An advertisement ran on British television for the company's New York Deli Mayo featured a man who children called "mum," a kiss between two men and the closing words from one man to another "Love ya! Straight home from work, sweet cheeks." After receiving a reported 200 complaints about the commercial, Heinz pulled the ad from the airwaves, less than a week into its expected five-week run.

At least two sponsors pulled their advertising over semi-naked women.
The public is outraged after a New York radio station placed at least 75 offensive billboards within a 50-mile radius of the Big Apple. At least two sponsors have pulled their ads.
K-Rock has put billboards in the tri-state area that basically have naked women with bare backs, said Len Deo, president of the New Jersey Family Policy Council. And these billboards are on roads where young children and families are seeing them. We got a number of complaints from our constituents and immediately went to action."
In response, Deo said, a "number of the advertisers" pulled their advertising. On its Web site, K-Rock said the billboards are about to come down.
Phil Burress, president of Citizens for Community Values, has been successful in getting offensive billboards in Cincinnati removed.

An English-language advocate says a recent decision by Tyson Foods to reinstate Labor Day at its processing plant in Shelbyville, Tennessee, shows that ordinary Americans are fed up with multiculturalism and Islamic pandering.
Tyson Foods created an uproar when it announced recently that its Shelbyville plant would no longer have Labor Day as a paid holiday, but instead that the 1,000 affected union employees would have October 1 off, which corresponds to the end of the Muslim festival of Ramadan. The move reportedly was aimed at accommodating the 250 Somali Muslim employees who work at the Shelbyville plant.

Home Schooling Constitutional
MADE A DIFFERENCE!
Home schoolers in California and their supporters are celebrating a legal decision in which the court handing down a ruling that actually reversed itself.
Earlier today (Friday) the California Court of Appeal ruled that the state's education code allows parents to home school their children. That decision means parents do not have to obtain state credentials in order to home school. The court acknowledged that a state prohibition on home schooling would intrude on parents' constitutional right to direct their children's education, and that that any limit on that right would be presumed unconstitutional.

Eager to protect Democratic senators from coal-producing and heavy industrial states, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) pulled the Lieberman-Warner carbon-cap bill from the Senate floor and Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) says its not coming back. This is a major, but temporary, victory for conservatives. And it is worth reviewing why we won this battle, so we will be ready when the left tries to force similar policy on Americans in the future.

After months of pressure from an anti-gay-marriage group, McDonald's Corp. has given up a director's seat and will stop sponsorship of a national gay business organization.
Richard Ellis, who until last month was vice president of communications of McDonald's USA, has resigned from the board of directors of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, franchisees were told in a Sept. 23 memo.
McDonald's USA, which had made a $20,000 donation to the chamber and became a 2008 chamber sponsor, said it would not sponsor the organization in 2009.
Ellis, the company said, "made a personal decision to step down" from the board after he got a new position with McDonald's Canadian operations. "It is our policy to not be involved in political and social issues. McDonald's remains neutral on same-sex marriage or any 'homosexual agenda' as defined by the American Family Association," the memo said.
