Anti-Hillary Birthday card still on super market shelves
WTF?
I saw this back during the primary but one assumes things like this and the Hillary Nutcracker* would be gone by now.

I was getting a birthday card for my 92 year old dad when this card just jumped off the shelf. Nearly a year since she withdrew and American Greetings and Shaw's see fit to keep this crap on the shelf. I wonder how many they still sell. I hope folks visit both those sites and write the people in charge.

We could just boycott.
*I must confess to owning an unopened Hillary Nutcracker given me by my o'bot future son-in-law. It might be worth a few bucks someday.

If someone put out a card like that about Obama, they'd be branded a racist and ridden out of town on a rail. Hillary will remain a favorite target of this kind of crap. I'm sure that they still sell this card to various kool-aid guzzlers and Hillary hating conservatives. I never buy American Greetings cards anyway, so I guess I always boycott them. We don't have Shaw's Super Markets here where I live.
but really, when I see something like that in a store I'm sorely tempted to light it on fire.
I had no idea they had greeting cards spreading the hate. It is very disturbing.
Someone that would use a birthday care to spread this kind of hate isn't worth bothering with. We need to remember that every time someone tells us to "lighten up, it's just a joke". Because if and when we do then it becomes all right to spread this kind of crap.
And I can tell ya, no matter what female public figure it is done to, including Ann Coulter and Janneane Garafolo, two women that I loathe, it's not all right. Not with me. Now or ever. And I ain't gonna lighten up. Now or ever!
Did I just give away a hint that this kind of thing annoys me a little? Hmmm must be getting more transparent in my old age.
