"So, Repub Buds, How Do You Like Your New Logo?"
LAST EDITED ON 10-04-07 AT 03:41 PM (EST)

First, let me say I recognize that the Democrats are the party of the jackazz. The donkey. Not a felicitous choice and certainly good fodder for icon humor.

But I did get a chuckle out of the newly-unveiled republican elephant:

1. It's BLUE! In fact, as I just read on some typically leftist commie pinko blog, it's got about a 80-20 blue to red ratio. Harbinger much?

2. The star in a cartoon animal's eye just looks like a cross over the cartoon animal's eye, and we all know from the comics that this means the animal is dead. It looks like the elephant is either dead, or did a little E before posing.

3. The prison stripes are a nice touch.



I won't make the obvious, obscene comment about the position of the elephant and the year 2008. But I think there's a metaphor there. NOTE THE WIDE STANCE!

I don't love it, but since it's just the convention logo not such a bid deal. I DO wonder just WTH the elephant is so happy about.


I remain a GOPer to the core, but there isn't a lot of joy in the party at the moment.

Edited to fix typos since I am still laughing too hard to see straight--


This is officially my favorite post of ALL time ever made on OT, Forever.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the good laugh. Lord knows I am needing it these "BushWorld" days.

You had me chuckling at star eye (= dead) and completely laughing at prison stripes. By the time I hit "wide stance" I was falling off my chair.

I love you Forever Ginger!

(Let's hope the humor bone is somewhere in that elephant as well.)

Well, it works for me as a perfect metaphor for the Bushies.

Let's see:

- It seems to be rampaging out of any sort of control. Check.

- The star in the eye socket might be a metaphor for the elephant being either a cokehead or a drunk. Check.

- Elephants haven't been used much for combat since the days of Hannibal. Neither have any Republicans, with the exception of John McCain. And Vietnam may as well have been in Hannibal's day for all they learned from it. Check.

Perfect.


"And now the whole nation -- pulpit and all -- will take up the war-cry, and shout itself hoarse, and mob any honest man who ventures to open his mouth; and presently such mouths will cease to open. Next the statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." Mark Twain

Um...

And while the elephant may be in a wide stance and mounting position, it doesn't quite hit the target.

Even more perfect.

Actually, elephants never "hit the target", as it were. There's never any penetration. Technically, (basis our definition of loss of) all elephant births are "virgin" births.

Given the party's position on reproduction that makes it even more perfect, actually.

So if we take this a little further along the logic road, then by definition, when the Elephant Jesus comes, he will have to have been conceived by...

...well, that's going to make for an interesting holy book.

And we do know that it's male. How do we know this? The ears show that it's an Asian elephant (given what's been happening with Chinese imports lately, that's a whole 'nother nuance we could make) and only male Asian elephants have tusks.


Agman made me a pack.
Both male & female African elephants have tusks. But, why be represented by an African elephant? It's much easier to simply ignore the issues they have. At least until we find oil there.

And also because come November '08, we could see the creation of a mass elephant graveyard.

Except for Craig, of course. He'll just lock himself in his office, make no noise, and pretend he's not there.

In all fairness I must make the following note:

Jackasses are quite intelligent. Horses will overeat and founder themselves, a jackass never will. And, a horse will willingly go into a dangerous situation if asked by a human he trusts. A jackass? Fugetaboudit. They assess situations and think for themselves. They're selective.

That's one of the reasons the Army used mules as pack animals through WWII. They weren't going to get themselves into trouble, and they might keep the troops away from trouble, too.

Elephants have a tendancy to stampede. When they do go on a stampede they have a tendancy to destroy everything in their path. They also do have long memories and will hold grudges against someone they believe has wronged them.

This is not meant to be a political statement. I used to be a Republican. It's just notes on the tendancies of the animals that have been chosen as representative logos. I have no idea if either of them were originally chosen by Ogden Nash for these traits. (He worked for The Blade - the Toledo Blade, our primary newspaper - for awhile. Not sure if he was here when he came up with the mascots, but he's the one that did - and they caught on.)

It's nice that Ogden Nash worked there, but it was Thomas Nast who came up with the mascots. (He also came up with the visual image of Santa.) I believe Nast was working for Harper's Weekly at the time.

Oops. My mistake. Couldn't quite remember and dh came up with Ogden. He's usually pretty good with history so I went with it without checking.

*Originally it was just for me, but when I read your response to dh he insisted on taking his licks, too. We were digging for memory, and we dug up the wrong body. You're correct, of course.
