Ha! I just saw the "news." Duke, it's called business. Why should Wally World promote yours??

That would definitely clean up the place! I see stacks of em around here so you can take those to Kmart too. Maybe they'll stuff them in bags to unsuspecting customers so they can get rid of them.

[FIRED UP]

THIS IS FRONT PAGE NEWS? THIS IS GETTIN MORE PATHETIC EVERY DAY. CAN'T EVEN GET NOBODY TO DO THE NEWS HERE.

Called Wal-Mart today to show my support of their business decision. boo.hiss.Duke ..guess Wal-Mart has too much class to advertise in his rag so he thought he'd rail on them. glad to do what I could. gotta love this country.

I sent out an email to our entire church and the congregation called all the numbers to let them know we would like the papers back in the stores.

I also saw the story had been picked up by several of the anti Walmart sites and they all asked their readers to call the numbers.

Guess you are out numbered. lol

So, are the papers back yet? Thought not. Of course anyone going to an anti walmart site would not be shopping at walmart anyway. But you already knew that. Maybe CW can hand them out at the library!

can someone explain what papers are being talked about???

People like you are why folks don't go to church. WWJD????

[bill maybry]

the Walmart did not specifically pull the papers you are discussing. All papers all over the country have been removed.

Does your church know several of their biggest posters are athiests who post regularly trying to convince everyone there is no God?

[Polk taxpayer]

What church is this? Seems like the members could do something more productive that presents a better witness.

I bet there is a lot of people who read the rome news who are atheists too. I do not see how it is the particular papers fault who reads their paper or who joins. Are you saying because one is, that the paper or whatever should discriminate against them?

I am confused at your logic.

Just found out that several of our members resent the email to family all over and our youth took it up on their myspace accounts.

Walmart may not give in but their phone is ringing.:)

[Bev]

You never said what church Sally? I would like to let them know what kind of paper they are protesting for.

[Polk taxpayer]

There has to be a wonderful way the youth can be encouraged to make a difference in the community such as cleaning up an elderly member's yard or just visiting with someone.

I was in a restaurant tonight with a huge stack of the papers behind the register. What a waste of paper. Maybe the folks in Rome want them, but Polk Co. doesn't seem to have a use for them.

folks in rome don't want them either.

I cannot believe the nerve of that Newswire idiot thinking that he is so important that Walmart would stop what it's doing to cater to his little handout. He doesn't even make any money from them! What an EGOMANIAC!!!

You were asked which church. Just like goodfella you have no cred.

[bill roberson]

You think she will tell you which church she goes to so you vultures can sit at your computer and trash it?

You people are in serious need of a hobby that does not include typing on a keyboard. lol
