Peace Themed Jerseys?

Does anyone know where you can buy cycling jerseys with an anti-war or
anti-Bush theme?

Hey, here's a good idea - how about a Jersey with 1,000,000 on it and then
in fine print it can say, "it's Bush's fault that Saddam Hussein killed a
million Iraqi citizens using torture."

Seems like your kind of jersey.

Yes, but my question regards a recent surge in such traffic. Of
course, any given newsfroup gets a steady feed of trolls, but in the
last couple weeks, the traffic has multiplied by whole numbers.

Either that or it's an evil conspiracy by whoever you think conspires
evilly.

Ah! You've struck the truth...it's a big evil conspiracy by The
Machine to prod opinions and personal information out of all of us.
Don't feed the troll! You're only putting yourself deeper into The
Machine!

Time for me to get cosmetic surgery and a new identity. Seeya!

A well-placed troll in a season of bad riding?

There's a jersey with a generic peace message:

Or the "ride for peace" message with a Woodstock-69 feel:

If those don't suit your fancy, you may have to settle for a cotton
tee:

Looks like Bill Clinton doesn't think that Bush lied or exaggerated.
Bill believes Saddam had WMD's right until the end.

Dumbass -

Who cares what BC thinks - read the last 2 paragraphs of your snippet:

Dumbass,

Why are you trying to engage in a rational argument about this
on Usenet? Just sit back and savor the irony: the same people
who used to call Clinton "Slick Willie," not to mention a
corrupter of the nation's moral character and a threat to our
national security, are now citing him as an authority on
Iraqi WMD, even though he hasn't gotten an intelligence briefing
in three years.




Dumbass -


You are correct.


I should not be trying to engage in a rational debate on usenet.

It's great!

We don't get off topic much here at AMB do we! :-)
