Attention Real America: Support The Whole Foods Buycott on September 1 and Beyond

Gateway Pundit reports that patriotic activists in the St. Louis area are sponsoring a "buycott" of their local Whole Foods grocery store on Tuesday, September 1. St. Louis area blogger Dana Lesch further reports that a Dallas buycott will also take place on September 1.

What is a buycott? Simply buy your groceries at Whole Foods to demonstrate support. Several weeks ago, Whole Foods CEO John Mackey wrote an opinion piece for the Wall Street Journal that caused Leftwing Statists to call for a boycott of his chain. Since then, the call has gone out for Patriots to shop at Whole Foods to show support for a CEO who has ideas for creative, free market solutions to improve America's health care system.

Now, the National Tea Party Coalition has created a separate web site to promote Whole Foods Buycotts across the country. They encourage others to set up Whole Foods Buycotts. Hopefully, the month of September will be great for the company and a kick in the nether regions for the Leftist hordes who hoped to damage John Mackey because he supports individual liberty.

Unfortunately, there is no Whole Foods in my neck of the woods. I think the closest are two hours east and two hours south. If you are also out of range for a Whole Foods Buycott event, you can order a gift card and send it to a friend who lives in a Whole Foods city. That suggestion comes from the St. Louis Tea Party. Let's support this brave CEO and his company against the Leftist attack machine.

Patriots Should Shop Whole Foods--Boycott the Boycotters

John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods Market, recently wrote an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal in which he laid out some common sense free-market solutions for problems in the American health care industry. The key to his solution set is a free-market approach, as opposed to government imposed regulations. It seems that was an unpardonable sin that Liberal-Leftist-Progressive-Socialist-Statist Democrats cannot forgive. Leftwing loons are pushing a boycott of the Whole Foods grocery chain.

Mr. Mackey laid out an impressive and thoughtful set of reforms that would address a number of health care issues. They may not be a final answer to the problem, but they are a worthy addition to the debate. Of course, he isn't alone. Conservatives have suggested remedies for the problems that ail the industry for years, but have been blocked by Leftists who realize that legitimate reform would be a barrier to the nationalization they desire. The worldwide failures of socialized medicine do not deter Statist ideologues who have a Utopian vision that will not be shaken by facts or evidence.

The closest Whole Foods to my home is about two hours away and I doubt I will drive to Winston-Salem for a grocery run. However, if you live close to a Whole Foods I hope you will give them a visit and maybe buy your weekly stash from them to show support for John Mackey. In fact, while the DailyKos and Democrat Underground lunatic asylums are championing Facebook-based boycott sites, there is also a pro-Mackey and Whole Foods group on Facebook.

It is obvious that we have an element of our population that has an insatiable desire for government involvement in their lives (unless they want to kill a baby or marry someone who uses the same public restroom). These folks do not desire solutions; they only seek to advance a failed ideology. It is increasingly important for the sane, liberty-loving element of American society (which is the vast majority, by the way) to raise our voices and throw our support behind those who take risks to fight back against the Amerikan Bolsheviks.
