Tell Build-A-Bear to get stuffed

From Maura Flynn at BigGovernment.com:
This missive is directed at the guardians of, and donors to, tiny humans. If you fall into that category you likely are already familiar with Build-A-Bear, a world-wide corporation that provides the most innocent of services. They sell customizable stuffed animals. Make your own bear, dog... penguin. Cute concept.

So cute, in fact, that the Build-A-Bear empire sweeps across nearly every state and into 17 other countries. You'll find their outlets in shopping malls everywhere and even some ballparks. The company also has a website called Build-A-Bearville.com where children can play an interactive video game that, on it's surface, is unlikely to raise suspicion or sound alarms.

But when your unsuspecting tot logs on and hops a virtual train to the North Pole... you should know that he or she will be informed - by Santa Claus - that Christmas may be canceled this year due to Global Warming....

Children of the world can look forward to priceless exchanges such as, "Oh my! Where will the polar bears live?" and my personal fave: "Where will the elves live?..."

Needless-to-say, this constitutes brainwashing on the sleaziest and most sinister level. The good news is that this nonsense isn't coming from our government this time and the rocky economy is our friend here. People, we have the means, if we have the will, to topple these charlatans who shamelessly prey on little children. So boycott Build-A-Bear. And, more importantly, tell the world why.

Go tell it on the mountain, and hurry, before it melts.

Well, I don't have mountain nearby, but I'm happy to spread the word here at Grumpytown.
