Funny? Funny is a Funny Word For It

The medical industry is a joke... but jokes are supposed to be funny, and this joke is not funny. The medical industry is more like a cruel prank being played on those gullible enough to buy into it.

In reality, the medical industry's version of healthcare is actually sick-care because it is designed to treat and perpetuate sickness, from prenatal to the grave, and now that ObamaCare has become a reality, everyone will be forced to be part of a new oxymoronically labeled "health plan".

So much for choice. We'll all be forced to purchase a product that we may not even want. I would prefer to keep my distance from medical doctors whose treatments cause mutilation, side effects, disease and death. Unfortunately, real healthcare providers, like Naturopaths, seem to be a threat to the AMA, who would prefer to corner the market on your healthcare dollars. In combination with governmental mandates, the AMA can now move ahead with their agenda, seizing control of the care industry.

Former United States Secretary of Agriculture, Ezra Taft Benson, was privy to a heinous plan to overthrow the freedom of the entire population, and warned* of
"increasing... control over America and the entire world." What better way to take away individual freedom than by making everyone sick? Why not make them dependent on a corrupt and poisonous industry that dictates all healthcare needs... from prenatal to the grave, collecting every dollar along the way?... The healthcare deception is only one facet of the plan to overthrow our freedoms, and unfortunately, it is probably too late to stop it. The Gadianton caravan rolls on. Smile and wave.

Have a nice tyranny!

* October 1988, talk titled, I Testify. Speaking in the capacity as President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, this was Ezra Taft Benson's last General Conference address, and he wanted to be sure to raise the voice of warning. Most LDS thought Benson was just a crazy old man. Too bad they didn't pay attention to his warnings. Although most LDS have bought into the healthcare scheme hook, line and sinker, Benson himself preferred to travel to Las Vegas, Nevada to receive care from Naturopathic Physicians.

Tickle Party Scares Up Support for Obama's Healthcare Plan

Congressman Eric Massa, one of the few Democrats against President Obama's Health Care Plan, recently learned the hard way that Democrats who don't support the President's agenda can expect retaliation resulting in political destruction.

The scare tactic seems to be working. Two congressmen have learned from Massa's example and signed on giving their support of the President's Plan today. One was a big surprise and disappointment to me and all freedom-loving Americans. Dennis Kucinich, has been the only respectable Democratic politician in the United States Congress for many years, and the fact that he has sold out by supporting this bill makes me wonder what damaging information the administration has on him.

Somehow, the Tickle Party seems to be the perfect nick-name for the Democrat Party... an institution known for tickling the ears of the gullible and naive with empty promises of convincingly manipulative demagoguery and policies that actually keep the poor powerless... right where they want them.

Here comes the new Health $Care Plan... like it or not.*

Vote Democrat! Keep $lavery
$afe and Legal

*Most Americans are actually against Obama's Health Care Plan but you'd never know it by listening to the President who insists that we want it.

The Maverick is Back

Recently, American Maverick and former Republican Party Presidential Candidate, Senator John McCain, proudly introduced The Dietary Supplement Safety Act (DSSA), a piece if legislation designed to repeal key sections of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) that protect availability of so-called nutritional supplements.


McCain's bill will put the distribution of vitamins, minerals and all other nutritional supplementation in the hands of medical doctors where it belongs. Who better to administer nutritional supplements than doctors who are required to take up to one full credit hour of nutrition during their college education?


Nutritional supplements will become classified as drugs, therefore, McCain's bill may also help to rid the nation of holistic and chiropractic quackery by preventing non-medical professionals from providing supplements or making nutritional recommendations to their patients who will be forced to see a real doctor for any nutritional advice.


Due to the high costs associated with testing and compliance, McCain's bill, if passed into law, will eliminate small nutritional companies. This will, in turn, necessitate production of vitamins by the larger and more established pharmaceutical companies, increasing profits for corporate heads and investors alike. It looks like a good time to invest big in Big Pharma.


McCain's bill will also act as a great distraction to lots of people who will get caught up in trying to protect their supplements, and dissuade them from becoming involved in other social and political issues.


