There has been a lot of attention paid to Arby’s announcement that it no longer would advertise on the Limbaugh show.
It was particularly interesting because Arby’s did not advertise to begin with, so it purely was a political statement, and was the subject of a Limbaugh tweet on Friday.
That has caused a lot of action on Twitter, with Arby’s blocking conservatives who complained, only to unblock them after a firestorm erupted.
I've always said that "failing to show up to riot" was a failed conservative policy. Nice to see people are waking up.
Besides Arby's fake protest and fake product, they are a agent of the nanny state by serving pre-chewed beef for people who are too lazy to chew it on their own!
Strange.
I would think that most of Arby's customers would tend to vote Republican rather than Democrat. Arby's specializes, after all, in selling cow carcass.
Yup, I was sad to see Arbys in this ruckus. Their sandwiches always made me think of Labour Day weekends in Telkwa (the first place I ever saw "mass produced" roast beef sandwiches). Good memories. Sadly, because Arbys decided to become political, no more.
Wow I never realized Arbys had hired a new marketing guru by the name of Wyle Coyote. Must of been that genius label on his business card.
There's a boycott that won't cost me anything. If I could buy their sandwich based on how bad it was and sell it for how good it looks in pictures, I would be wealthy. In addition to the fake beef, the cheese tastes like orange engine sludge.
Druxy's FTW...
That cheese is unique. I wonder whether there is really any cheese in there.

Prove it.

Nicely put. And, as Breitbart demonstrated over and over, the so-called tolerant left is completely incapable of coping with even the most tangential confrontation with conservatives in the street: witness their crazed displays of fear and loathing at the mere mention of a Tea Party rally.
The answer to the Alinsky method is counter demonstrations to expose the left's hypocrisy, bad faith, and willingness to lie and commit crimes to seize political power.
Dogpile fail.
'Liquid meat' according to a buddy who worked there years ago. I never saw a liquid cow, so no, no thanks.
I never eat their crap does that count as a political statement now?
I darkened their door about 25 years ago....once!
The current name for their sort of "beef" is pink slime.....reconstituted meat scraps pressed into a lump.....
It sounds like a Jamocha Shakedown.
I have noticed in a couple software seminars now that big companies like Coke, for example, have software to monitor the twitterverse and facebook, etc for sentiment analysis. Use this fact. We don't even need to be organized. Just tweet how you feel about a brand, for instance, I just chose a store called Ton Ton, I think, I don't even remember, over JC Pennies to buy some stuff I would normally buy at Pennies.
When you do stuff like that, tweet about it. They will hear.
By the way, don't tweet ironically, I don't think the software does irony. Make it clear.
I actually was a big fan of Arbys and have eaten delicious food there. I have also had three hamburgers, a shake and fries at MacDonalds for a buck. Neither in the past 40 years, alas.
My fake boycott will balance theirs.
