7. That's even better than purple band-aids.
To most of us they come off like pre-teen girls trying to be cool, but to other repubs it shows how thoughtful thy are.

Stupid fuckers.

13. have you seen that commercial ... a phone service or something ... with ..
that incredibly irritating song ... Oooooh, ooooooh ... oooh. oooh. oooh. Fucking mindlesswordless singing while the on-swcreen action involves people doing incredibly stupid things. Trying to ski off their snow-covered roof, X-TREME snowmobile jumping, etc. That song has become the Stupid Anthem to me.

Every time I see someone doing something stupid, in my mind, I hear, "Oooooh, ooooooh ... oooh. oooh. oooh."

-snicker-

That is what I'll be hearing when I see their purple fingers.

54. Such symbolism is characteristic of fascism.
Of course, we have to come up with a different name for it other than "fascism" because "fascism" is too emotionally-provoking.

How's about "manipulative predatory positioning"? *LOL*

15. Quick! Call Reid's office with your idea. It's brilliant!
Edited on Wed Feb-02-05 12:49 PM by Liberty Belle
(202) 224-3542

Call Pelosi, too: (202) 225-4965

Plus any other Dems who might go along with the "red ink" visual cue. The mass media couldn't ignore this--all their viewers would want to know why so many DEMS have red fingers!

9. That is proof that the Repubs work for the President--not their
constituents nor the country. They all are traitors to America. And they want to place more of them in the Cabinet. God help us!

30. check out this link
http://www.gopbloggers.org/bluefingers.html :puke:


From Chris Allbritton:

The insurgency is not over. The Sunnis and middle-class former Ba'athists are still resentful and suspicious. An old friend of mine who was a Ba'athist, but mainly so he could get a job, is bitter and morose, feeling that now there are two occupations. “One from the Americans and one from the Iranians,” he said. The Sunnis are terrified of their old enemy, and List 169, the Sistani-blessed list, does have a number of people on it with serious ties to Iran. The country is still a mess, with deteriorating services like water and electricity. This is not to say they can't be overcome, but this is not a time to declare victory.

Be sure and mention all this to the war-boosters, who are, dorkily, coating their fingers with blue ink as a sign of solidarity “with the Iraqi people.” Hm. I don't remember them doing that for Afghanistan... Why don't they just 'fess up and say they're giving the finger to us doubters? This is not solidarity; it's a taunt along the lines of, “We were right, nyah nyah!” instead of a celebration of democracy. Make no mistake: Sunday was not a validation of Bush's policies. Most Arab states would like to have democracy, yes, but not at the barrel of a gun, which is how it came here. If the choice is being invaded, occupied and force-fed controversial elections that might lead to civil war versus working at democratic reforms at their own pace and in their own way, I suspect most Arabs would choose the latter. And who could blame them? Iraq is not an example to emulate.

31. I hope one of the Dems speaking after the SOTA point out that
the reason the Iraqis were so proud of their purple fingers is that Sistani inspired the demonstrations that forced Bush to have elections instead of the Chalabi dictatorship. The were giving the finger to Bush!

35. Right up there with the "Purple Heart" band-aids at the RNC
These people are shameless.

If the election was for the Iraqi people, how come the "I Voted" tags read, well, "I voted"? (I can't speak or read their language, so I'm pretty sure it's not English.)

Is absolutely everything now a photo-op, ie. polticized?

39. No, count me in as totally disgusted as well.
I can just hear Tweety, Brian Williams, et al.

They'll probably all have a "Bushasm" over the purple fingers tonight.

The Democrats should just get up and walk out of the SOTU en masse tonight.
