At the same time, I'm not going to assume what one company does or doesn't do with its profits. Yet it's, as I said earlier, living in a fantasy world for me to ignore publicly stated facts regarding how a company spends its profits. Furthermore, I'm not going to excuse one company's practices based on the argument that it should be assumed that many other companies I support use their profits in ways I would not agree. That is a fallacious argument.
A little exploring can be a dangerous thing! No more White Castle! No more Waffle House! <sob>
5 Food Companies Run by Radical Right-Wingers
I can ease your mind on the Waffle one, if he is a close associate of Romney, as the story mentions, he isnt radically right wing. MA doesnt elect radically right wingers in statewide elections.
Someone who thinks Romney is radical is way too tied up in Team Red/Team Blue rah rah BS.
I also wonder about White Castle . . . the amount of money donated was minimal, and they are headquartered just down the way from John Boehner (also in Ohio), so I wonder if it was just a "cover your ass" donation.
