Gina Loudon talks about the Whole Foods BUYcott

I interviewed Gina Loudon about the Tea Party's BUYcott of Whole Foods toward the end of the event. At that time she estimated that we had as many as 1000 receipts.

I am very happy to see the freemarket principles being applied. I will start to look for my closest whole foods market , hopefully they are in canada.

This is great. Way to go, Gina, and whoever was involved in the coordination!

I couldn't attend last night - and I wasn't sure if anybody was going to show up (I was unclear as to how publicized this was)....

...but when I heard this morning that there were 1000 receipts!? $50,000 spent!? Wow!!

I REALLY think the tide is turning in this country. Conservatively minded people - who are all too familiar with 'cursing the darkness' - ar starting to 'light candles' - it's great to see!

She is pretty but was it not possible to move the camera back a few feet? Seriously. Way too close a zoom. Just ruins the whole thing.

dude i shop at Whole Foods because i know what the money spent supports. a relative hand full of people were active in the boycott. and guess what i agree with the ceo's statement he is for healthcare reform but the plan on the table was not a good one. so once again thanks for pumping money into liberal companies that make the products at whole foods. because that is what the ceo gets from the left, product

[richardzuendt]

Hey numbnuts, your a moron. Conservatives defend EVERYONE'S right to free speech. All the CEO of Whole Foods did was write an Op-Ed on his idea about healthcare. What does he get from the left? He got a boycott of Whole Foods that would hurt the employees of Whole Foods, people who I am sure need their jobs. You and your kind are the ones who hurt the little people.

Great video! When Gina came to New Jersey, we also interviewed her. Of course, we also came close to going to jail. Gina is a great American who is fighting the good fight against the liberal hoards!

[mjxc1627]

but i do hope you are all enjoying the good food, and from all the liberals who are not boycotting thanks for the blind liberal support

[mjxc1627]

so you laugh at whole foods organic/conservation/liberal style products and now you are all excited about fresh foods and buying products who are made my companies that fund and support green, global warming, gay and lesbian, conservation, anti capital movements just to stick it to a few people who feel the need to boycott? you do know that you are giving money to the left with this, and a politically generated "buycott" is not a free market example, its the exact opposite. think before you act

Good job Gina. I am a buycotter too.
