Overstock sent a dismissive response to my email on Limbaugh.
Here is my response to them:
Your link does not work so I couldn't read your ceo's philosophy. But this is not a question of not pleasing everyone. Limbaugh said he hopes the President of the US fails in pulling this country out of what could be the next great depression. He said it in a scatological way and injected race into the matter as well. He did all these things on time you helped pay for. Your bland dismissal of comments that are not only outrageous but anti American as well suggests that you agree with him. You certainly are free to sponsor this kind of demeaning speech. My family and I are free to shop elsewhere. Please remove my name from your email list.

5.  They sent me to a link that did not work.
In their response that contained the non-working link, they pointed out that it is impossible to please everyone with the programs they sponsor.

8.  I did not know that until now. No more shopping with them.
BTW I love the Mommas for Obama. Were my Mom alive she would have been one too.

9. red? I don't think so ...
unless you equate "red" with libertarian.

I don't agree with a lot of Patrick Byrne's philosophy, but he seems like a decent person.

4. overstock is doomed...
They've been dipping into the red for the past 3 quarters. I give them less than a year before they fold.

7. Hmmmm - I haven't heard back from them other than an out of office message.
If they don't mind losing customers (I have spent $$$ there) during this economic mess - that's their problem.
