1. Thanks

I saw this the other day, but just realized that it would make a perfect chew toy for my parents pit bull puppy. Imagine, little gnawed-upon Shrubyas, all over the yard.

2. Get it for him ....

and the next night give him a GI Joe and tell him that this guy is the "Real American Hero".

4. Ugh! Ugh!

Oh, what a disgusting war. Oh, what a disgusting resident!

A friend of mine has talked about getting his son PEACEKEEPERS action figures (yes, they sell them). Then there's always the firefighter action figure, a noble choice as well.

5. Awwwww, c'mon!!!

Get it for him, and a Malibu Barbie, and watch the fun that ensues when she beats the pants off of him!!!

Seriously, though- I'm just speechless. Has the office of President of the US come to be cheesy action figure fodder? This can't be good.

6. he has returned

honor and DIGNITY to the WhiteHouse


That is just embarrasing

9. Malibu Barbie? Maybe Malibu Ken might be interested too

i'd like to think our dolls don't have to conform to these draconian "one man one woman" relationships!

7. This is too scary....

I was watching the movie The Mortal Storm. This movie made in 1940 (which is almost two years before the US entered the war) stars Jimmy Stewart and Maureen O Sullivan (I think she's in it). It is set in 1933 Germany just as Hitler assumes power and it centers around one family who is led by a professor (remember Hitler and the Nazis loathed intellectuals just like their progeny in the Repuke party today). In one scene the family is enjoying a birthday dinner and the news comes over the radio that Hitler was now chancellor of Germany. One of the dinner guests (played by Robert Young of Father Knows Best) is overjoyed at the prospect of having Hitler as chancellor. He goes on to comment that those who are not with us are against us. Another young dinner guest also comments that Hitler will make Germany proud again and those that want peace will have it but if war is needed so be it.

The above scene could have been filmed in a number of American households in 2002 or 2003.

People who don't see the similarities between now and then are only deluding themselves. The Nazis didn't haul all the Jews and other "undesireables" to concentration camps in one day. It took legislation and constant demonization of the other for German people to accept the persecution of the Jews.

18. YES! I saw that movie...

around a year or so ago and was blown away by what I was hearing -- when I heard the "You're with us or against us" speech I almost fell off my couch.

It is really chilling to know that you are witnessing the very same type of actions that led to one of the world's most horrific episodes.

8. I'd only buy it as Voodoo Doll material

:eyes:

10. Is it my imagination, or do I see two bulging

testicles (socks?). They sure take the illusion to the max. Disgusting.

[JVS]

11. I'm getting a few of these

They look like they will be worth a lot of money in 20 some years.

[Ilsa]

12. $40 stinking bucks!

No way, not even for a chew toy.

[JVS]

13. Oh didn't see the price

I guess I'll wait until they go on sale

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. Wait till they hit the dollar store, which they will, right next to O.J.'s

book, Fergie's book, Justin Timberlake's doll, all those other ridiculously expensive PR gimmicks.

[qb]

14. I'd guess they'll hit the clearance bin before too long

There are only so many clueless idiots with $40 to throw away.

[Lady Freedom]

15. You have got to be kidding?!

And why would someone buy that... wait... my parents would! never mind. I will be next to that 8" by 11" glossy of him in there house when they learn about it! :(

[hippiechick]

17. paint a yellow stripe down his back ....

:puke:


The worst part of it is, he probably thinks it makes him 'cool'.
What a moron.


:hippie:

19. there's even a tiny bulge in his tiny flightsuit!

Gee, I can't decide which is funnier -- this, or the "talking Bush" doll that repeats his garbled phrases.

[NightTrain]

20. I'm going to puke....

:puke:

There, that's better!
