Just like it’s impossible to boycott Iran, Burma, or Communist China, one ex-Fred Thompson staffer’s effort to boycott Chuck Norris seems doomed to failure:
I want you to join me in boycotting all of the products that Chuck Norris endorses and some of the national companies that run advertisements on the show in which he starred and currently rerunning on the USA cable network, Walker, Texas Ranger. I also ask that you tell these companies why you are boycotting them. (See list to the right with contact information and post below for a sample e-mail.)
Darrell Ng reasons that Norris is endorsing Mike Huckabee, who at one time favored rounding up people with AIDS, and doesn’t believe in evolution, and that deserves consumer oppobrium.
Ng targets Total Gym, Geico, and KFC. Oh, and Tylenol, which advertises during reruns of Walker, Texas Ranger on USA. Which is a shame because watching reruns of Walker, Texas Ranger to find out who actually advertises during the show would give me a headache.
He’d better hope Aleve and Advil don’t run commercials in that time slot, too.
Something to say?
