Nous sommes desoles que notre president soit un idiot

by Volker Weber

Care instructions on a laptop bag made my Tom Bihn in the Pacific North-West: Nous sommes desoles que notre president soit un idiot. Nous n'avons pas vote pour lui. (We are sorry that our President is an idiot. We didn't vote for him.') That part of the country is not exactly Bush-friendly:

Someone (probably one of you) just emailed us to let us know about this. Thanks for your support. I was wondering when someone would notice the tag. My idea to put that on the care label was inspired by these t-shirts. I just hope that not too many people notice. I'm going to have nightmares about this ending up on Drudge!

Too late, I guess.

But on the other hand he proudly notes that his bags made it to Iraq:

How lame!! What a wimp!!
He wants to make some kind of statement, but does not have the balls to put it in English so that the great majority of his customers will actually read it.
And if you go to his site, there is a forum, but no other way to communicate electronically. You have to register for the forum, too. No thanks.
I do need a good bag for my gear, but I will certainly not be buying from him. And I would recommend others not to as well.

Good idea - I loved it!
Wish I had such a way to express myself as well.
Wonder if this will drive up the price of the bag at some point (as the demand for them increases)? ;-}

great, just great, yoou have put a statement just were THEY can't reach it, in the world of the informed and the intelligent.

I want to say that I love my President. He is a Godly man who tries to run this huge nation that is so self-destructive and selfish. He is doing great and I will vote for him again. He has done nothing wrong and has tried to protect us and follows God's standards. We need more Christ-following politicians.

This just says what idiots you are. Most other people could understand French (in UK, for example)

"I want to say that I love my President."

Sarah H,
I'd like to tell how your president and your country is seen by the rest of the world. But I fear you wouldn't unterstand...

love it! Love the comments too. Christian politicians indeed...

C'est amusant parce que les americans ne comprennent ni le sac ni qu'ils sont controllés par des idiots dans une grande maison blanche!

Vive le reste du monde!