Keep up the good work Senator McCain! You're a REAL maverick, and TRUE American.

Patriot Act Re-authorization Quietly Sneaking Through

President Obama is quietly working with Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, to rush the re-authorization of the Patriot Act while the population isn't paying attention.

While Americans are being distracted by surges, signs of recovery and the Olympics, behind the curtain, plans are being made to sneak the Patriot Act re-authorization through the Senate as soon as they are back in session.

The oxymoronically named Patriot Act will be packaged as a Jobs Bill, and be sold to the public as part of a massive multi-billion dollar special interest giveaway that will further destabilize the American economy, while continuing to tread on the civil rights of Americans under a hyperbolic guise of security.


Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both. Benjamin Franklin

HOPE is Over - One Year Later - More War

The Dream is Over

I hate to say that I told you so... actually I love to say I told you so, even though being right all the time is a bit burdensome.

Well, here we are a year later, and all that HOPE we heard so much about during the last presidential campain is now just another faded slogan on last year's Volvo Wagon.

We did it

Lots of the folks who voted for Obama expecting change, are expressing their loss of hope for the administration. Strangely, there are those superstitous few among us who still choose to believe in fairy tales. I always feel sorry for those hoodwinked masses who continue to display their misguided support for Obama on t-shirts and cars. Aren't they embarrassed? Don't they realize what fools they are? How do they function in the real world? They behave as though all is well and like Ostriches, have firmly buried their heads in the blissful sands of ignorance.

How many more bailouts?
How many more wars?
How many more troops?
How many more casualties?


GOT HOPE?
NOPE!
HAVE A NICE WAR...
or two or three or more...

WTF? or Peace in Our DaZe

Remember that Sesame Street song that made a fun game out of finding the thing that is different from the other three things? It went like this:

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

Did you guess which thing was not like the others?
Did you guess which thing just doesn't belong?
If you guessed this one is not like the others,
Then you're absolutely...right!

Today, President Barack Obama was awarded the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize. A baffling decision considering that he recently deployed twenty-one thousand US troops to FIGHT in the WAR in Afghanistan, and intends to deploy many more thousands of additional soldiers in the near future.

What is wrong with this picture?

Shouldn't the Nobel Peace Prize be given to someone who actually pursues PEACE in our world, rather than someone
who has escalated the WARS in Iraq and Afghanistan, and expanded the WAR on the American people by broadening the powers of the Patriot Act?

Sorry, but a president who deploys troops to kill people with weapons of WAR is not an advocate for PEACE... unless we're living in some kind of Orwellian prison-culture where newspeak redefines terms... like WAR and PEACE.

Rudy Awakening or Giuliani's Island


Person of the Year 2001
President Elect 2008
Not!

Earlier this week, I retired my Rudy Giuliani-Countdown to Victory 2008 calendar that has been hanging on the wall way too long.

No! I didn't support Rudy for president, and certainly wouldn't have voted for him had he received the Republican nomination. I bought the calendar for 25 cents at a second hand store sometime last year. I couldn't resist the ridiculous photos and corny slogans like, "You're in for a Rudy Awakening" - "Rudy Set Go" - "Put Rudy on Duty" and etc. I actually wish I had a calendar for all of the kooky presidential candidates... especially Romney, the flip/floppiest of them all.

Ron Paul was the only candidate out of the whole bunch that told the truth about everything, but Americans wanted a precedent, rather than a president, and set
themselves up for either an African American man, or a woman... the new thing, rather than the right thing.

Ironically, Americans got the same old thing in exchange for their votes for change. The war is being escalated, and big brother is getting bigger.


I wish Americans had done the right thing for a change... for REAL change.

Happy to Pay

Yesterday, thousands of American citizens showed up at rallies across the country to protest over taxation in general, and the misuse of federal funds in particular.

I didn't go to the protest in San Francisco where thousands of angry citizens showed up. I didn't go because I say nay to the nay sayers. Paying taxes is what America is all about.

