Presidential Farting Doll -- Hail To The Cheese
A Los Angeles entrepreneur is hoping to raise a political stink with a farting doll modeled on President George W. Bush. Richard Halpern is just finishing the final touches on "Pull My Finger President," a plush doll that emits noxious gas sounds and sayings whenever its finger is pulled. I know we're the land of the free and all jazz, but do we ever draw the line on acceptable bashing of people in power? Or am I just getting soft in my old age? I like my political bashing in the form some type of media or in print. I'll pass on the farting doll. [via: fark]
"Please join United For Peace And Justice {the email I recently received said} as we come together with moveon.org, media alliance, codepink and global exchange to say no to the bush administration's push to give free reign to the corporate media. It will also be sent to your congress members and senators. We need thousands of people to sign this petition; this is our chance to speak out against media that puts corporate profit ahead of journalism and truth-telling!" Bottom line is the radio will be controlled by a monopoly. Isn't that enough to make you take a look into this? Thanks to Skippy who's been diligently trying to round up everyone to sign it.

Yeah, it's a green thing today.
