Home Depot politics
BTW Gates and Microsoft gave to both parties

So any of you whose whole lives, including gardening, are permeated with their political convictions might want to go to Loew's, etc. if you need to buy at a big chain store. zemedelec Based on third-hand information, we should boycott one store, but not the other? Are you saying the officers of Lowe's don't contribute to Republicans? Are you saying Lowe's officers contribute to Democrats? Do you have any real information, or are we going to go nuts based on a rumor? Sheesh. If I didn't shop at any stores who's officers or executives gave to the Republicans, I wouldn't be able to shop at all. There's a difference between political convictions and silliness. BTW... Bill Gates is a Democrat. Does that mean Republicans with convictions don't use Microsoft products? Warren Buffet is a Democrat. Does that mean Republicans with convictions shouldn't patronize any companies who's boards he sits on? Silliness. -- Warren H. ========== Disclaimer: My views reflect those of myself, and not my employer, my friends, nor (as she often tells me) my wife.
