John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods, wrote a really well thought out piece for the WSJ on how there are better ways to reform the healthcare and insurance system and his customers call for boycott.

Logically, this would make the people boycotting the store healthcare reform opponents, since that is what Mackey is advocating for. Maybe Pelosi will call them Nazis and we can all sing Kum By Ya together.

The funniest thing was that the boycott/protest was ACTUALLY working. You would see couples/families with their canvas bags ready to go grocery shopping walking nearby, yet I never saw a single person enter the store while I was watching the "mayhem" -- ten bucks though that they drove their Prius to the next one three blocks over...
