2. "a portion" usually means that if it costs $25,
$0.25 goes to where they say "a portion" is going to.

And she is just standing there laughing. Not much of a hero if you ask me.

9. Any site with a Toby Keith endorsement must be good
http://saluteheroes.org/video2/tobykeith.shtml

I'm willing to bet the little white writing on the inside of those wrist bands says made in China and the people who make them get about as many pennies as the heroes get in proceeds.

12. It's a sad thing that anything with red, white and blue...
has come to mean supporting chimpyboy and his war. I want our flag colors back.

15. That guy really looks like he doesn't want his picture taken.
Like he put on a smile for the picture and then said 'Leave me alone!' Right after that.
