Who says Republicans don’t have class? From the Dallas Morning News blog’s report on the Texas GOP state convention…
At the Republican state convention, a booth hosted by Republicanmarket was selling a pin Saturday that says: If Obama is President will we still call it the White House.
If you’re interested in their items, their website is here. Their slogan: “Patriotic and Republican Products at Republican Market.” I guess the above is an example of one of the Republican products. No clue if they’ve actually got any patriotic ones.
But if you’d like to find out about that, or anything else, you can email them at: sales@republicanmarket.com. More info on this impressive outfit is available here.
(Hat-tip BRAD BLOG reader GM)
UPDATE: Our friend Mike Rogers points out that Republicanmarket doesn’t bother to show that particular button on the buttons page at their slimy website for some reason. Go figure. Not sure why, since, as commenter Creid points out, they aren’t embarrassed about running this sexist garbage. Again, very very classy stuff.
UPDATE 6/19/08: The Texas GOP distances themselves from Republicanmarket.com, bans vendor from future events. Details now here…
I have this feeling, at least I hope that this type of crap backfires on these Rethuglican Christofascist.
Not that I think Obama is going to do a damn thing but he will certainly be better than McBush.
This group is not limiting its crap to racism — it also has the following bumper sticker for a potential nominee for the White House:

I won’t dignify it by repeating it, but it’s blatantly sexist.
Idiots.
On another thread someone spammed about a McCain for Democrats website called PUMA {Party Unity My Ass}. I think a dot can be connected between that oxymoron {Democrats for McCain} and the activities going on at spooky Larry Johnson’s disinfo forum. Both appear to be products of Rove/Atwater Incorporated. Perhaps both entities are astroturfing a possible alibi for another stolen election in November, that liberals and progressives do not like Obama and refuse to vote for him.
PUMA Party: Hillary Clinton Fanatics Working for McCain
Who the heck is Will Bower of PUMA? Is he as much of a planted fake as Larry Johnson appears to be?
A Clinton backer turns to McCain
I think astroturfing should be made illegal.
I found a post made by Bower at Larry Johnson’s strange forum.
I did notice another post about Larry Johnson the other day at BradBlog, so I know I’m not the only one making the connection between Johnson and his unrelenting smear attacks on Obama.
I’m trying to figure out who this Will Bower is. Could he be related to Wally O’Diebold?
I wonder how Condi feels about this.

And the right-wing wonders why the left-wing is becoming more violent as the decades pass. Even hippies, after being stepped on long enough, will get up and beat your ass for being a raging prick.
Hate, divisiveness, racism, sexism.. The core foundation to being a Republican in America. Toss in a dash of narcissism and you have Republican Leaders..
Well, my thoughts were, at least we could stop calling it the wh*re house.
Not only will you still call it the White House, some of us will exercise the overdeveloped GOP practice of hypocrisy.
While we have never referred to the current squatter as anything but W or Bush, you will refer to the Senator as President Obama.
You have 7 months to practice. Or pack.
Letter I sent to the company
To whom it may concern,
Due to the very fact that I don’t see the “If Obama is president…will we still call it the White House” button on your website I see that your company is scared shitless and won’t put its name behind its own product. Just because you put up the colors red, white, and blue on your website and can’t seem to get your lips off of Regan’s balls doesn’t necessarily mean your patriotic.
I bet you’re disappointed that you can’t live in a time when being racist was accepted and encouraged. Fortunately, the human race has advanced. Unfortunately, you haven’t.
Sincerely,
Thomas

Friedman? Hmmm…that’s not a Christian name, is it? Nope, smells like a Jew.
How low you guys have sunk since the days when you marched for civil rights for blacks, even risked your lives for equality for them.
What happened to you? What has turned you into such hatemongering, filthy racist trouble makers? I’d really like to know.
If you don’t change your diabolical ways, I’d like to see your kind kicked out of my once great country, so it can become great once again.
So either shape up, or ship out!
Brenda, I think you misread the post… or… you can’t tell Brad’s being ironic.
It fills me with joy knowing how angry the racists in this country will be when Obama becomes president. There is little to no chance McCain will win – he will be picked apart on so mnay policy fronts, mainly economy and iraq, but there are major issues like McCain voting against the GI bill that Webb (my guess for Obama’s VP) just put through. McCain said it is too expensive. He has no problem spending the money on the war, but has issues spending money on providing an education to those who going through the sacrifice serving in Afghanistan and Iraq – that just amazes me.
The election is already over. The racists in WV, KY, TX, etc.. won’t matter. They wouldn’t vote for a Dem anyway, their vote is useless. All fanatic votes are useless, it is only the moderates and indepedents that matter.
President Obama has a nice ring to it.

