Mattel Toys: Let's Boycott

Any grandparents reading this column? How about mom's and dad's? Finally, rather than reading about a subject and shaking your head in disgust why not take a stand to show your support for America.
I refer to a "talking" doll made by Mattel that has been on the shelves for a couple of months but as we approach Christmas the controversy of what it says has put it back in the limelight. Press a button and you distinctly hear, "Islam is the light". Mattel executives tell us that we are only imagining this and refuse to take it off the shelves. Think hard and long about this. It's Post World War II and we're doing business with the Japanese, again. Crappola! Pretend it's today! They send over a doll and it tells us that, "Shinto is the light" Give me a big time break, please.
Well, grandparents and parents: You have the power of the pocketbook. You can go to http://www.labelthatdoll.com/ or log onto www.service@mattel.com to vent/show your displeasure. If you want to start a big row why not just visit a store that sells these dolls and let the owner's know you won't buy any Mattel products, period, until the jihadist is removed. Remember what I wrote last week. Follow the money. It works every time.
I'm sure we can expect the usual suspects, ACLU, etc. to come to the aid of whomever so don't give out your name, phone number or address after you rip the heads off the dolls. Oops! Only kidding about that. I'm on a fixed income; can't afford lawyer fees.
