The official logo of the 2008 GOP convention has been released.

http://www.gopconvention2008.com/media/logo/logo_600.jpg

Seriously. That's their logo.

Some observations:

-The elephant is literally starry-eyed. To be "starry-eyed" means to have an overly optimistic and unrealistic view of something.

-The ratio of blue to red in that logo is interesting, considering the Blue State vs. Red State division in the USA right now.

-Why is the elephant humping 2008? (Elephants only stand on their hind legs for one purpose.)

-Minneapolis + elephant with "wide stance" = lulz

-I realize the stripes on the elephant's body are supposed to evoke the image of the American flag, but I can't help seeing them as prison-stripes. It doesn't help that the elephant is looking right at the "con" in "convention."

See I saw those stripes and assumed that meant that the Republicans had lost the backbone of their party.

Why is it an elephent in the first place?

The elephant is the symbol of the Republican party. (The Democrats get a donkey.) The use of the elephant as a symbol for the Republican party dates back to a guy named Nast who drew editorial cartoons in the mid-to-late 1800s.

It kind of looks very circussy as if there should be a clown next to it.

Hmm, is it weird that I didn't know that?

No. It was drawn to represent the weight of the Republican vote, as they were the most unified party when Lincoln stepped in.

The Democrats got the donkey from their hero, Andrew Jackson, who was supposedly more stubborn than a jackass. The truth of the claim, the closeness of the words, and the fact that Jackson purpotedly backed it up, gave the Democrats the donkey.

They're both false, though. The Democrats should use a tapeworm, and the Republicans should use the pirhana.

So they are going to continue to wrap themselves in the flag as they try to fuck us once again in 2008 with their starry eyed cons?

It's not blue. The trunk is blue and the ground is blue, but the tree is green.

Hopelessly unrealistic and stupidly optimistic view of the world, and it's inherent problems?

Sexual deviancy?

Sounds like Republican senators all right. ;)

"Hey look, honey! The two symbols of the Republican Party! An elephant and a fat white guy who's afraid of change!" -Peter Griffin riding on an elephant.

I thought the elephant looked really stoned.

lol i find the color change funnier. the republicans have gotten alot of guff about the fact that they are using the color red, and red=commie according to just about everyone. they are probibly trying to get the dems to use red so they can affix the "commie" tag to them a bit more strongly then they do now. not that one republican wants to use that word anymore, they like "socialist" better. Means the same thing, but doesn't have the almost anachronistic conotations.
oh and as to the donky symbol for dems. it goes like this. Someone called Andrew Jackson a Jackass, he heard about it, liked it, and ran with it. Its been used every sense. as to the elephant well i think it had more to do with the memory then anything else not that i care one fig.

i will admit that the stary-eyed bit is a little strange even for them. though i would question the symbol. it looks a bit "planted" to me. no offence to Bottle intended. there are just so many things wrong with this symbol, even if its on an official Republican website to be real.
at the bottom of the actual page about the symbol is a tagline
Paid for by the committee on arrangements for the 2008 Republican National Convention. Phone (***)***-**** Not Authorized by any Candidate or Candidate Committee "website removed" this tagline is a bit currious if you ask me, especially with the last bit on it not being Authorized.

Yeah, that Iraq thing really was all over the shop.....

It's not nearly as bad as the College Republicans' motto: "Work with us today or for us tomorrow" (emphasis mine)

It's so shameless, it's not funny. Chances are, your boss will be someone who was a College Republican.

Conservative thought is traditionally blue. Some dumbass news service reversed it in 2000. I'm glad they are fixing it and hope the Democrats follow suit.

I don't see the prison reference...

It would be interesting if they nominate Ron Paul in St. Paul.

There should be The GOP and then there should be Republicans.

Wow, im a republican myself and im just ashamed about the party leadership.

Um, about the logo thats as exciting as a school pep rally, and frankly I hate it.

if I may...

RON PAUL 2008

It's just not authorized by any candidate or committee -- that means simply that the logo isn't for use by any candidate or candidate's "committee to elect This Guy". Not too suspicious, actually.

Also, has anyone else noticed that the Elephant has its tusks out? The usual GOP logo has the trunk, but not usually the tusks. Kinda bespeaks a bit of defensiveness if you ask me.

Gee, I always thought the elephant stood for fat rich people.

I thought it looked like a wildly drunken elephant humping 2008. I see a lot of us got the same thing.

