or encourage the Whole Foods thing?
People do this sort of thing all of the time...
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...070303769.html
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...y-1256725.htmlThe American Family Association (AFA) launched the boycott yesterday because McDonald's joined the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce several months ago and placed an executive on the group's board of directors, in addition to donating to the chamber.
Those weren't "fear campaigns" supported by Republicans?The Southern Baptist Convention, the United States' largest Protestant denomination, yesterday launched a boycott against the Walt Disney Co because of what it said were Disney's "gay-friendly" policies.
(actually, they weren't... they were hate campaigns organized by "religious" groups quite independent of Republicans)
Is Bill O'Reilly still boycotting the entire country of France?

John, both of those are very good examples and simply another black eye on equality and rights in the USA.
I remember the Disney Boycott for two reasons: We were going to Disney and the Southern Baptist group expanded it to everything that had Disney on it, which included a call to boycott ABC television, any new movie being released by their studios, ESPN, and on and on and on.
These are people who live in a bubble and want no one or nothing to infiltrate their little space. And I can respect that. At the same time, I respect the fact that there are differences in people.
FOXnews sucks. Period.
I rarely view them.
To give you an example, yesterday's news on the release of the Lockerbie terrorist...
When CNN took a break, I flipped over to FOXnews. The female anchor was interviewing a father who's son was killed in that bombing. As they were following the motorcade, she was asking the most moronic questions, at one point wanting to argue with the man.
He related that he the media was making this a huge media event and follow a motorcade. He felt the person did not deserve all that attention. The anchorwoman, obviously perturbed, interrupted him and said something like, "Well, sir, in all fairness we are not the only ones broadcasting this.
That statement makes it better for him and the other families?
I was even pissed at the statement and almost a lecture tone coming out of her.
Just further entrenched my dislike of FoxNews.

Glenn Beck's show is as detestable as they come and even long time Fox News fans blush at having to discuss this idiot. Calling the president a racist was the straw that broke the camels back.
Glenn Beck told his viewers that their computer and information on it become property of the US government if they visited CARS.gov for information on Cash for Clunkers. I got this warning about cars.gov from a friend in the form of an email so people are believing this total lie.
Over 1 million people have viewed this YouTube.com video of Beck spewing his fabricated news:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWs12ccbOiE
As someone who has been on Cars.gov I know this is bullshit. Ordinary citizens wanting information on the Cash for Clunkers program are not subject to anything remotely like what Beck claims.
Distorting the truth about government programs and calling it news is an offense that deserves to be boycotted and exposed for what it is propaganda.

A boycott does not stop them from continuing to abuse their 1st amendment right. They can still lie like a rug and I guess get away with it. If you want to support Fox News' right to misconstrue on the truth you have that right.
Do you believe Glenn Beck that if you go to this link the government will require you to accept a form that allows the government to have complete control of your computer? :
http://Cars.gov
Please tell me. Do you really believe Glen Beck and Fox News when they lie like this?
Conservatives boycott companies as well as Liberals, independents etc. I don't call them Commies and Socialists for exercising their rights. I might disagree with them but that is their right to boycott companies whose business practices are unethical and/or don't support their values. It is leverage for the average citizen against large corporations that have the money to pay lobbyists and advertisers to get out their points of view.

People can choose to spend their money wherever they please, on any basis, whether they are left or right.
The notion that any president is going to run through any of a zillion lists of boycotts by organizations across the spectrum and say, "Oh, I like this one... don't like that one... not sure about this one..." is just silly.
Obviously, the president supports your continued spouting of nonsense on this forum, since he is not stopping it.

Wow you're on a mission
I'm curious, where have you been for the past 9 years ?
NameNewsletter.com - free lists of available domain names
ZoneFiles.net (beta) - ccTLD and gTLD droplists
I don't boycott someone because of their beliefs. I boycott them because of my experiences with them.
Moreover, boycott for me is simply not the best choice of words. I simply stop doing business with a particular firm, company, or service for personal reasons.
Someone calling for a boycott is not a boycott.
I do not eat at TacoBell because I dislike the food. The same for Bojangles.
I do not buy Ford automobiles anymore because I do not like the local dealerships and their service. The same with Dodge.
I do not like eight o'clock's coffee beans as I think they are weak. I think CompUSA's and CircuitCity's bait and switch tactics, floor service, sales staff sucked. Obviously, I was not the only that thought so.
I no stopped banking at Wachovia nearly two decades ago because they kept changing my "personal banker" and kept raising their fees.
If you want to say I am boycotting them then fine. I choose Coke over Pepsi, Samuel Adams over Bud, Outer Banks over Myrtle Beach. Does that mean I am boycotting Pepsi, Bud, Myrtle Beach?
It is all about personal likes, dislikes, and choices.
You can join an organized boycott or picket line to your heart's content. Just make sure you are doing it for the right reason.
Four students from NC AT&T staged a sit in at a lunch counter in Greensboro, NC. The subsequent boycott was successful and brought about change.
Air Traffic controllers went on strike - a form of boycotting their own place of employment and organization - and were fired and replaced by the President of the US.
If you don't stand for something,
you'll fall for anything.

Do you ever list a source for your BS? You don't even say what organization supposedly threatened the great and mighty Fox News empire. I don't doubt that there are groups out there that are sick of the lies and stated this but I'm not sure who you are even talking about?
Just because some anonymous person wrote a letter doesn't mean squat. Did they hurt Fox News feelings? Did this group run FoxNews out of business? I think FoxNews is doing just fine and will continue to entertain the masses with their programming.
But since you can't be bothered to take the time to find the source I went a head and did the research for you. Here is your angry citizen who posted this angry post in a forum promoting a boycott of Fox News:

The time is ripe to take this beyond boycott. We must stop at nothing less than total financial destruction of FOX “News”. By this I mean organizing massive physical demonstrations (peaceful, with permits) outside of “brick and mortar” sponsors such as KIA dealerships, IHOP and Red Lobster franchises, and AT&T Wireless Stores, with the goals being 1) generating as much possible negative press with signs like “KIA Finances Domestic Terrorism by Sponsoring Bill O’Reilly” and “AT&T Finances Domestic Terrorism by Sponsoring Sean Hannity” and 2) wreaking so much havoc on their bottom lines that they are left with no choice but to cease and desist their financial support of Right Wing Domestic Terrorism.
If jobs are lost – SO BE IT. These, like all the other jobs lost due to the Bush Recession, are a direct result if the neoconservative takeover of the USA and attempted destruction of the Middle Class, of which FOX served (and continues to serve) as the Ministry of Propaganda. THIS ENDS NOW.

Fret not Greg, I know there is a lot of confetti in the air these days, but we are still dealing with special interests imitating government. When you're funded by companies like Goldman Sachs ($994,795 in campaign contributions), keeping ripples out of the domestic pond is priority numero uno. If there are any boycotts taking place, I guarantee they'll only last as long as a misty eyed Obama supporter can fart in someone's face. Yes it'll smell like Ritalin and sour organic food, but the good news is you can slip past that segment of the American social ladder simply by the default of staying sane... and maybe wearing a gas mask.
Find yourself a comfortable quiet seat outside of the political paradigm, and start contemplating how to deal with the real problem facing the United States... which is the fact that the Federal Government no longer represents the interests of the American people.
