Abortion Doughnuts
Krispy Kreme is celebrating the inauguration of President Obama by giving away free doughnuts of your choice. Of course, the American Life Leaguee would have a problem with this choice of words. Offering people a choice is a tacit approval of abortion rights. They should have chose the word option in place of choice. Choice is now a potty no-no word thanks to all those nasty people that think that abortion should be legal. In case you think I am exaggerating, allow me to post the exact quote that got the ALL’s panties all in a bunch.
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Inc. (NYSE: KKD) is honoring American’s sense of pride and freedom of choice on Inauguration Day, by offering a free doughnut of choice to every customer on this historic day, Jan. 20. By doing so, participating Krispy Kreme stores nationwide are making an oath to tasty goodies — just another reminder of how oh-so-sweet “free” can be.
I only wish that there was a local Krispy Kreme here in Saskatoon so that I could go and choose the doughnut of my own choice and choose how to eat it. Would I scarf it down? Would I eat it in front of my kids while singing “NA NA YOU CAN’T HAVE ANY! Would I throw it in the trough with the bacon grease and the old socks and devour it, like I usually do? Would I don my long LAYDEE gloves and nibble it delicately while sipping my tea? Nobody knows! But I do love having choices.
Unfortunately, Krispy Kreme kaved (*OMG alliteration!) and changed their wording to reflect the fact that choice is not kool. Here is the updated press release.
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts’ Inauguration Day promotion on Tuesday, January 20, 2009, is offering one, free doughnut of a customer’s choice at participating Krispy Kreme locations nationwide. No purchase is necessary. The promotion allows customers to commemorate Inauguration Day by selecting one free doughnut of any variety at local participating stores. On Election Day, November 4, 2008, Krispy Kreme ran a promotion that provided customers with one free star-shaped doughnut at stores nationwide. The Inauguration Day promotion is not about any social or political issue.
If you want to laugh yourself silly at pompous and self-important people, go ahead and read the crowing going on at ALL. How could anybody possibly parody these people?