To all those saying or thinking there is little to no chance of McBush being *elected* think again.
There was little to no chance of Bush being *elected* in 2004 either, in fact HE WASN’T!
Kerry won by over 8 million votes.
All these fascist pigs need to do is pull another false flag attack, or have Israel attack Iran to give us an excuse to start WWIII which will let every ones guard down enough to once again easily steal the election in 08′.
and since for some odd reason even though many 10s of Millions of us know for a fact that the elections were stolen, and even if we all know the 08′ election is/will be stolen “We the People” will sit back and do absolutely nothing about it, so why shouldn’t they steal it?
Hell its child’s play and nobody will do a damn thing about it, there are zero consequences so I don’t blame the Neofascist one bit.
We the spineless People deserve exactly what we are getting.
“We the spineless People deserve exactly what we are getting.”
We’re spineless by design. Secondly, by being so “afraid of guns”, we’ve made sure that our (unConstitutional) standing army is MUCH more suited to “keeping everyone in line” than we are of “protecting ourselves”.
THIS is what happens when a society gets TOO soft, TOO lazy, TOO dependent on the Government to “protect them”. .. Now we’re trapped. Take up arms against tanks and jets and the world’s STRONGEST military? With what?
Not until we’re MUCH more oppressed than we are now will the average American decide that their freedom has value (if ever).
I seriously doubt “all” of the military will take up arms against American citizens, however for anything like that to actually be successful 10s of millions would need to take to the streets.
10s of millions of damn angry citizens most very well armed trumps a 100,000 or so military any day.
I somehow don’t see the military doing air strikes against their own country.
However I agree that not until 90% of every American is fighting for a bone with a stray cur from a trash can will we finally stand up.
Sadly waiting til then would make it 100X more difficult.
Take aim with your Bop Gun and fire.
…and then paint the White House black. Metaphorically and funkily speaking, of course.
Hi All: Please sign this petition and let the Texas GOP know what we think about their racist pin: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/322079918?z00m=15489513 Thanks!
“If You Lose the White House Do the Rest of Us Have to Allow you to Stay in our Country?”
Yes. I don’t want to leave.
…jeez, Brenda. Smells like a Jew? Who’s the racist here,hmmm? btw, we already kicked out the people whom this country really belongs to, didn’t we? At least Canada has the balls to say they are sorry. More than we’ve ever done for them.
It gets even better folks. Michael Williams, Republican Railroad Commissioner of Texas, was there at the convention and gave a speech with statements that would shock you more than that – I dont know this isnt getting more airplay. Check it out and see:

Somebody put LSD in my coffee again.
I know who the vendor is personally and just a little known fact is that he is British. Moved to the states a few years back.
Nunyabiz,
The American People aren’t lazy, it’s that they are fed fascist propaganda 24/7/365 as their only news source, it’s that when they do protest, it’s blacklisted by the fascist media and dimmed to a dull roar on par with the latest Elvis pilots a ufo story from the eNquir0r. It’s that our representatives are not representing us. It’s that fascist corporations are controlling our representatives. It’s that anything being tried to be investigated is blacked out by either “state secrets” or “an ongoing investigation, so we can’t comment.” It’s that congress has not been able to provide oversight because they are NOT a majority. It’s that the DOJ is viraly infected with corruption. It’s that those who are snooping and are in control of national security are completely incompetent.
correction…
It’s that those who are snooping and are in control of national security are completely incompetent and corrupt. It’s that the American People can’t get their vote counted.
The fact that people can buy stuff that says what Republicans are really thinking without giving money to the RNC are huge points in this enterprise’s favor. If you have a conservative/republican friend, you should nudge them in the direction of this site. It could be Public Relations dynamite for us commie race-traitors. Note the buttons calling for deportation of liberals (to polish camps perhaps?), calling liberals commies and mocking Hillary. We need more of that kind of thing to maximize our wins in November.

