They aren't even bothering to pretend anymore, are they?
 Not even trying to hide their socialist plan.

It's disgusting, but in a lot of ways it's not a lot different from the cult of personality that sprang up around Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. A bit more over the top, though...

Did you see the "add your own text" t-shirt? :lol:

Man, if this didn't give money to those I vehemently oppose, I'd get that one.

Any thoughts about the text?

Yup, click on any of the products to get to their individual page then look at the bottom of the page, there's an e-mail address there.  I'm looking at the coffee mug.  The address is president@victorystore.com.

Now, put www.victorystore.com in your browser...

Also the whois info for both domains indicates the same owner:

   Victory Enterprises, Inc.
   324 S Fairmounts St     
   DAVENPORT, Iowa 52802   
   United States           

And

If you click on any product it goes to a yahoo storefront which also indicates that victorystore is the parent.

I went looking for a hammer and sickle, but didn't find any.  Maybe later it will be on their stuff.

Word.

If there were a comparable conservative to Obama, we'd all be propping him up.

And that, my friend is the heart of the matter.  O'bama's ideas, his philosopy, his motives ....just suck.

What I mean is:

Imagine a young, handsome black man.

Imagine him being a charismatic Republican.

Imagine him being associated with the Constitution Party instead of the Socialist, and with the Kochtopus foundations instead of Joyce.

Imagine being 'letting slip' remarks about wanting to abolish the graduated income tax instead of 'spreading the wealth around'.

See where I am going with this?

Yes I do.

Give me that candidate, I'll give him my support. 

We don't have one, so I will stand back and watch the sophmores make fun of the socialist's big ears.

Except he will be smeared as an "Uncle Tom" by Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. The leftist media will rip him apart, and most blacks would never vote for him "because he's not black" (translation: he's not a Democrat). Happens to every black candidate down here who runs on the Republican ticket.

Think of the smearing they do to Palin...

I understand what you are saying, and agree to some extent. One key difference,is, our guys gaffe's would show him to be a supporter of the Constitution he would swear to uphold, whereas every time he opens his mouth, Obama talks about destroying it(or so it seems sometimes).

I have heard of Dr. Keyes back when he was runnning against Sen. Obama.

Of course, the problem is that he became a bit... cranky with the years. I watched him during the Values Voter Debate, it wasn't Sparta.

Yes. OF COURSE the Dems would hate him. The Republicans would love it if such a guy appeared.
