Yellow wristbands
Excuse in advance if it's been covered, but I have noticed Senator Kerry and others wearing a yellow wristband. I have to assume that it is a symbol of support for our troops? Where can one purchase same, especially if it also contains some Democrat symbol. (The Republicans certainly don't have a lock on morality, you know. We must let them know it!)

1. It has something to do with Lance Armstrong.

6. So that's it, then?
Senator Kerry is showing his support of Lance Armstrong, or his battle with cancer? I did go to the website suggested, but found no mention of Kerry....

2. It would be a good idea for a group of progressives to do something

like this.

How 'bout a nice pin? Not a cheap button, like a campaign button, but a nice pin that could be worn all the time, and has a *real* message about supporting the troops?

I think a few people have tossed around an idea like that, and I don't know why it couldn't be done.

3. Don't be jealous
If Bush wins in November, a lot of us will be wearing stuff.

Yellow stars, pink triangles, blue diamonds: the camps'll look like a bowl of Lucky Charms.
