War is declared and battle come down. Let's find out who did this and subject them to a mass media shaming. And let's make every single one of the rest of the Republican elected officials in Texas and all over have to address this, bringing further attention that the problem was there in the first place so they lose big and everyone's ashamed to be associated with the GOP.

3. My response...
No you fucking idiots, we'll have to change it to the Black House? Happy now?

All these idiots deserve is our contempt, sarcasm and mockery. They don't even merit outrage. Why waste our energy on outrage when mockery and sarcasm are so much more appropriate?

16. Right on! We could even tell
the moronic morans that we'll paint half of it black and leave the other half white. Watch them stare and sputter as they try to figure that one out!

4. And they will be wearing them in St. Paul at the convention. I hope
they get pushed around by some good Minnesota Democrat.

6. That's all they got
I hear the TX GOP convention was a sick joke all around. You know it's bad when the presidential nominee doesn't bother to show up.

And, do tell your friends about this little gem:

11. No, it seems that button isn't available online yet.
I got their link from here:
http://mouemagazine.wordpress.com/2008/06/17/will-we-still-call-it-the-white-house/

and here:
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/06/17/gop-convention-button-asks-if-obama-is-presidentwill-we-still-call-it-the-white-house/

I looked at the other buttons on their website and it will fit right in with all the other insulting narrow-minded crap they sell.

15. Take a look at some of the buttons
You can tell the guy is only selling Democratic items to cover the market. Not one of them says Democratic. His heart just isn't in the slogans.

As for the repub items, that dude means business.

18. There's a huge difference just in the main page - so many fewer items on the Dem site!

Edited to add: his only political contribution was $250 to the N.C. Republican Executive Committee.

12. MSM will of coarse try to avoid covering this
But not if we mass e-mail a lot of different reporters.

20. Will all conventions now need to be policed for rogue wares?
I can see it now; Slick Dick slips into a convention of Democratic members and covertly
gets a cover story from his agent provocateur selling (insert filthy merchandise here)
and spams the news outlets.

Either this buttonhead is a real racist or too clever for his own badness.
