Tie a brown ribbon....
This sounds like a damn fine idea.
Are you embarrassed by the arrogance, greed, shortsightedness, selfishness, and outright lies told by George W. Bush and his administration?Join tens of thousands of others across the country and world and wear a brown armband or ribbon to symbolize all the BS coming out of the White House.
It's not just that I disagree with the current dministration. I'm outraged. And I'm downright embarrassed to talk to anyone from another country. I'm embarassed to have an President so arrogant, so dishonest, so hawkish, that in three years, he has nearly destroyed any good relations we had before he took office, and worsened those that were already bad.
I find myself apologizing to my foreign friends both in this country and abroad while trying vainly to explain the sheer idiocy and illogic of the current administration's policies.
So this April 1st, April Fools day, join tens of thousands of others who are wearing brown armbands or ribbons to signify the bullshit flowing down from Washington.

I am an American living in Canada. Can I wear one? One good thing about the armband is that when the smell of bullshit gets too strong, you can hear over your nose like a muffler.

This sounds like a great idea. I'm going to tell everyone I know to wear a brown armband on April 1. Perfect.

I'll see your brown armband, and raise you!
I am sick of seeing all of those frelling yellow ribbons up on the trees all around me. I think I'll be putting some brown ones up on the trees in front of my houses over the weekend.
