Wal-Mart Goes PC

Yes folks, it is a sign of the apocalypse, Wal-Mart that bastian of all things Red State is now being accused of being too liberal by some in the conservative world.

Supposedly these critics are saying that the efforts Wal-Mart has made to offer some health insurance to employees, as well as their recent environmental efforts, are losing the company money.

Newsweek has an article in the June 9 issue that discusses the efforts of Peter Flaherty, leader of the National Legal and Policy Center, to voice these conservative concerns. The group has attended shareholder meetings, but actually didn't have a spot on the agenda during the 2008 meeting because their 2007 proposal didn't get enough votes.

But of course they will surely try again.