Without taxes, how would we build the bombs that blow up buildings, and how would we pay to rebuild those buildings that were blown up?

Without taxes, bankers wouldn't be getting those big bonuses they had been expecting, and automobile executives would have to play by the same rules as regular people. We don't want that, now do we?

Yes, I'm happy to stand up for freedom and pay my fair share so that we can continue to bomb and rebuild other parts of the world.

Happy Easter

Six Years Later: How Are We Doing So Far?


Yesterday marked the sixth anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. Unfortunately, it looks like we'll have a military presence there for a long time to come. So much for change.


To me, one of the most socially impacting and unreported aspects of our involvement in Iraq, is the toxic landscape we have created there. Long after America's troops have all left Iraq, traces of depleted uranium will continue to cause severe birth defects* and drastically affect the quality of life there.

Many Americans are completely unaware that our military used uranium tipped munitions throughout Iraq and Afghanistan. You'd have thought that we'd learned our lesson in Yugoslavia where the terrible effects of depleted uranium were observed and documented. Unfortunately, we adopted an "ignore it and it will go away" attitude toward the obvious side effects of the toxic but effective new weapon.

Depleted uranium is not an atomic weapon. The hardened uranium is used in armor piercing weapons. When a depleted uranium tipped shell impacts its target, the uranium vaporizes and becomes airborne. Unconfined microscopic radioactive particles make their way into the lives of civilians and soldiers alike. Radiation doesn't discriminate. American soldiers who have entered immobilized Iraqi tanks to procure war souvenirs, have unknowingly inhaled radioactive particulates, and contaminated their uniforms with the deadly dust. Gulf War Syndrome, a common debilitating disease among Gulf War vets, may be due in part to depleted uranium exposure.** Here in America, buyers of used Iraq, Afghanistan and Gulf War uniforms may become secondhand victims of depleted uranium poisoning as well. Buyer beware!

I would like to point out that I am not necessarily anti war. I'm all for military destruction of anyone and everyone responsible for what occurred on September 11th, 2001, but would prefer to reach that goal without the unnecessary destruction of innocents. That, I cannot support.

* No wonder they hate us:





Is it really worth it?

By the way, if you couldn't tell, the above photographs are human beings. Their deformities are a result of exposure to depleted uranium.



** Other evidence suggests that Gulf War Syndrome may have been caused by the mandatory anthrax vaccinations of US soldiers because many enlistees who never went to the Gulf have also experienced the same symptoms. The common factor is the vaccinations that were administered to all US military personnel. Soldiers who refused to take the controversial anthrax vaccination were court-marshaled. It has been reported that the French Gulf War soldiers, did not receive the anthrax vaccinations, and have not suffered from Gulf War Syndrome.

Have a nice war!

Oh, and Happy Spring too.

17,000 Aditional Soldiers to Afghanistan

I hate to say I told you so, but... I told you so! And you thought you were voting for peace.

Breaking news from Economist.com

Keeping it Real

Inauguration Day

L
ast year I purchased one of those George Bush countdown clocks for my father who has been one of President Bush's biggest critics. In fact, Dad's been looking forward to this day since President Bush took office eight years ago. Today was supposed to be the big day when the clock would terminate with some sort of electronic fanfare, but instead of playing an electronic version of a Sousa classic, the countdown clock anticlimactically stopped two months ago.

It was fun while it lasted though.
Dad's George Bush countdown clock stopped prematurely, but the wars President Bush initiated are still going strong, and now that President Obama has been inaugurated as the Commander and Chief of the Armed Forces, these wars, and the deaths that will result from them, are now his responsibility.

Thousands of American soldiers and countless enemy combatants and civilians have been killed in President Bush's wars.

How many more thousands will pay the ultimate price in President Obama's wars?

Can you say body bags? Have a Nice War!

Prop 8 Opponents Boycott Utah

Too much of the post Prop 8 drama has been emotion driven.

One of the most misdirected attempts of vengeance against Prop 8 supporters, is the call to boycott the State of Utah, headquarters of the LDS Church whose members donated millions of dollars to help pass Prop 8 in California last year.


