Kill Bush Say the Murderous Psychos on the Left
We know that the re-election of George Bush has caused the left to become completely unhinged. But soliciting the assassination of the president of the United States is way beyond the pale. In fact, someone needs to be locked up for this act of sedition.
The first thing that needs to be done is to hold Cafepress.com responsible for the merchandise displayed on their web site, which is where this revolting shirt was being sold until, after much publicity on conservative talk radio, the conservative press and the blogosphere, it was yanked to be replaced with this disclaimer:
The "Kill Bush" products have been removed from CafePress.com. They were created by individuals across the globe, as are the more than 8 million products available on CafePress.com, a diverse network of more than one million shops.Hate related materials are in violation of our terms of service and are prohibited from being sold through CafePress.com. CafePress.com is an automated service, and as such, products are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure that merchandise that is in violation of our terms of service is removed from our site.
Funny how the URL on this disclaimer page contains the word "sorry" at the end of it. Sorry for what? Not being able to sell George Bush assassination advocacy T-shirts? And regardless of the disclaimer, someone knows who posted this objectionable piece of crap and they need to cough up that information. We all value freedom of speech in this country, but freedom of speech doesn't extend to advocating the violent murder of the head of the executive branch of the federal government on a T-shirt. Perhaps the Secret Service is already involved in tracking down the enemy, foreign or domestic, responsible for advocating this sedition. Let's hope they throw the book at them.
Of course this T-shirt isn't the only example of the virulent hatred for President Bush displayed by the "tolerant" left. Witness what passes for leftist art these days:

WorldNetDaily reports that:
Secret Service agents are investigating the display, according to the Associated Press."We need to ensure, as best we can, that this is nothing more than artwork with a political statement," Secret Service spokesman Tom Mazur said.
Sorry, Tom, but advocating the assassination of the president of the United States isn't a valid political statement. Anyone care to guess what would happen if a conservative dared to display images advocating the assassination of Bill Clinton during his terms in office? Fortunately us conservatives have a lot more class, sanity and rational thought processes than this. And obviously the hate-mongering murderous psychos are on the left.

Steve, I had just checked this out on Michelle Malkins blog. She has quite a few more examples of hateful merchandise from CafePress on there. Now, if it is just in bad taste, gross, or enormously critical, both libs and conservatives should be able to take it, and some of these products are just that. But, a few absolutely cross the line. Cafe press needs to do a better job at their stated policy of not selling " hate related material".

No Lyn, disturbed people can also be for conservative causes,though this is just a handful of people that you are referring to. Increasingly, the Left seems to be losing it in a big way. Witness the food throwing incidents at colleges.

Two wrongs make a right?
Rather then attempt to excuse, rationalize or apologize for these despicable products, simply by pointing to other despicable actions performed in the past, why don't you tell us your opinion on these products.
At a Nazi war-criminal hearing, do you think they would have let SS soldiers off if they had said "But the Germans who died in the Teutenberg Forest were killed by Romans!" ?
If some insane McVeigh type blows up a building, that justifies some other person to assassinate yet another person ten years later somehow????
You DO realise that 'right' and 'left' are political philosophies and nothing more? I'm not sure you're aware, but there is no active civil war in progress. This tit-for-tat, a-person-died-who-happened-to-be-a-liberal-so-now-someone-should-assassinate-the-conservative-president mentality is disturbing. Perhaps in your strange world, the 'red state / blue state' issue seems more like Serbia and Bosnia circa 1910, but I suggest you seek psychiatric help.

MJ Coming from right wingers who all but have the line "But CLINTON..." Tattooed on their foreheads And you who personally compared TEH CLENIS to Republicans using the Schiavo case a political club I have nothing to offer but a warm heart STFU.
This guy is a nobody and you guys try to hold him up as some kind of example of the left. But when elected officials when like Delay and Cornyn all but threaten judges and make excuses for judge murderers you couldnt care less.

Tom DeLay calls open season on Federal judges and you don't give a damn. Matter of fact a conservative racist (seems those two words mesh together very well) killed a judge last month. The shirts and stamps were said in jest

Hey, JACKASS.
I did not compare Bill Clinton's penis to anything in the Terri Schavio case. I merely pointed out that those who would crucify republicans for failing to put honesty, decency, and morality above a 'cause' are often the same ones who glorify a man who failed to put honesty, decency and morality above an orgasm. People who have pet names for the former president's penis come to mind.

