I know everyone is concentrated on what's (hopefully!) going to happen tomorrow, but I've got a quick site recommendation for everyone to check out Wednesday morning.

The purpose of BuyBlue is to educate consumers on the final destination of the money they spend on products and services in their day to day lives.

Like Starbucks? Great, the Starbucks corporation makes 100% of their political contributions to Democratic candidates. They're committed to labor and environmental causes to boot.

But if you dial Dominos for dinner, however, or like McDonalds, Wendy's, or Dairy Queen, you're out of luck. These companies, like most other food service corporations donate overwhelmingly to Republican candidates across the country. By buying Big Macs and Flurries, you are unknowinglye making political contributions to conservative causes.

Companies make donations based on ideology in other industries as well. If you're going shopping, stop by American Apparel, ebay, the Gap, J.Crew, or Polo, but try to avoid most major department stores including Target.

Most sports franchises also donate strictly Republican. If you're looking for a computer or ISP, I'd stick with Apple, Inc., since the other companies' donation patterns show a distinct lean to the right.

With so many of our consumer goods funding causes contrary to our beliefs, it would be near impossible to eliminate them entirely from your daily consumption. BuyBlue gives you the option of education, however, and shouldn't be missed.