In the United States we really have only 2 parties and 2 mascots. The Republicans are the Elephant and the Democrats Are the Jackass(Male Donkey). A female donkey would be called a Jennyass. See definition of Donkey. I have been banned before for these statements that are fact in our culture (i.e USA). We have a skewed definition of conservative and liberal. In our country (USA) conservatives are for personal responsibility, lower taxes, nationalism, small government, and strong family structure. Liberals are for father knows best state, the redistribution of wealth(socialism),Tax the succesful, globalism, Large government, and the lack of family structure. I will not defend anyone in office now because none are actually following the "usual" guidelines of their party. We have no true conservative in the USA. George W. Bush is Liberal in social spending, Liberal in global envolvement(wars,politics and illegal imigration amneisia), for large government(Department of homeland security/TSA), redistributes our wealth to other countries. The only thing he has done that is conservative is Patriotism(which I am a fan of, he has defended us from destruction by extremeists), and cut taxes and gave us back our second amendment to an extent. I voted for him twice and do not regret it for some reasons and do for others. I want a true Conservative to run our country.

I don't trust many other people, scratch that, any other person, to run the country. The only person I trust to run the country is me.

I am curious if the other countries in the world have mascots for their party. I.E. maybe the russian soviet leech. or the french squid. Just curious what you would choose for your countries parties mascot? list it next in the post.:)

Show us on the doll where the bad paragraph touched you. It's ok, no one will judge you.

That aside, you have an interesting and very flawed view of contemporary American politics.

I am glad you find my views interesting. Yet i think they are accurate and not flawed in our perspective. this is the way we see "Conservative and liberal". Libertarians are closer to conservatives, and socialists are closer to liberals. we have a "SKEWED" knowledge of politics. That is why when I am over in Europe and discussing our pollitics over a beer with you gents we get along even though I am a "conservative" when it comes to American pollitics.

So is the elephant having gay sex in a bathroom stall, or is he having gay sex with teenage pages, or is he having ordinary sex with a prostitute in Louisiana? or is the prostitute in Washington?

Is the elephant too dumb to realize that he's having sex with an inanimate object, and then getting praised by the president for doing a heckuva job?

Is the elephant a cross dresser? Is the elephant lying to congress while he humps the numbers? Is the elephant on methamphetamine?

Is the elephant talking about how things would be better if strom thurmond were president? Is the elephant calling people Macacas?

Is the elephant a gay prostitute who is being paid to pretend to be a news reporter, and getting called on by the president?

How many times has the elephant been divorced? If you multiply the elephant's wife's age by two, is she still much younger than the elephant? Was the elephant bribed to do this?

The symbolism of this new logo is so rich!

Better than the official seals of the United States Democratic Party.

I'm assuming because the dodo just stood there as it was being hunted to extinction. It's typically the symbol of something that failed to survive because it failed to adapt.

Why would i need a tissue? I was rebutting your earlier comments. Funny how when people do not want to debate the deflect from the subject.

You weren't rebutting anything...

I asked a series of questions and then made an assertion. If you want to rebut that assertion, you'll need to refer to it in your rebuttal.

If you don't think the republican logo is rich in symbolism, I'd be happy to hear why, I'm sure.

Your bawling isn't a "debate" and isn't even fodder for a debate. Do you know what a debate is?

Correction: You were asking a series of rhetorical questions designed to show the idiocy of the republican party.

The point of the post was not to ask the questions or to make the assertion: it was to present the party in a ridiculous light.

United States Earth utilized the same format, only he failed in the humor department. The aim was parallel, however: To show the ridiculousness of the Democrat party.

It was a rebuttal in that he showed that using your own methods the Democrats can be put in the exact same light, and therefore the "assertion" you made was void.

I returned with the same style questions you asked as a rebuttal, basically saying both sides are flawed and get off your high horse. Why is "rich" a dirty word for socialists? or if you mean "rich" in the term of "being of good or strong qualities" then I would agree with the Elephant being the symbol of the party of Lincoln and the jackass for the party of the Dixiecrat.

I personally think that both parties are screwed up and that we're just going to become worse and worse no matter who wins.
I just turned 18, so I'm going to be old enough to vote in the next election. But since I won't be voting Democrat or Republican, what's the point?

