Bush* calendars, cards, and condoms - does his image get compensated for?
Bush* ain't worth a penny, but dim as he* is, even Bush* would speak up if he didn't get his just-due earnings for everybody's exploitation of him.

Personally, Bush should be ignored - not celebrated.

The remainder of this post is R-Rated, but if you can stand some ribald gross-out humor you might like this...

But I would buy and use a Bush* condom. The way I'd be using it, it symbolizes perfectly what he's doing to America! :evilgrin:

1. No, his public likeness is public property... the photographer
who took the picture should be compensated though.

2. Cool! Same thing should happen to actors...
What they do is for the public, so why not? As a result, movie ticket prices would be lower, actors wouldn't get paid so ridiculously much, no more need to have 10 minutes of credit card and car ads running before the movie starts... the list of benefits goes on and on...

Of course, commie pinko liberal as I am, it's only natural for me to think of that!

3. I just saw several boxes of "Freedom Cards"....

...at a nearby gas station/convenience store. When I saw Dubya's face on the red, white and blue box with the caption, "FREEDOM CARDS: 52 AMERICAN HEROES," I thought I would puke. Maybe I should have!

4. YYYYAAAAAARRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!
The Cretin* administration really wants to endorse and push itself as being America's savior and salvation this far?! Don't they realize that nearly half the country knows them for what they really are?

5. Spiro Agnew rolling papers
One of the first joints I smoked used rolling papers with the image of Spiro Agnew.

I bet he never got a dime in royalties!
