The New 2008 GOP Convention logo
2008 Republican National Convention Unveils Official Logo
Wednesday, October 03, 2007

Committee on Arrangements Chairman: Unique Emblem 'Will Be Seen Around The World' :evilgrin:

(Saint Paul, Minn.) - Party officials and convention organizers today unveiled the official logo for the 2008 Republican National Convention. The circular design features the silhouette of a triumphant elephant, a Party symbol dating back to 1874, along with the names of the host cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul.

"Choosing our logo is another important milestone in planning the 2008 Republican National Convention," said convention President and Chief Executive Officer Maria Cino. "This design highlights the spirit of the Republican Party and it will adorn everything from the Xcel Energy Center to t-shirts and other souvenirs."

"By the time our convention is complete, this emblem - much like our Republican nominee and future President of the United States - will have been seen by millions around the world," RNC Co-Chairman and Convention Chairman Jo Ann Davidson said.

1. The only time an elephant stands on his back legs is when...
Edited on Thu Oct-04-07 10:04 PM by George Oilwellian
he's having sex. Combine that with the fact that the GOP convention will be held approximately 7 miles from the bathroom Craig was busted in, and you have a wonderfully spontaneous belly laugh. :D

On edit: I love your update. Pissing on the Arlington graves is perfect.

3. This is one, really dumb elephant.
He stands to pee. :D

But as you say, the infamous airport bathroom is not far away. ;)

10. The RNC is going to be really fun to watch next year..
They might even go so far as to keep it "low key". It'll be like a cheesy TV infomercial selling a pile of actual dog crap. - But wait, there's MORE!

Jon Stewart, et al are going to have reams of raw footage to work with.

15. Refucklicans should be embarrassed.
But since they, in general, have no conscience, the only way to get to them is SHAME them for their constant, unabashed hypocrisy.

The GOP's next logo should be the classic elephant taking a shit on the constitution.

8. He looks like he's been run over by a bus.
Not only does he have a wide stance, but he looks like he has an uncircumcised trunk. (or whatever that is.)
