I would love to have one of these buttons, because I am a straight-up thug. I probably shouldn’t link to the page that sells them, since I’m sure that money all gets funneled into buying bombs for abortion clinics.

But DAMN, who wouldn’t want a “Drug Abusers for Kerry” button?

Please, please, people. DO NOT buy any of these buttons for me, no matter how much I beg you. I can’t have that on my conscience.

Everyone knows that we can’t have both environmental protections and a healthy economy with plenty of jobs. If we try to save the environment, we’ll end up throwing people out of work: timber loggers can’t log, coal miners can’t mine, oil barons can’t bar, etc. I think we’re only weeks away from hearing someone posit the converse to this theory, the brighter side to the 2.3 million jobs that went missing in the Bush administration: obviously, the environment must have gotten that much better!
