Employees At Amazon Have Been Going To Too Many Sarah Palin Rallies
Oops!
 

Persistence is the key in politics, and if you imply something enough times, it will eventually stick. So how about that Barack-Obama-is-a-terrorist thing? We all know it's working — maybe not enough to swing the election, but it's definitely working. And evidence of it shows up where you'd least expect it. An alert reporter at the Los Angeles Times noticed that Amazon.com had placed an Obama Halloween face mask on its "terrorist costume"* page. The work of a rogue, far-right content manager, perhaps? Amazon has since removed the $49.95 mask from the page, but not before the LAT managed to get a screen shot. I fear Halloween is going to be especially offensive this year.

*There's a whole category for terrorist costumes? What is a terrorist costume?

I also think this years Halloween is going to be very offensive. I am sure everyone is getting their "black face" paint ready!

Terrorist costume what the f@%k? I think Amazon should be fined for promoting hate your personal views are just that PERSONAL. And, Jerry do your homework just cause someone may be raised muslim doesn,t make them a terrorist right now you have people fighting for this country who are muslims I personally know of three. So sir before you make a comment do your research and besides you probably voted for bush who himself said that not all muslims are terrorist.

"Do your homework instead of just listening to CNN and NBC"

Comments like these always amuse me because they usually come from people who only watch Fox News.