In fact, Um Yeah, you prove my point.
You show just how disturbed you are, when you equate someone saying 'but so-and-so commited a hideous act of murder first' with 'but clinton did such and such political scheme first'.
You don't seem to seperate politics (or for that matter, any bickering over nearly any subject) and a concious act of murder.
I do hope you get help, or get put away, before you go completely off the deep end. You're going to hurt someone, Um Yeah.

Wow Lynn....nice red herring. If you can read, you'd see that we're talking about those that are advocating FOR the death of the POTUS, not the murder of civilians.
...and UY continues the fish toss with MORE IRRELEVANT material. We're talking about the advacating of the assassination of the POTUS.
Now, as with the Secret Service that HAS to do at least a cursory investigation on the matter to ensure that it's just some idiot saying somethingt stupid.....it's a different thing to say "Kill Bush" than to say "I'm gonna kill Bush"...the former being an idiotic statement by someone with little to say (I DO like the originality of the "drop Bush, not Bombs" paraphenalia)...the latter being a felony.
How many on the left would shed a tear if someone DID do what this shirt advocates? Before UY adds another smelly fish.....I didn't like Clinton much...but NEVER advocated for his death and can easily put my personal thoughts aside because I understand that it's not the person I respect, it's the OFFICE.

Arafat died of natural causes (at least that's what we know). Otherwise you right wing fucks would have probably been in favor of his assassination. Arafat was elected by the Palestinians and tried to defend the rights of the Palestinians. He crossed the line however on several occassions. But so did a man like Sharon when he sent the phalangist into the Palestinian refugeecamps Sabra and Chatila and 3.000 innocent Palestinian women and children were slaugtered. My point is very simple. You can't agree on the assassination of one and say it's uncivilized or insane to approve the assassination of another(for instance Bush). People like you are the reason conflicts escalate. But correct if I'm wrong. Were you or were you not in favor of Arafat's assassination?

What about a shirt with a another phrase on it? Like for instance: I HOPE THE MF GETS EATEN BY WORMS (With Georgies picture below the phrase of course). Or how about this one: I HOPE A COMET WILL STRIKE HIS DAMN RANCH (with a picture of his Texas ranch being struck by a comet). One more: I HOPE THE WORLD WILL BRING HIM TO JUSTICE (with a picture of Dubuya behind bars). So many people around the globe hate George W.Bush for so many reasons. All we want to do is express ourselves!!

You are all so lame for bickering about crap. Blue State? Red State? Screw the states! There is only Purple.
Posted by Damien at April 14, 2005 02:43 PM
Hey MJ you just did and you are right now. I mean WTF? You are using her and saying they compare.
If you think they seriously compare to one another then you are a twisted fuck.
Thing is, IT IS scummy to cheat on your wife BUT adultery is also very common. If somehwere around 50% of Americans werent doing iststill wouldnt compare to using Schiavo as a political tool.
you are, when you equate someone saying 'but so-and-so commited a hideous act of murder first' with 'but clinton did such and such political scheme first'.
But you are the one who said it. I mean come on, you just said it.

Republicans set themselves up as the "moral majority", when they act worse than any Democrats it can be called worse because then you can add hypocrisy to their failings.

Yadda yadda yadda "It was all about sex".....felony purjury, felony obstruction of justice. WJC wasn't impeached because he committed adultery.
Care to comment on the topic, or is all you got just diversionary bullshit?

I don't find this t-shirt to be funny at all. I personally think it is very offensive. As Sarge said, George W. Bush holds the office of the President of the United States. He is both the leader of this nation and a fellow American. If someone had advocated killing Bill Clinton, I would have been equally offended. The President represents the entire United States and an act of violence against the sitting President constitutes an act of violence against the United States as a whole.

Attacked visa pie?
Thing is I wouldnt.
The only time I have ever deemed pies in the face unfunny was when some idiot tried to pie Ariel Sharon (so I guess all heads of state are the exception). Pie thrower got his ass beat by Israeli bodyguards deservedly I might add.
But I do not get upset or pretend to get upset by flying pastries. Until you show sometime in the past where I have said differently I offer you a warm hearty glass of STFU.

Do you ever post without cursing somebody out? Geez! O.K. so you are stating that you wouldn't have anything negative to say were it Franken, Moore, Clinton, Gore, Dowd, et al, that were pelted with food?