This boycott situation needs to be viewed in perspective, detached from the kind of emotionalism that can disable rational thinking.


There are lots of folks jumping on the boycott bandwagon, but will a boycott of Utah really hurt the LDS Church?

There are approximately twelve million Mormons worldwide, with only about a million of them living in Utah. Most Mormons don't even live in Utah, and believe it or not, Spanish is the most common language in Mormondom, yet the LDS are almost always stereotyped as short-haired, pasty white males wearing the familiar cultic uniform - white shirt and tie. Utah is simply where the LDS Church headquarters resides, while the majority of Mormons live outside of the Beehive State.

It is a big mistake to assume that Utah is an all-Mormon state. There are many areas in Utah where less than half of the population is practicing Mormonism, and not everyone in Utah is in favor of Proposition 8 either. Many Utahans opposed Prop 8, and financially supported the "No On 8" lobby. Yes, out of state money influencing a California election... ironically the same thing the NO on 8 people are angry about.

It also may come as a surprise that Salt Lake City is home to the oldest established gay bar west of the Mississippi River. Sorry SFO, like Brigham said, SLC is the place. The homosexual community thrives there and has been part of Salt Lake society for more than a century. The tour and service industry in Utah, especially in Salt Lake, is among the best, thanks to the professionalism of talented hard workers, and yes, many of them are gay. A boycott of Utah would likely hurt the tour and service industries most because they are dependent on out of state money.

So, who does the boycott really hurt?

A boycott would end up hurting individuals opposed to Prop 8 and wouldn't significantly effect the Mormon Church, their intended target.

A boycott directed at one twelfth of the Mormon Church's population is primarily symbolic. The church won't even notice. "The caravan rolls on."

A boycott of Utah is misdirected and will hurt some of the homosexuals who live behind the Zion Curtain.

Ski Utah!
or
Have a nice boycott!

UPI Buried Paul


There are a handful of reasons why elections are flawed in the United States.

1 Too many uninformed people vote.
Remember all those stupid people in Florida who accidentally voted for Pat Buchanan back in 1998?* Sure everyone has the right to vote, but apparently, most people are not responsible enough to make good decisions when it comes to slick politicians who promise them the world. Unfortunately, the masses believe their convincing demagoguery, leaving those of us who vote responsibly outnumbered at the polls. Rather than paying attention to what a politician actually stands for, most people are more concerned with:
a- how the candidate looks
b- political labels/state color (gang mentality)
c- who their union supports


2 Unfortunately, vote fraud does exist here in what we like to call the
land of the free. Ironic isn't it? We harp about other countries having fraudulent elections, when right here at home, we allow the same kind of hood-winkery under a red white and blue banner. Patriotique!

3 Media reports were blatantly biased in this election. During the primaries, I was astounded how Ron Paul's news and support were intentionally ignored, even though he was getting more votes than both Rudolf Giuliani and Fred Thompson who received an abundance of media attention. Even after Rudy and Freddy had dropped out, there was still no mention of Paul even though he had been named the winner in the debates, and had come in second place in a number of primaries. When Huckabee dropped out, the media never bothered to mention that Paul was still in the running, and behaved as though McCain had it all wrapped up. Other news was invented to keep Paul out of sight and out of America's mind. The media effectively buried Paul.

4 Americans have a team X vs. team Y mentality, which makes it easy to ignore anyone who isn't in the spotlight. This kind of narrow thinking allows the
A and B sides of the dark side to maintain control, and prevent honest politicians and third parties from receiving attention.
* And then Al Gore wanted to count every ballot (for himself) which had been discarded... "Count them again."

Pull the Wool Over Your Own Eyes


Surprise! Metro Santa Cruz actually published my letter to the editor which was sure to anger most everyone who read it.

From Metro Santa Cruz, November 12-19, 2008 Volume 15, number 29 - page four.

