"Make your own purple heart bandages! Just like the ones seen during..."
"Make your own purple heart bandages!! Just like the ones seen during the convention: Purple heart stickers can be found at any arts & crafts store. Bandages can be found at any drug store."

You can find this helpful hint here:
http://www.shopmetrospy.com/cgi-bin/sc-v3/catprod.pl?client=shopmetrospy&catid=33%20

This page features a big purple heart button with the blurb, "250 decorated Vietnam Veterans can't ALL be wrong. - - When John Kerry asked for, 'two asprin, a bandage and one purple heart', he never expected his lies and exagerations to haunt him 30 years later."

(the misspellings are theirs, not mine)

Take the link and see this thing - they added the part about making your very own bandage after I talked to their rep yesterday afternoon.

J&J Trademark department has been notified about this button page as well as about the RNC delegates wearing band-aids at the convention. The atty I talked to was startled, hadn't heard about it yet and said they would want to act on this asap.

Discussion of this from yesterday details what happened:

1. It figures that repukes would need instructions.
It must be pretty tough to figure out how to put a glittery purple sticker on a bandaid.

3. Thanks for the link. I just wrote to them.
I think more DU'ers should do the same. Shame them into taking that crap off their site.

It appears as though the young republicans in Mrs. Johnson's 7th grade civics class have learned HTML !

Good thing they're too young to vote.

on edit....
Do you really think they'll really sell me that "Drug Abuser For Kerry" button ?.....I can wear it on my NORML shirt.

5. If enraged Vets don't organize a protest march against this they are nuts!
They should either turn in their purple hearts or the active duty soldiers should turn in their uniforms. (in a mock way, of course).

6. Isn't there a Vets Purple Heart organization? A volunteer at our state
Kerry headquarters mentioned this. I haven't checked into it.
