It seems the GOP-Teabaggers have turned to Cafe Press for their talking points.

"How's that Hopey-Changey thing workin' out for ya?" and "Miss me yet?" are staples on CP. There are hundreds of them, from hundreds of different posters. Not just recently, since the Teabag convention, or the Bush billboard...I mean, they've been there for months. These are old, recycles bumper stickers which the teabaggers and GOPpers somehow think are funny, original and valid. We criticized those douchebags for years about their bumper-sticker talking-point mentality, now what do they do? Respond with bumper stickers dressed up as actual speeches.

Why am I not stunned that their idiot following falls for it?

1. Eh, who cares. The ones who buy that stuff will be putting their vast intellect on display.

Free speech and all. Just be glad you aren't them.

We're happy Pedro Picasso isn't one of us, too.

:whatever:

They don't know the difference between a "talking point", which is a tool of the left used to kept their phony dishonesty ideology on its warped track, and a "slogan", which is a catch-phrase meant to be repeated by as many people as possible as a way to measure its success.

I think Pedro Picasso's just jealous because the merchandise Cafe Press puts out sells, while Pedro Picasso's stuff, along some of the same lines, gathers dust on the shelves.

There's not much of a market any more, for anti-George Bush stuff.

That's probably why Pedro Picasso had to take that outside job last year.

Once I read a biography of Dan Quayle, surely one of the most-maligned American politicians of the latter half of the twentieth century; the book was written when Quayle was still vice-president, 1989-1993.

There were a couple of chapters about a hippie couple in Connecticut who were then making a fortune selling anti-Quayle (bumper stickers, t-shirts, "art") stuff to the ignorant; they also had a publication, The Quayle Quarterly.

One wonders what happened to them after the 1992 elections, as I don't imagine there's been much of a market for anti-Dan Quayle stuff since then.

Some people don't stay alert to changes in the market demand for things.

Well WTH do you know...I was behind that bumpersticker stuck together old VOLVO in the school line yesterday. If the driver doesn't soon get some new OBAMA/BIDEN stickers, the left rear fender is going to fall off.

Post by: JohnnyReb on February 11, 2010, 09:01:10 AM: There you have more proof that liberal bias in the news media has been around for a long time and continues to this day. All they could get out of a republican VP was "The Qualye Quarterly"...and here we now have a democrat VP that you could get "The Biden Dailey" out of and not a word.

I've always appreciated the "Regime Change '04" and "End~~less~~ (this) war!"

As soon as Pedro answers this question about himself, and should he be so lucky as to guess the correct answer, then he'll at least have heard why he and his ilk are the idiots and why those he falsely believes are the idiots are really his superiors.

Poor Pedro.
