You can buy this KKK cutie with your credit card-but just try and donate to wikileaks....

[kpete]

Mastercard and Visa are joining Paypal and not transferring funds to Wikileaks. But if you want to move some money to the Ku Klux Klan, Mastercard and Visa are willing to be of service.

You can buy that ceramic cutie at the KKK website and charge it on your credit card! It's $24.95 and add $10 if you want the lighted eyes option.

Hard to know where to start deconstructing this mess.

1. 1) That doll is hilarious (in its hideousness) 2) Excellent point. (nt)

[brewens]

2. No need. Just wait till it snows and make your own. n/t

[MindandSoul]

3. This is outrageous! Sick!

And, Assange is being considered (by some) as a terrorist for leaking the TRUTH straight "from the mouth of the powerful," but Beck, Hannity and Limbaugh are being praised for spewing misleading information, propaganda and complete lies!

Go figure!

[fascisthunter]

4. There ya go... any questions? Hmmmm?

there's your double standard.

5. Cute little fellow - even gives a Nazi salute!

Do they have plush versions? My Schnoodle needs a new chew-toy...:D

[tuckessee]

6. That salute pre-dates National Socilaism by several years.

I've seen it on ceramic Klan figures dating from the early Second Klan era (1915). I sold a set years ago in a mail/phone auction run by some really nice Progressives out of Pennsylvania - American Social History and Social Movements.

12. Actually, it was used a lot in this country...

before WWII...

[silver10]

7. Does it come in paper sets so I can wipe my ass with them?

It was an easy decision for the corporations to make - pander to the stupid or support the 1st amendment - what did you think they would pick?

[laughingliberal]

8. K & R nt

[Indi Guy]

9. Does this come in a Chia Pet??? n/t

[lunatica]

10. Yeah, well the KKK has a long traditional American history dating over 100 years!

:sarcasm:

[tpsbmam]

11. K&R for a good point. nt

[intheflow]

13. That would look so festive on my holiday mantle!

Totally worth the extra $10 for holy light shining out of his eyes like the Ghost of KKKristmas Past and Present!

:puke:

14. WikiLeaks cables: US 'lobbied Russia on behalf of Visa and MasterCard'

[Canuckistanian]

15. Is it made in America?

I would NEVER buy a KKK figurine from China.
