Wearing the "colors"

[Hessian]

Here we see a gutsy guy who decided to wear Kerry & Bush buttons/clothing and enter the heart of the Blue/Red areas in California. What kind of reaction does he get wearing BUSH 04 in a lefty coffee house? The writing is clever, yet insightful...enjoy

I find it interesting that while wearing the Kerry stuff, he goes on basically unmolested and ignored.

Wearing the Bush-Cheney stuff he is considered a vile dog and is cursed at.

Just another unbiased look at how hateful democrats really are.

I think the part that seemed the most relevant was when he said the many lefties regard any kind of restraint with their words as some kind of personal censorship, so they kind of let loose. This might explain why the Dixie Chicks thought they were being censored when people chose not to buy their albums.

Anyway, the further analysis might be closer to the truth - Replublicans are *used* to being vilified by everyone, the papers, the media, movies and TV. They really don't care what you wear at this point.

I tried to make this my AV.. but despite my best efforts at cropping & resizing, it wasn't readable. Maybe you premo's with the bigger AVs can use it.
