The Unmissed


Truthdig - Reports - A Farewell to the ‘Hillary Nutcracker’ and Other Obscenities: "WASHINGTON—As the Democratic nomination contest slouches toward a close, it’s time to take stock of what I will not miss.

I will not miss seeing advertisements for T-shirts that bear the slogan “Bros before Hos.” The shirts depict Barack Obama (the Bro) and Hillary Clinton (the Ho), and they are widely sold on the Internet.

I will not miss walking past airport concessions selling the Hillary Nutcracker, a device in which a pantsuit-clad Clinton doll opens her legs to reveal stainless steel thighs that, well, bust nuts. I won’t miss television and newspaper stories that make light of the novelty item..."

Amen, sister.

Update: A picture in honor of commenter billy pilgrim-- always an inspiration!

that hillary nutcracker sounds like it could be a real collector's item.

do they give a certificate of authenticity with each nutcracker?

Probably (unless you're looking for a "used by Hillary" certificate, which would be interesting). I was surfing around and saw one for sale the other day.
