LOL! New neo-con Ben & Jerry's
This is from today's www.relevantmagazine.com


"Now there's a conservative alternative to Ben & Jerry's ice cream. The Star Spangled Ice Cream Company is sick of other ice cream companies funneling money to more liberal causes, so they're doing something about it: serving up tasty flavors like I Hate The French Vanilla, Iraqi Road and Smaller GovernMint. Sigh. Looks like it's finally time to move to Canada ..."

1. I hate to admit it
But I've tried their ice cream, and it sucks. I didn't buy it, I just tried it at an event.

Really weak. Generally the flavors were tasteless, but when they had strong flavors, I wish they didn't. If that makes any sense...

3. Bad taste figures
They're too busy being ideologues to make good ice cream even if they know how.

4. Unlike Bushbot firms, they're NOT
strong-arming their employees to contribute to Kucinich.

They're just PERSONALLY for DK. Makes a BIIIIIG difference, I think.

8. I agree
and Ive been near a Ben and Jerrys at work saw nothing about Kucinich just a personal endorsement. Too bad Teddy Kennedy is endorsing Kerry if he endorsed Dennis that would be a giant step.

7. There can be nothing sweet about neo-cons
death, destruction, lies, negativity, hypocrisy, selfishness dont have much to do with sweetness. No wonder their ice cream sucks.

11. Ben and Jerry's
Great Ice Cream. But the Neo-Con artists just don't get. Ben and Jerry do not promote their political beliefs with the marketing of their ice cream. Yes they do give some of the profits to liberal causes. These ding dongs will not be able to sell their ice cream with these kinds of names. For once the conservatives have screwed up. Usually it has been the liberals doing stupid things like this. Finnally we see the neo-cons doing this.

By the way, the "Smaller GovernMint" was Timothy Mcveigh's favorite flavor.
