Dress Code Recommendations For Attendance at Temple Obama

Posted on August 27, 2008 by Uppity Woman

 

The Republican Party has been kind enough to clarify dress code concerns for those attending tomorrow night’s appearance by The One before his subjects. Aren’t they great guys? Do you not look forward to voting for their candidate? I mean when was the last time you saw a sense of humor come out of the Obama camp? Go ahead, think about it: I’ll wait….

Re: Proper Attire For The Temple Of Obama (“The Barackopolis”)

Today, workers at Invesco Field are putting the final touches on the newest wonder of the modern political world — The Temple of Obama (“The Barackopolis”). It is upon this pulpit that Barack Obama will tomorrow night address thousands of screaming, adoring fans.

There may be some confusion among the press about the venue and appropriate dress code for Barack Obama’s big speech. To help out, we wanted to provide the following tips on appropriate attire. The toga may have gone out of style centuries ago, but after Obama’s temple speech tomorrow night, they’re sure to be flying off the racks.

They have been tasteful enough to also offer suggested toga styles:

They have also been kind enough to provide proper instructions for wrapping your toga.

    Ah well Uppity, I have written a poem for the occasion….

    (set in the desert fifty years from now) Special thanks to Shelley

    Obamamandius–

    I met a college kid from Nintendo land
    Who said, “three vast and mindless words I’ve known
    Stand in the desert.. near them on the sand
    Half sunk a shattered logo lies, whose sun
    And vapid rainbow whine of cold command
    Tell that its designer well those mantras read
    Which yet survive, stamped on all lifeless things
    The hand that cartooned them and the minds it fed
    And on the pedastal these words appear
    My name is Obamamandius, Suit of suits
    Look on my lack of works, ye Mighty and despair
    Nothing in me is real. Round the decay
    Of my colossal logo, empty of man
    The lone and level nothingness of, “Yes,we can.”

    What a great picture if the Bots would actually show up there dressed the part? NP, HD, DB, and of course BHO, MO, and JB.

    Oh I don’t know Crier. I think I might go blind if I saw Donna Brazile in a toga. I won’t even get into Howard The Hood Ornament.

    It’s important to have a sense of humor. Nice to see that at least one out of our two presidential candidates is a human being.

    Uppity, after tomorrow, I may have to change my screen name to NoEmptyTogas.
    Your comment at 1:26 am is achingly funny.
    Altho’ the best one today may have been the bit about standing your ground with a gun and ensuring your dog gets a “meal.” Now, that was a true blue classic.

  11. Uppity Woman, on August 28th, 2008 at 2:05 AM Said:

    Yes I think the toga screen name is appropriate to the auspicious occasion.

  12. noemptysuits, on August 28th, 2008 at 2:09 AM Said:

    Wow, blow me away, songster.
    Obamamandius!
    I’m a fan of Percy S.’s less entertaining Ozymandius, so this is just hilarious.

    Togas are fine, but where will Barry put his vibrating cell phone?

  14. NoEmptySuits, on August 28th, 2008 at 3:02 AM Said:

    The toga will have a special pocket for Obamessiah’s god phone.

    get screwed by the Daley corruption machine and

    Hi. ME. Well, the Democrats do to have a sense of humor . It’s the Obamacratic Party that never laugh–unless their little tin god is making fun of Hillary. He’s so bleeding stupid and so thuggish that he thinks breaking kneecaps is the hghest form of entertainment.
