Check out what the fascists at Taco Hell are up to. You won't believe this

Arnold is red meat

Davis is a chicken

Bustamante is a chalupa(Fucking racist statement)


WARNING
Paragraphs below may be offensive to some.


I don't eat at that runny ass juice "restaurant". But would encourage others to boycott them and write to them, telling them what a bunch of idiots they are.

Fuck you Taco Smell, you, your food, and your obvious political slant sucks on the diarrhea that your crappy excuse for food gives me.

5. Thank you, I'm calling them now.
And will bring up your points, and also that labeling Bustamante with the chalupa is racist and offensive.

8. Yes he was.

He also served as a U.S. Army Captain in Vietnam and was awarded the Bronze Star for meritorious service.

14. Yes but,
Edited on Wed Aug-27-03 06:11 PM by Liberal_Guerilla
That doesn't mean that you won't educate your unknowing friends to their political slant and racism. After all, Liberal college students Luv Taco smell, but if they knew that they were supporting a bunch of fascists, they would no longer eat there anymore.

11. on a positive note...
....this is sort of getting folks interested in voting or participating.


And I think its kind of cool Cruz Bustamente is the chalupa.


That sounds kind of funky....instead of "the Big Daddy" Cruz can be the "Big Chalupa" in Sacramento

16. The taco is half full in your nacho dish.
I personally find labeling Bustamante after a supposed Mexican dish to be offensive.

13. Is this even legal?
I know McCain-Feingold only applies to federal elections; anyone know what CA law has to say?

18. A California Democrat should file a lawsuit immediately
If this ad was reversed, the Republicans would already have filed a lawsuit and Taco Bell would drop the Arnold promotion for fear of bad publicity.

The Democratic Party needs to find some Democrat who is willing to file a lawsuit for violating campaign finance law.

It doesn't matter if the lawsuit would succeed before the election, it needs to be done right away to make a point.

17. Guess who owns stock in the company?
From MWO:

"Oh and buy the way, Arnold happens to own about a $1 million of stock in PepsiCo Inc, who owns Taco Bell. "

21. Holy runny ass juice Batman.
Well, there we go. Now we know to boycott Pepsico and all of their subsidiary's as well. What other pies does the Nazi have his fingers into? Let's make the turdmenator a business pariah.

22. Didnt Pepsico divest?

23. I've already boycotted them
Due to their lack of support to the farmworkers getting a raise down here in Florida.

That and Kentucky Fried Chicken for their inhumane treatment of animals.

25. Yeah KFC and all of the fast food joints abuse animals.
it makes me sick. I wish that I had a huge sanctuary where I could rescue and care for all the mis-treated animals in the world.

24. I don't eat at Taco Bell anyway
I'm a vegetarian and everything is meat based, so in a way I am all ready boycotting them. But I will be sure to tell all my meat-eater friends.