Gotta disagree. We’re maybe the laziest people in history. If we were not, we wouldn’t be in Iraq, wouldn’t be threatening Iran, these CRIMINALS would not be in office, and we’d already all be carbon neutral… among a number of other direly important things.

One wonders where these people come from?
What happened in the last “election” or were you in a coma during that time?
Sigh.
Check out these articles:

Oversight? You don’t still buy that bullshit do you?
I swear, some people are still making excuses and serving as apologists for the Dems, after all this time. As I’ve said, it’s part of the party-line programming of many/most people. Clearly, the Dems can do any and everything for the Bush regime and there will still be some people who will defend them. Why am I not surprised.
As I’ve said, the Dems could have every single seat in the House and Senate and nothing would change. A recent example of what I’m getting at here:
Democrats to back down on Iraq war conditions
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Democrats in the Congress, who came to power last year on a call to end the combat in Iraq, will soon give President [sic] George W. Bush the last war-funding bill of his presidency without any of the conditions they sought for withdrawing U.S. troops, congressional aides said on Monday. Lawmakers are arranging to send Bush $165 billion in new money for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, enough to last for about a year and well beyond when Bush leaves office on January 20.

Also, when the Repugs want something done in congress it doesn’t matter whether they are in the majority or not. They get what they want through.
This story released by the Republican Party of Texas is a fake. I went to the website where it was said to be sold and could not find the button. I also could not find any statement of apology from the company for their blatant racism.
I then did a search for the button and could not find it anywhere, only articles about it and how the Republican Party of Texas was quick to condemn such a “disgracefully insensitive button.”
This leads me to believe that this is just an attempt to say, “Hey, look at us. We’re not racist!” Clearly, if this button was sold at the convention, it was with the intent of making a media spectacle.
Saddly, I am not suprised. The Repugnant party is full of angry white people, who believe they should own others in numerous ways.
I live next door to a jack a** who once told me that “there is no such thing as the American Dream, that’s just what we rich and righteous tell the rest of you so you will work harder for us”. He also said that my youngest son was born with special needs because I did not go to his church. Only his church could have made my child whole, and it was my fault for not bowing to his church. (By the way, my child is perfect to me and all who meet him) My response was, ” I can not even respond to such ignorance.” And then I shut my garage door in his face. Two months later he had a heart attack. Guess his church didn’t save him (notice he always said ‘his church’ not his God.)
After WWII the Republican Party took in, helped hide and integrate countless rich Nazi’s. They got rich from stealing fortunes from those they has committed genocide against. Remember the Nazi’s murdered not just Jews, but gays and gypsies and countless others who did not fit their idea of the perfect race. The Republican Party got much richer and became the party of the rich and corporate. The mentality within the party was moved to the bigotry and UN-American standards that they are today. They simply had enough money to have the best P.R. teams in the world make them look like a party that working people could believe in. They always start up small issues and get the working class of their party all sturred up and out to vote for their candidates, and who don’t really understand what these representatives are doing to destroy the people’s lives, unions, schools, and infrastructure all in the name of greed.
So when I saw this button, I was at first suprised that they would actually put in print of any kind the truth that they preach. But really…..how suprised can we be? The Republican Party is a disgusting, bigoted, irrational and unpatriotic party that sells their lies to those who can not see past the bright lights. This is why the Nazi theme keeps popping up through out the years. It’s the truth, and this button is simply showing how low life and racists they still are all these years after they sold their souls to the Nazi’s who came here and hide with in their walls.
“”Remember the Nazi’s murdered not just Jews, but gays and gypsies and countless others who did not fit their idea of the perfect race.””
Wasn’t just the perfect race either, remember Hitler & all his henchmen plus every Nazi soldier were all devout Christians.
This lunacy also fits exactly what we are seeing today.

It would be even more interesting to find out just how many of these buttons were sold at the convention and how much profit the company made off of them. That would tell a story in and of itself.
