Can I use it as a voodoo doll?
Nov. 15th, 2005 11:35 amSo, I'm going through eToys.com, my search narrowed down to 8 year old boys and I come across this.
...The hell?
After reading the doll's description, (Bush has earned a reputation as a compassionate conservative who shapes policy based on the principles of limited government, personal responsibility, strong families and local control.) I started to wonder if eToys was owned by some uber-conservative group, when I read the description for the Rumsfeld doll:
Donald (Rummy) Rumsfeld is tight-lipped and reluctant to let the press know exactly what is going on behind closed White House doors, so when he talks, he makes news...Press his button to listen to 28 different phrases including: "I believe what I said yesterday. I don't know what I said. But I know what I think. I assume that's what I said."
Has to be a satire, right? Something for the grown ups to giggle over? No one could seriously think their 8 year old doll would want to play with these things. Unless they are raising the next generation's Alex Keaton.
