Just to let you know, those companies are now on my "do not shop there" list....

To use the company name is wrong wrong wrong, so I will send my money somewhere else.

Little Eddie Pinegar gave lots more than your report, so far.

He, his wife, his kids, his business associates, his employees, lots of folks converted Little Eddie's income to Billy's campaign.

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Tom, the FEC requires employment disclosure. So, shop 'til you drop.

Just realized my daughter's husband's company is on that list. He was laid off for about 7-8 months earlier this year.
