New Party Favors
In honor of the nadir recently attained by the congressional kindergarten antics that "democracy" in Murka has devolved to, I've decided that it's time to update the symbols of the two factions of the ruling corporate party.
The political cartoonist Thomas Nast's original symbols no longer carry whatever resonance they once may have possessed. Here's his original political cartoon that forever cemented the symbols of the two factions:
What the fuck is that? Buncha animals doin' stuff that doesn't make any sense. It was probably just as stupid in its time too.
But somehow the donkey and the elephant stuck, and they eventually morphed into these brand logos:
Stupid Democratic Donkey | Stupid Republican Elephant |
(You can read each faction's phony-baloney rationale for their symbols, if you really give a shit.)
It's time to re-invest the symbols with an immediacy, a potency that people will intuitively grasp. Hence I offer some suggestions to replace each party's outmoded symbol. There's a variety to choose from, and they were specially designed so that even the most obtuse intellect can easily ken their symbolic significance.
Here, then, are my suggestions for each party's new symbols, freely offered without any licensing restrictions.
New Symbols for the Demoncraps | |
The Windsock | |
The Jellyfish | |
Trixie, The Inflatable Fuck Lamb | |
A Skidmark | |
Ben Dover (aka "Mr. Fistee") | |
The Blue Dumpster in the middle |
New Symbols for the Repugnicans | |
The Piledriver | |
The Piranha | |
The Obedience Chair | |
The Raytheon HUAC-2007 Rapture Bomb | |
Dick Cheney | |
The Red Dumpster on the far right |
And while I'm at it, I think it's time to update Uncle Sam too.
Murka's New Uncle | |
Murka's Stodgy, Flaccid Old Uncle Sam | |
Murka's Virile, Exciting New Uncle Nemesis |
New Times call for New Symbols. I want to do my bit to help re-brand Murka so that people will have a clearer idea of just what's being sold.
A big Inspector Lohmann Hat Tip to Operative Alfie, Operative Picante, and Mister Mark. Thank you!
