Has anyone tried Star and Stripes ice cream?  Do your purchase habits reflect your politics?

OK, first off i am a conservative.  now that that is out of the way i have never heard of stars and stripes ice cream.  i enjoy Ben and Jerry's ice cream cause it is delicious.  As far as my political preferences guiding my purchases let me say this first and foremost i am an American.  I would like to say that i am an independent voter, but given the choices i have had to vote for since i have been of voting age i have voted republican.  i did not care for bill Clinton or algore. and i could not in good consince vote for jonh kerry.  if the dems would put ppl up like jfk and truman they might get votes from me.  I can not vote for ultra liberals, i feel that they are the ones undermining our american way.  in ww2 liberals and conservatives joined together to fight the common enemy. there are too many of the love cildren of the sixties polluting the american spirit and corrupting the american way of life.

I wish I had been the guy who thought of these magnetic stickers that all the right-wing types are putting on their SUVs. What a genius!.\n\n\nBut how do they "support the troops" exactly? Does any of the money from their sale go to any military support organization? Unless you buy them from the VFW, probably not.\n\n\nWhere were these "support the troops" people when Bush and the Rupublicans in Congress were voting to cut "Imminent danger" pay from $225 per month to $150 per month and family separation allowance–which goes to help military families pay rent, child care or other expenses while soldiers are away–from $250 to $150 a month.\n\n\nI'm a big fan of capitalism, so I certainly don't begrudge anyone making a buck off the herd mentality of the American people. But I'm certainly not going to contribute my own money toward this type of display.

I saw a massive SUV the other day. It was a GMC Denali with huge 'FOR SALE' signs on the sides and back. I just stood there and started laughing. The guy saw me and ducked his head. I could tell he felt very, very foolish.\n\nLive as you preach. I do. I drive an economical car. I conserve all I can. We eat nothing but organic food and avoid fast food and food that is packaged with a mile of plastic. I think we're doing our part... now it's up to the other 264,999,997 Americans, and one guy with a huge gas-guzzling tank.

Excuse me Bradship, I think the Mothership wants you back.  Maybe it's past your bedtime you window licking jerk!\n\nI think pansy flowers would be a better sign for your political party.\nNo, I take that back...a dog licking it's A$$.\n\n\nIt's kindergarden when you have more fun fucking with people.  I guess that didn't come to mind when you posed the question huh?  How long did it take you to get out of there anyway?  Or, are you still there?  Funny, you want to talk about politics and all.  Here you sit in front of your computer at 4:36 am, with NOTHING better to do than to put down Republicans?  That takes a lot of \nB-R-A-I-N power.  Bravo!  Gold star!

Yes, most certainly. If you can't see this, you're far to the right, you will eventually have to support fascism.\n\nThe answer is for people to demand higher quality, shop at Mom & Pops, and make it time consuming/expensive for Corporate America to do the things it's been doing lately. I believe customers can have more of an effect than employees of corporate America.

Good! Especially if you like pork or rotten fish.\n\nIf you live in the D.C. area and want to find out, visit "Norwegian Christmas" at Union Station.

I had to do one awhile ago.  I did mine on the political cartoons and opinions during World War 2.  You can try it if you want.  It's kind of simple.  Dr. Seuss was a "huge" political cartoonist.  You can talk about opiniions about events in the cartoons and how they were impacts at the time.

I'm in.  I will bring my famous apple jello and a hearty appetite for the Plastic Inevitable, a Warhol invention.  Anyway, this is the most reasonable question I have seen asked in this forum and find it mighty neighborly of you.  We can bash democrats and republicans all the while.

I love it.  I buy stuff from Unemployed Democrats and I think that it is hilarious.  I would love your website if you have one!  I had a fundraiser and bought a pinata with his face on it and made a great deal of money!!  The Bible warns that we (not me) will be fooled by people like Bush.  Look at Jim Jones and Koresh.  They were small scale and had much fewer followers but the fanaticism is exactly the same.  There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.  Good luck in your business I hope you make a pile of money.

H-I-B Brilliant man! These simple questions for simpletons, may be too much for them to absorb all at once. It's real hard to decide if it was once, or maybe twice. That is what BI-LESBIANS say about not being a Lesbian. I was BI curious, or maybe SEMI-BI-LESBIAN. So how many HOMOSEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS concluded that you are a HOMOSEXUAL? My example of NEO_CONSERVATIVE dialog, HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! The crying "RIGHT" can't stand up for themselves, and now have to "CRY" to the left for support. BOOO-FUUUUKIN_HOO. My man here is completely right about the semis-ism, so stand up and take your knocks, it's your turn in the barrel. Vote out the TYRANTS in NOVEMBER, free America!

I'm teaching a class like this right now and I get sick of listening to political speeches, I'd like to see you argue that chocolate chip cookies are better than oatmeal rasin.  I heard a pretty good speech last year about why Seinfeld is the best sitcom ever - that was pretty interesting.  Have fun with it though, you don't have to pick something super heavy to persuade people of it, you just have to be professional.

Actually, I was seeing smear ads against Busby (Democrat), put out by the Republican National Committee, about 2 weeks before the Dems started smearing Bilbray. But it doesn't matter who slings mud first in any given campaign, since most devolve to that anyway.\n\nPolitics is about perception, not reality. The ads are literally true about the facts (required to avoid defamation) but massively inaccurate in terms of the assumptions they induce.\n\nFor example, look at the smear against Busby (I picked that one just because I am more familiar with it, not because I support the Democrats).\n\nThe ad says "she opposes campaign contributions by government contractors" but "has taken thousands of dollars from employees of government contractors". The RNC wants people to see this as a contradiction. But it's not.\n\nThere's a huge difference between taking $200K in contributions from Halliburton, and taking $2K (the federal limit) from some janitor or copy clerk who happens to work for Halliburton. Being opposed to the first does make you a hypocrite for accepting the second. \n\nJust an example, but you get the point. People are being misled, by all of the major political parties, and being fed half-truths designed to provoke an emotional response. It's really sad that our political process has devolved to the point where only 42% of the population actually votes, and most of that number is either made up of people voting based on political party affiliation (rather than actually voting for the individuals) or based on emotional manipulation rather than facts.

Honestly when it comes to this whole debate about immigration I'm a bit torn.  \n\nHere are some of my thoughts (whether they make sense or not is another story):\n\nToday I was able to order lunch at McDonalds today and they got my order right thanks to the illegal immigrants not being at work because of the boycott.\n\nOur nation was built by many great people, most of whom were immigrants. But the immigrants who came here previously worked hard to learn the language and make a better life for their families.\n\nToo many immigrants don't understand why they are really boycotting anyway.  Seeing someone draping themselves with a Mexican flag doesn't scream "I want to be an American and make a better life for my family" it says more that they want to bring everything that is Mexico with them even though they are running from it by coming here in the first place.\n\nAmerican students are held back to make sure their immigrant counterparts are able to get up to speed which proves difficult because of language and cultural barriers.\n\nSome immigrants like one of my neighbors do work their tails off to learn english, contribute to the community and help their neighbors out when in need.  The neighbor I am speaking of mows the elderly woman across the street's lawn and shovels her walk during the winter.  His wife will often cook dinners for another neighbor who is pregnant and whose husband is in Iraq.\n\nTo answer your question would I boycott a business that closes to support the Hispanic community?  I don't know.  It would probably depend on what I knew about the business and their motives for doing so.  It's a tough call, at least for me.
