* birthday card I saw today.

[demgurl]

I was shopping at my local grocery store and I saw a * card. HE was all prim and proper in his mission accomplished suit and waving to the crowd. The wording (I am doing this from memory and a poor memory at that) on the front said Happy Birthday from the Commander In Chief and Leader of the Free World.

On the inside it said........





Wait for it.......








Wait...........




And you thought your biggest problem was growing old.





Just wanted to share, when I saw it I thought of my DU family.

[NanceGreggs]

1. And thank you for thinking of us!

:rofl:

[wryter2000]

2. LOL

I bet freepers will report the card to the manager.

4. Quick! Call FOX Security!!. . . . . . n/t

[HarveyBrooks]

3. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd love to know where to get a few!!!!!!

[UCLA02]

7. I think Target sells them.

You might ask Claude Allen to pick a few up for you. I hear he can get them cheap.

But seriously, I've seen them there.

[acmavm]

21. OOOOOOOOHHHHH, I love that picture of John Lennon. Somehow I

doubt that he'd be pimping for a brokerage firm in his older years.

I somehow think that he'd have stayed true to himself.

28. You may say I'm a dreamer...

...but I'm not the only one.

I love the entire Imagine video, of course, but this quite a fine representative still.

35. Your thoughts on John are awful cute

God bless him! I picture him being more of a radical Bono. Perhaps doing a benefit concert in Dubai (UAE) with Michael Jackson to raise money for CITGO to give free gas to New Orleans... that sort of thing.

I could see him sellin shit, tongue and cheek, just like Jerry Garcia (Jerry, when asked to advertise his line of ties by wearing one, replied, "Fuck no. It is bad enough that I let you sell them.")

12. Harvey...

If you want a couple I would be glad to buy them and send them to you. You could PM me your addy.

[babylonsister]

5. Perfect...sadly. I

recently celebrated a big b'day and received a * card (in jest, I trust).
Front: Pic of dimson drawn in pencil, "You're not getting older
Inside sentiment: You're getting more distinguishabler.

The blivet is even taking a beating in the card aisles!

:rofl:

[demgurl]

11. babylonsister.....

I loved my card but yours was great. I am still chuckling. Thanks!

[babylonsister]

14. I'm happy to return the chuckles as yours

cracked me up!
I can't bear to even look at his mug on a card, so you're a stronger person than myself! :hi:

[demgurl]

17. babylonsister.....

I looked at it with much fear, not sure whether it would be for or against *. I am glad I ending up looking at it. My day was rushed and had not been much fun until then, but all you need is one thing to turn your day around and make everything better from there on out.

[Ilsa]

37. Hey! That's "Imperial Blivet" to you, Babylonsister! Great choice

of words. That may have to become my favorite.

[Ilsa]

38. Hey! That's "Imperial Blivet" to you, Babylonsister! Great choice

of words. That may have to become my favorite.

[windy252]

6. LOL

I had my aunt send me a picture of * for my birthday that said, in jest "From your favorite commander-in-cheif."

[Catherine Vincent]

8. Ohh, yeah, that's a good one!

LOL!

[KyuzoGator]

9. I recently gave a thank you card with Bush doing the 3-finger "W" salute,

Front: "I've got just three words for you..."

Inside: "Thank You!"

[demgurl]

20. God, I really love that.

Where did you find it? My son's teacher is a liberal and she would get a kick out of a card like that.

[Hissyspit]

10. Shield your eyes for this one...!

Unfortunately, I don't know what it says on the inside. It was drawn by some guy who works on Archie comics.

[electron_blue]

13. Well, now you know you gotta find out what's on the inside....

[Hissyspit]

32. See my post #31. n/t

[demgurl]

24. Hissy, how can you find out the outside and not the inside?

It is now your duty to let us know what the inside says!

[Hissyspit]

31. There may not be an inside. It was part of the artist's portfolio on his

website, showing off examples of his comic art work. It may never have been printed up as a birthday card by a publisher, and even if it had been, I don't know how one could locate it without going through every greeting card publisher's inventory.

[demgurl]

33. Awww, I was only teasing you. Hope you didn't take me seriously.

Perhaps you should do your own thread and ask people to provide the inside words. That might be fun - almost like a caption this sort of thing.

[CrazyOrangeCat]

15. Excellent strategery for a b'card!

(It's hard work, tho . . .)

[Richard Steele]

16. In a world where B*sh is in power, growing old is not a 'problem'.

Count yerself lucky if it is even an OPTION!

[demgurl]

25. Sadly, you are right. I wish we lived in a different time. eom

[mdmc]

36. nice sig!

:kick:

[FuzzyDicePHL]

18. I got two, a bday and a thank-you

I recycled the bday one already, but it was a pic of ** on the front, saying, "Getting older? Why not just lie about your age?" and on the inside it said, "It worked for me and WMD!"

This one I saved tho:


Inside it simply says, "Thank you."

[demgurl]

26. I wonder if they have any of these online as e-cards.

If they do them in paper then you have to think they do them electronically. I like the three words birthday card. A belated happy birthday to you.

[Extend a Hand]

19. My husband got that one for me on my Birthday

I was :rofl:

[justgamma]

22. I saw one in Targets

I can't remember the cover, but the inside said he was suffering from Iraqtile Dysfunction.

[demgurl]

27. Well I guess I will have to visit Target on Monday.

I will stock up.

[mom cat]

23. LOL. That was good.

[bigwillq]

29. That's great!

:rofl:

[DemGirl7]

30. My sister over the last couple of years have gotten me * B-day cards

I can't remember what they said exactly, but I do remember they both poked fun at the fact that * is dumb, because she knows I like to make fun of *.

[mdmc]

34. my mom once got me a halloween card

the front had no words, just ronnie ray-gun at his desk in the oval office, playing with a toy tank and jet.



The inside read, "This was the scariest card I could find."

[vademocrat]

39. My dad sent that to me a while ago -

Almost 2 years ago - he lives in the Washington, DC suburbs so usually has a great selection of political type cards.

Glad to see it's making it's way into grocery stores!

[OnionPatch]

40. Hilarious...it's the card I gave my husband last month

and the most amazing thing about it was that it was right in the front display of the cards at the Walgreen's down the road in Beaumont, which is a very fundie-conservative town! There were several others as well with pictures of him and jokes that mostly made fun of how incompetent he was. Kudos to whoever got those on the shelves!
