Now if the button had read..........
One Nation, under Science,.......... it would have been liberal approved. |

Now if someone would very publically offer him another job and keep the possibility of lawyers out of it, it would be a win-win outcome.

Friggin enough with the PC junk. Maybe I am just in a bad mood today, but I sent Home Depot the following short email. I will report if I get a reply. I wish I
had included in my email to them a link to the article.
--------------------------------------
Dear Home Depot,
Today I read some very disturbing news and wanted to confirm this information. Is it true that Home Depot will not allow one
of its employee's to wear a simple pin that reads "In God we trust"? If this is the case or if this email goes unanswered, I seriously doubt if
I will ever step foot or purchase any thing from Home Depot ever again.
Thank you
"my full name was here"

Imagine if the Home Depot worker had called the seasonal section with lights, decorations and fake trees: 'Christmas trees' and not the Obama America
speak of 'Holiday Tree'. Do you get one slip up or 3?
If he was a gay activist wearing a 'ACT UP' button it would have reached the point of being terminated? Cork |

I wonder if the pin had said, "One Nation, under Allah." Anyway, since Lowes is across the street, I do most of my shopping there. Also, Lowes will
give 10% off if you show you were in the Military. I carry around my DD 214.

I still have not received a reply. I also have not been back to home depot. It looks like it will be Lowes and Ace hardware from here on out.

No reply for me either. I don't go to HD anymore either.
The proof is in the doing, not in the saying. |

I'm a little behind the times, but I did fire off a nastygram to Home Depot today.

Glad to see you back, Charlie. I sent an e-mail as soon as I heard about this. Have not heard anything back, and have not made nor do I plan to ever again make
any purchases at Home Depot.

I'm glad to be back and I did it WITHOUT Obama's help.
