GOP contest: The slogan change you deserve

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 15, 2008 03:19 PM

I’ve been ragging on the Beltway Republicans for their lemming-like sloganeering and “Change You Deserve” crapola all week.

They deserve all the mockery that comes their way. They deserve it every day from now until the election until they get a clue.

Now, in the spirit of constructive change, I’m giving you the chance to offer up your slogan ideas to the GOP. Straight or snarky: It’s your choice.

Reader Kristen, who blogs at Mommy Needs a Cocktail, gets the first entry with her new t-shirts for sale here:

    When you positively absolutely haven’t a clue what you stand for, where you are going or what you are doing — Time to take one for the team. Jimmy Carter II is the best option.

    I guess it never occurred to the House GOP that the Democrats won with candidates that ran more conservative than their guy did. Nope probably never crossed their minds.

    and they think McAmnesty has coat tails?

You will see draconian enviromental laws. The promised actions of obama will push us into recession. The fairness doctrine will be enacted.

    You just don’t get it do you. Let me spell it out using small words so you’ll understand:

    1. Global warming is a socialist hoax created to have yet another excuse for even more control over our lives. And oh, did you know it’s actually been cooling since 1998?

    2. We WANT partisanship – otherwise we would vote for Democrats.

    3. STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY ON BS!!!

    4. Drill for our own oil.

    5. Drill for our own oil.

    6. The Democrat’s ideas are socialist – taking over more and more of our lives. Why do Republicans think it’s a good idea to come up with “their version” of the same bad idea.

    7. Freedom is risky – but better than the slavery of a “care taker” government. Anyone that wants that can move to Europe. America was founded to be different – remember?

    8. America is a nation of LAWS – including immigration. If that one continues to be ignored then we’ll just start ignoring the tax laws. Maybe you’ll put up your own money for a change.

    9. Drill for our own oil.

    10. Grow some balls and FIGHT!
