Way to go Philips! Makes me proud to own one of your plasma tv's! Gary Johnson is suing them all to get on the stage. If he can get there he will win the debates and the election so he will never win any of the law suits. |

Phillips makes the most compatible and useful DVD players - not to mention being among the least expensive. They are user friendly and reliable. I'll only buy this brand, since most of the others are in bed with the MPAA. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1308067 United States 10/01/2012 09:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If Gary had a chance in hell of being elected, I would be right there telling all the sponsors to pull out. Unfortunately, he does not have a chance. He wouldn't be elected if Oblabla and Mitt were both hit be righteous lightning and killed on the eve of the election. Nobody wants to elect someone with common sense. Common sense is so rare, it could be classified as a super power. Quoting: Epic Beard Guy That's not necessarily the point - it would be better for the American sheep to have a third party player in the debate that isn't bought and paid for just for calling out the lies of the other two establishment candidates for everyone to see. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 24758430 United States 10/01/2012 09:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's time to have a prime time debate between all the presidential candidates, EXCEPT the reps and dems. Leave uglybama and mittens out of it and let's get some proper perspective from all the others. It could actually be several hours of interesting and honest dialog, and could raise the issues that the monopoly candidates won't. Imagine several weeks of 1 hour debates. Much more interesting than "reality" shows, and less expensive. |

I admire Philips for taking the stand, but they'll just find another sponsor. No way those assholes allow Johnson in the debates. Sucks, but there it is. Nobody in America, statistically speaking, knows who Johnson is. Non-event. |

The only purpose that Johnson is serving is helping keep Obama in office. Putting him on national television in the debates will only serve that purpose even moreso. |

The ONLY 'good' mega-corp I ever worked for. Quoting: tandym Nice to read this. The Dutch mentality is that we don't mind to share our wealth - up to a certain point - 'cos it's better for business when the people you employ feel they are part of 'the family'. Besides that it's better for the social climate when those who rely on welfare have enough to eat. I think sharing is much more fun than keeping everything to yourself.
