Beware of a Pumpkin PowerPoint slideshow hijacked by a Bush butkisser
I just received it and the first one was of GWBush. That is fine and all but they have the W'04 logo at the bottom. The problem is the next one shows a "Lurch" pumpkin but the idiot is passing it off as a Kerry pumpkin. I visited the website and the owner confesses that someone hijacked his pumpkins and put it on a slideshow. He says doesn't mind because it brings more folks over to his website. I did let him know what was happening but I am sure he doesn't care. Here are the pics from the slideshow that I am talking about:





I take it there is no way to put a stop to this being that the website owner doesn't give a damn. Maybe someone can install a pumpkin with the likeness of a chimp (Bush) in the slideshow? Any takers?

1. It's emblematic of them; fighting old wars
How pathetic that they have to try to rile their base with an election they have already stolen. Far better to treat them in this fashion:



Or perhaps some clever individual can come up with a 'punkin' that looks a bit like this:


It sure as hell would be a more accurate representation...

2. Two thoughts. A: this isn't worth bothering with.
And B: That pumpkin carver INTENDED to mock Kerry.

He actually captured him pretty well as a caricature,
whereas the Blivet pumpkin looks so manly and thoughtful
that there's hardly a resemblance to *.

Subliminal, perhaps...but NOT accidental.

3. Hmm..You think the carver intended to mock Kerry?
And who knows, maybe he IS in cahoots with the person that hijacked his pumpkins for the slideshow. You're right, it may not be worth bothering with but the owner does sell "how to carve pumpkins" dvds.

5. I think it's a strong possibility.
The guy is obviously very skilled,
and the Kerry pumpkin is definitely
a much better likeness.

If he wanted a HALLOWEEN pumpkin,
why didn't he use a REAL photo of the Blivet,
like this:

4. I wonder if Bush's eyes glow at night.
That'd actually be alot creepier than the Frankenstein cartoon.

7. You're right, that looks more like Frankenstein than Lurch.
Imo, Brit Hume looks like Lurch.
