Blue Bracelets

Neil Boortz has this to say about the new blue bracelet craze. I couldn't have said it better myself, so I won't....

"We have this female in New York City who doesn't want to be associated with being an American. Those are her words. She's ashamed of America, and ashamed to be an American. The reason? Because George Bush is president. You see, she voted for John Kerry, and he lost. Her name is Berns Rothchild, and she's come up with an idea of blue bracelets; blue bracelets fashioned after the popular LiveStrong yellow bracelets you see everywhere. The blue bracelets say "Count me Blue" and are are supposed to be an indication that you did not vote for George Bush.
Fair enough. No, I'm not upset by this. I think it's a fantastic idea. I want it to spread. I want every person out there who voted for John Kerry, every person who donated money to his campaign, to end up wearing one of these blue bracelets. This can only be good for America, and here are some of the reasons why:

1. The blue bracelets will easily identify people who believe that America is great because of its government instead of freedom.
2. The bracelets will identify people who believe that any price paid for freedom is too much, and that living peacefully as a slave is better than fighting to be free.
3. The bracelets will identify people who believe in the mob, and not in the individual, and who have enlisted wholeheartedly in the war against individualism.
4. We will be able to identify the people who believe that America should be a country of equal results rather than a system that guarantees equal opportunity.
5. People who believe that the government should own and control our retirement accounts will be identified by that flash of blue on their wrists.
6. We will be able to recognize those who believe that accomplishment should be punished while laziness and poor decision making should be rewarded."