I am so disappointed in my so called anti-war community here in Santa Cruz. Maybe I can blame it on ignorance, (not something Santa Cruzans enjoy being accused of), but I have to wonder how it escaped the attention of so many of my peace-loving neighbors that President-elect, Barack Obama, was a pro-war candidate who has made it clear that he intends to escalate the war in Afghanistan, and perpetuate the war on terror. Nevertheless, peace-loving Santa Cruzans zealously cast their votes for Obama's war-mongering policies anyway. Wow! Where was my community's voice for peace? Maybe people do realize that Obama is pro-war, and assume that war won't be as painful under a Democrat. Isn't that kind of like saying that daddy doesn't hit as hard with his left hand? Another social contradiction is the support of Obama among the GLBT community. Joe Biden made it clear that he and Barack are both against same-sex marriages, yet the gay community ignored this fact, and gave their support to Obama anyway. Personally, I voted for peace and freedom. I'm sorry that my community didn't join with me.

The Whole Country Went To Hell, and All I got Was This T-Shirt



Ron Paul 2008 Dark T-Shirt

Post electronique election blues :-(
I was standing in front of the concave mirror plucking nose hairs when I heard that Obama would be our next president. I was so glad that McCain hadn't won, but the news came with a bit of pain as I plucked an extra thick gray hair from deep within my left nostril. The sensation stimulated my tear duct and saline fluid squirted out of my left eye and ran down my cheek, leaving a shiny wet trail that glistened in the bright bathroom light. Ouch! That hurt.
Historical hysteria

No big surprise in the presidential election except for the fact that it turned out a bit different than I predicted it would back in January. I figured Hillary would secure the Democratic nomination, and she did get the popular vote, but now I can see how she was used in a clever distraction plot that rallied the masses in a pseudo debate that would result in either a woman or African American in the White House. Unprecedented indeed!

During the presidential primaries there actually was a real Maverick of Change ignored by the media machine... A real choice. Unfortunately, the choices presented were focused on race, gender, and religion, whereas t
he choice ignored by the media fought for fiscal responsibility in government, constitutional leadership, and an end to the war.

I must admit that it was fascinating to observe the propaganda machine's ability to completely squelch the candidacy of Congressman Ron Paul, who did amazingly well considering how much he was ignored by the media. I can't place all of the blame of the media's manipulation though. Americans themselves need to take individual responsibility for becoming so complacent, uninformed, and for getting swept up in the
historical hysteria.

Meet the new boss... same as the old boss...
Personally, I am thrilled that an African American has ascended to the office of President of the United States. It is truly wonderful that we have come this far. Unfortunately, Mr. Obama has come into office during one of the greatest crises in our Nation's history and will have a difficult go of it. I pray that he will be successful at bringing this country together, and restoring honor to the White House. I have my doubts, though. He intends on sending more Americans to fight in Afghanistan, and plans to continue the war on terrorism. We simply can't afford these expensive wars right now.
Mother of all concession speeches

John McCain's concession speech was gracious and delivered with humility and genuineness. If his speeches had been as moving during the campaign, the outcome may have been different... but that wasn't the plan was it? Straw men aren't designed to win.

The Evil of Two Lessers

On the eve of this presidential election we should remember that we're not required to vote for either of the two under-qualified candidates. A vote is a terrible thing to waste, and shouldn't be thrown away on same as usual politicians who pretend to be different from their predecessors, by claiming to be mavericks, or agents of change. That's plain silly.

I had considered voting for the Libertarian candidate, Bob Barr, but I think I'll write in Ron Paul instead. He's the only mainstream candidate who told the truth about this economic mess, and even presented his plan, but unfortunately for all of us, the media ignored it. He was also the ONLY major candidate who called for an immediate withdrawal of our combat-engaged troops from around the world, and focus on issues at home.

Mr. Obama, on the other hand, wants to escalate the conflict in Afghanistan, and continue the expensive war on terror which continues to strip citizens of their rights, weigh down the economy, and creates more enemies than friends for the US.

Mr. McCain wants the same thing, even if it keeps us there for a hundred years.

Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right - Left - Right

Let's stop the goose-step toward dictatorship, and vote responsibly.

vOte fOr Obama = vOte fOr mOre WAR

Trick or Treat? A Rhetorical Question


Evidence of Obama support is all around me here on California's Central Coast. It seems that everywhere I go, I see it displayed proudly by a diverse cross-section of the community. Most of my neighbors have Obama yard signs now, and more cars sport Obama bumper stickers than those that don't. It is really quite impressive, too. The thing that is ironic about this situation is the fact that most of these same supporters claim to be anti-war, and even display Obama stickers in close proximity to their anti-war slogans. Sad, but true. The reality of the matter for anti-war advocates, is that a vote for Obama, is an endorsement for escalated war in Afghanistan. Ouch! And no Santa Clause or Easter Bunny either !!! Sorry I had to be the one to tell you.

Happy Halloween

OX - HALLOWEEN Costume Ideas - XO

It's that time of year again. Time to start planning your Halloween costume.

The perfect Halloween costume should be unique and invoke shock and awe. After all, horror is what Halloween is all about. And with all the Sarah Palins and lipsticked pigs running around this Halloween, you'll want to do something unique and memorable.

Here are four costume ideas that will invoke fear everywhere you go this Halloween.

Twins
It's fun for partners to dress up as famous couples, like John and Yoko, Sid and Nancy, Tarzan and Jane... Cute, but SO last Halloween.
For couples who are looking for a unique costume that will impress their friends, this year I recommend going as the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center.

A simple costume to make, with lots of terrifying design variations. One tower can smoke and appear to burn with the aid of a portable smoke device, while the other tower has a small aeroplane attached to a wire that bobs and dances as the party goer moves about. And what could be more fun than twins?

What's Needed:
-Two large boxes, (identical)
-White paint
-Stiff wire (to attach the aeroplane)
-Marker (for detailing windows etc.)
-Toy aeroplane, (or two)
-Plastic people
-String
-Scissors or sharp knife to cut eye holes.

Don't Forget to Vote!
If you are trick-or-treating alone this year, or don't have a partner to dress up with, I recommend my favorite costume... What could be spookier than Uncle Sam carrying a body bag with a body in it? This is definitely a fun costume to wear in pro-war neighborhoods.

For the body bag, I use an ordinary military duffel bag which perfectly accomodates my mannequin's lower torso. Her army boots are allowed to dangle out the end. A nice touch this year is to wear both Obama and McCain pins to remind everyone that both are pro-war candidates, and will be responsible for lots of body bags filled with American GI's. A grim thought, and just perfect for Halloween on an election year.

What's Needed:
-Uncle Sam mask, or makeup. (If you are using makeup, you'll need to find one of those ridiculous Uncle Sam hats)
-Coveralls (I use a radiation suit, but they are difficult to come by)
-Military duffel bag
-Lower torso of a mannequin
-One McCain pin
-One Obama pin
-Army boots


If I Only Had a Brain
Another great political costume that reminds folks about the election is a scarecrow with the face of John McCain. This costume makes it obvious to everyone who the straw man is in this election cycle. If I only had a brain is the perfect song for Whistlin' Scarecrow McCain as he mingles with voters.

A Don't Think! Vote Republican! pin is nice addition to this costume.

What's Needed:
-Hay or straw
-Straw hat
-Overalls or trousers
-Flannel shirt
-John McCain Masque
-One Don't Think! Vote Republican! pin

Yawn Jockey
This costume may be politically incorrect, but Halloween isn't about touchy-feely hug-a-thons. To me, its about making people think. For some people, that is a most terrifying prospect. In this community, Barak Obama is hailed as a messianic figure who's going to save us all from ourselves, therefore depicting Obama as the Lawn Jockey of the DNC will shock and terrify even the most liberal party goer.
A Vote Democrat - Keep Slavery Safe and Legal pin adds a nice touch to this costume.

What's Needed:
-Jockey uniform
-Obama masque
-One Vote Democrat! Keep Slavery Safe and Legal pin
-One mouth full of marbles

Happy Halloween!
Don't Forget to Vote!
