What will be this year's RNC "purple heart band-aid"?
Will the republican delegate morans paint half their faces black while laughing and yucking it up on the convention floor?

Enquiring minds want to know..

1. Something racist, no doubt.
God only knows what KKKarl will dream up. And I still think that "woman" was him in drag.

7. I always wondered how she lost her upper lip.
I've seen dogs snarl like that but never people.

16. That's my guess, but they won't be as effective
seeing as how McCain made a fool of himself on this issue and if they do this it'll reopen the wound.

Blackface and minstral shows wouldn't surprise me in the least
Maybe shirts and buttons making the monkey/Obama link.

21. I want to give the GOP a taste of their own medicine, but that would get ugly
Specifically, I'm thinking of aluminum bracelets with McCain's name with one of:

* His being MIA on many Senate votes
* His endorsement of torture
* His support for a quagmire of a war

Or something along those lines.

6. I don't know, but I'm still pissed at the MSM for letting this slide by
After repeating the Kerry swiftboat attacks for week after week, they looked the other way from the GOP convention when this band-aid trick was smearing every service member who ever earned the purple heart.

17. I'm with you. Rally monkeys like you can buy at
a ballpark, wearing little shirts with a big O across the front with a red line through it. And all the corporate media whores will be congratulating them on coming up with something so ingenious and "all American."

12. Depends
"Depends on what?" you might ask.

no no, I mean Depends. Depends undergarments. Maybe they could wear them on their heads to show support for his age and his low mental functioning.

20. I'll tell you what it's going to be if the VP is Biden
(and I'm going to preface this by saying I like Biden, and he would make a fine VP)

Signs that look just like our official logo only saying

Osama/Binladen

Siereis... I can see it coming.

22. Oh geez. You're right. They would sink to that.
Rove is probably frothing at the mouth for a Biden pick just for that slogan
