Wal-Mart, the AFA and the boycott that happened anyway

Well, to catch you up to speed…Wal-Mart did several things to cozy up to the homosexual activists, (who knows why, since they don’t represent a very large consumer base, and the demands they make are always over-the-top).

Misc Commentary For Nov 22, 2006
