		<description>One persons views should not be taken as of that of the populous . look in side your self and see if what you say to others that don&#039;t agree to your view on this issue is not on the same lines .what ever the mans color of skin blue black red or white yellow or green from earth ,mars or the moon.

 You have the right to vote to see that the persons you elect do the thing that we as a nation under god stand to the occasion for. will this happen time is the only answer for this no matter who wins the race for the seat in the white house . but I my biggest question to all is how much do you need to spend in the millions to take a job that only pays 250k per year plus free health care all the while promising the populous that work jobs after going to school taking  out loans  for over 100k  to make 35k to start with teachers being one of them you break that up over 12mth 2.92kper mth .Now that your that far up the chain take out the health care 1k per mth for a 60 hr work week 8.34 per hour lets not forget that person we put in the white house needs his cut at 8.25/%plus med care 2%/ss at6% 1.36 = 6.98 per hr they work.Its not about the populous its about them selves ,the y faster we as a nation wake up and see this the faster we came change it   are selves . so to print what is on the mans buttons to drive it on the republicans desk is not right for all you know he could to supported by naacp. to make this thing a raciest heated debate or the black panther party. and if you take it to heart then he wins so don&#039;t give this ignorant pompous a@@ your time . and go out and vote for the person you feel in your sound mined and heart is thee one for the job . not just for the color of  skin or if they put on the right shoe before the left but rather can they do the job that we as a nation need them to do.this is what you need to ask .talk to your network listen to the issue the vote .but remember this one thing if you don&#039;t vote you will never be heard No matter how loud you scream. ask the man tat you vote for this one thing and it will never be answered what does the constitution  amendment 15 ,1&amp;2 and what year they where in place then ask about amendment 14 ,3 as well as all those in the house and  on all the comities.see what happens then</description>

		<description>Justin - You are right.  David demeans himself with that stuff.  But going to your challenge to &quot;discuss why pointing out buttons like this are important in the grand scheme of the campaign season.&quot;  Honestely, I don&#039;t know.  It puts a highlight on an infinitismal, meaningless fringe margin that no one cares about.  It is similar to what FOX News does when it pulls out some totally inarticulate goof-ball nut to defend the anit-Iraq War position.  There is always going to be stupid, hating people.  No offense, but I fully expect the Obama supporters to stir up as much white-guilt between now and November as possible.  How to do that?  Find the button, perferably at a Republican function.  JACK POT!</description>

		<description>Okay everybody, calm down and please stop calling people liars and bastards. 

Additionally, if David wants to represent himself as a racist here, so be it. He condemns himself with his own words. I hope everybody rises above that to discuss why pointing out buttons like this are important in the grand scheme of the campaign season.</description>

		<description>What a racist bastard you appear to be, David in Rome, GA.  I&#039;ve got a clue for you, buddy, this is the 21st century.  Your type of person is going the way of the dinosaur. Thank God our younger generation is smarter than you appear to be.  

Take the sheet off your head, dude, it&#039;s a brand new day.

By the way, Church&#039;s chicken sucks.</description>

		<description>So Jax, you got that link yet?  I will therefore conclude that the Obama button is racist and offensive and that the McCain diapers are non-existent, a figment of your imagination.

If you find the link, I&#039;ll reconsider, but until then you look like just another liar.

Link, please?

Also, I missed that part of the story that said that diaper&#039;s with McCain&#039;s name on them would be acceptable.  I think you made that one up in your head, too.</description>

		<description>It seems like a perfectly honest question written on that button to me! After all if Barak &quot;Curious George the Monkey&quot; Obama is elected President will we become an Islamic-loving country or will they start delivering KFC or Church&#039;s fried chicken to the White House on Friday nights?</description>

		<description>Did anyone catch Mike Huckabee&#039;s speech at the Texas GOP convention?  He was fantastic.  Inspiring, funny, witty, motivating and a super surrogate for Senator McCain.  This man can take command of a room like nobody!!!  Lots of excited Republicans at that convention, many of whom voted for Mike.  My point is, McCain/Huckabee&#039;08.....priceless!!!!!!</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve got to say that I find lots of references to diapers and McCain but nothing about diapers with McCain&#039;s name on them. And I agree with Justin about how inappropriate it would be.</description>

		<description>RepublicanMarket itself might not even be to blame. Making buttons is pretty simple technology. A single stupid vendor could have come up with the idea and stamped them out on the spot. They certainly have plausible deniability so long as the button isn&#039;t on their site or wasn&#039;t available at all their booths.

Saddly, this is probably just one of many racial &quot;jokes&quot; we&#039;ll see this campaign.</description>