Someone told me once that if I don't vote for either of those two parties, then my vote would be wasted because "no one ever votes for [any other parties]", which is exactly the reason why this country is so stupid. Everyone thinks that either a.) there are only two choices, or b.) since no one votes anything other than D or R, I better pick one of them so my vote means something. If more people decided to jump off the bandwagon and try something called "thinking for themselves", maybe we wouldn't be such a sucky country.
:headbang:

(I couldn't say a lot of what I wanted to say because it would've gotten me banned for sure. D<)

I looked at the logo and...I'm not seeing it. I'm not seeing the humping. It's standing too far away, and the stance suggests far more of an attempt to look majestic and powerful than anything else. Yes, it's starry-eyed but I think that was meant to represent the stars on the flag and were placed on the eyes since no other place would make much sense. The starry-eyed effect was thusly unintentional.

I think the color blue is a bit overused in it though. Should've been a bit more even.

Indri: Oh please. Neither one of those are seals of the Democratic Party. If you're going to be partisan could you at least stop trying to paint the Democrats as some sort of left-wing party and admit their centre-right wingedness?

I returned with the same style questions you asked as a rebuttal, basically saying both sides are flawed and get off your high horse. Why is "rich" a dirty word for socialists? or if you mean "rich" in the term of "being of good or strong qualities" then I would agree with the Elephant being the symbol of the party of Lincoln and the jackass for the party of the Dixiecrat.

I don't know why "rich" is a dirty word for "socialists," I don't think it actually *is* a dirty word for socialists, but I am entirely sure that you don't understand what you're talking about, and I can prove it.

I don't think English is your native language, and I don't think you can comprehend it quite well enough to appreciate the meaning of what you read, I can prove this too.

To wit:
"The symbolism is rich" means that "there is a lot of complexity and depth to the symbolism," it is not pejorative in any way at all.

---

Back to the original topic though- Nothing I posted suggested that one party was better or less flawed than the other, so what you posted didn't rebut any position of mine, since I didn't take a position other than that the symbolism in the republican logo is rich.

What is more is that you did not understand the word "rich" as it was used in the sentence, so even when you sought to rebut my position, you failed to actually address it, or even anything related to it.

Instead, you responded as thought I had something else besides what I did, because you didn't understand the meaning of what you read.

Correction: You were asking a series of rhetorical questions designed to show the idiocy of the republican party.

You're wrong also.

If he wanted to make a humorous counterpoint showing the republicans to be ridiculous, that might be considered a 'rebuttal,' but he didn't do that.

Instead, he posted a laundry list of nonsense to the effect that the democrats are evil, traitors, destroying the country and the family, &c &c.

I didn't post anything that indicated a preference for democrats, so there was no point that I made which he might be "rebutting."

What's more, he didn't understand the word "rich" in my post to begin with, so it seems hard to believe that he could form a sensible rebuttal to begin with, since he didn't understand the only assertion made in the post to begin with.

::shrugs::

"rich" in the way you used it generally suggests sarcasm, as in it's "too good to be true".

I read his post, though poorly executed, to be a fair rebuttal to your own.

Regardless, it doesn't really matter.

I don't trust many other people, scratch that, any other person, to run the country. The only person I trust to run the country is me.
One should never trust a politician!

Your words, pal, your words.

Is this turning racist against ... elephants of colour? :eek:

No. It was drawn to represent the weight of the Republican vote, as they were the most unified party when Lincoln stepped in.

They're both false, though. The Democrats should use a tapeworm, and the Republicans should use the pirhana.

hahaha .. good one. I was myself (just after reading the question as to why the R gets Elephants etc post) trying to think of 2 new animals or parasites that might fit them better.

Is it weird that the other night I dreamt of a big ass male elephant coming towards me? I can't say whether he was really charging me or not.. but I sure as hell thought I should get out of the way. I've seen elephants in my dreams before.. but always far off or involved in something outside of myself.. never one coming toward me. I respect and have a caring for elephants btw... so it's not that I have some phobia of the animal themselves.

It looks kinda like the elephant is about to crush 2008.

What's wrong with Murderapolis? I know that Rybak isn't fit to run a Bruger King but in east Minnesota is where I was born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin', all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys they were up to no good
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air."

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought, "Nah, forget it. Yo home to Bel-Air!"

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabby yo holmes smell ya later
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-Air.

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought, "Nah, forget it. Yo home to Bel-Air!"

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabby yo holmes smell ya later
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-Air.

To properly "Bel Aire" a thread, you need to:

1) Have a longer lead in with more trolling potential
and
2) Post in paragraph form rather than verse form in order to minimize the transition between your lead in and the Bel Aire-ing.

Needs more incest too. And purple panties. For some reason they're always purple.
