Deconstructing Whoopi – a Republican Responds

[ELVIS]

Slim Fast should get someone at least slim...

I don't have a problem with her being anti-Bush because I fully expect it from most celebrities. It's not like most people that get fired from their endorsements are done so for their political jabs. When you endorse a product, you are allowing your image to be associated with it, and if your image doesn't reflect what you were originally hired for, anyone has a right to can you IMO.

..and you're exactly right...

If there were any truth in advertising, you would have someone throwing up after drinking that sludge. That's how you really lose the weight. :D

But, that would offend some of you too. I guess you can't please everyone.

It doesn't matter what fucking content she used while saying what she said. It was a personal comment that had nothing to do with the company.

Wrong answer, naive one.

She is paid big bucks to *represent* the company. She is there to project an *image* to consumers.

If the image she presents for the company includes sexual references and mean-spirited hate talk, they have every right to disassociate themselves from her.

Spokespeople aren't hired to turn off consumers.

Whoopie is just too damned stupid for her own good.

That means that Slim Fast has done the marketing research and found out that there are more overweight Shrub supporters than vice versa. Makes sense.

Where's your pic?

I'm not ashamed to say that I weigh around 130 at the most. Haven't checked in a while, but it's somewhere around that.

I did away with most junk food a long time ago.

Actually, most conservatives are indeed older and thus more prone to spare-tire syndrome.

Those tending towards liberalism after reaching middle age are exceptions to the rule.

While it's constitutional, I still find it to be bad taste to fire someone for voicing their objections about fearless leader.

It's a form of protest from a personal standpoint.

It's a marketing decision in this sense i think.

I wouldn't hire stalin to sell my granola bars.

But would you hire him to sell vodka?

[ELVIS]

I would...

That's a better idea than Cabo Wabo Tequila...
