If you REALLY love someone, you'll tell them they smell bad.
Steve had body odor, but he didn't realize it. He'd lost out on several jobs because of his embarrassing body odor, people were secretly avoiding him, and being polite, they never bothered to tell him directly.

Until one day Steve got a new girlfriend who fell in love with him at first sight, and gently told him that he needed to try some deodorant. It worked! Steve is no longer affected negatively and is a happier person for it. Steve and his new girlfriend were married and had many fine fresh smelling kids.

The moral of this story is, if you love America, you'll tell it that it stinks to high heaven and needs to take care of that immediately, but say it in a nice way, protest, march, carry signs, talk to neighbors, and tell them, something really stinks around here, and it ain't you and me.

The head republix always bitch and moan about war protesters, or anyone who criticizes the ape, but this is exactly what the nation needs, a little tough love. If you love America, complain about it's faults and warts and fix them, raise hell, take it to the streets, screw those who say that dissent is unpatriotic, screw them all.

Somethings rotten in DC, and we need a HUMONGOUS can of deodorant.

2. Not deoderant
Soap, water, a really big scrub brush, and lots of sunlight is what is needed to get the stink out.

And people ought to quit yapping about minor issues like the size of someone's house. Worry instead about how much effort they'll put into cleaning up the mess.

4. Nah, just splash some aftershave in the armpits and wherever needed
the alcohol kills odor-causing bacteria,
and the perfumes cover up anything else.

6. Aerosol bullshit, with a hint of strawberry.
And don't forget HappyPaint, the jolly coating that goes over all the horror and blood.

7. We have had too many odor coverups in the past.

Masking a problem is not the answer; it just hides the smell and doesn't cure the cause. If a mouse died in your car would you just buy a bunch of pine-scented hanging thingmies, or would you remove the decaying body and clean the affected area?

5. Publicans use the Joseph Goebbels Doctrine
Americans need to read or just watch on the History Channel (if they've forgotten or never learned how to read) about the great Nazi propaganda master for Hitler. These are the EXACT tactics he used to get all those fine, upstanding, righteous German's to do his dirty deeds.
