Have you seen this piece of work? What are they afraid of, the truth?

You gotta love the NRA Chicks. Inside the Beltway has this:

“Heels and Handguns”

“It's the second annual Shooting for Women Conference, which will be held Thursday through Sunday in Arizona and feature "loads of range time, pajama party, self-defense classes, fashion show."

Inside the Beltway also has this interesting piece: (excerpts)

What's a thong? President Franklin D. Roosevelt would be shocked to find the Social Security Act he signed into law in 1935 emblazoned on women's underwear — thongs, no less.

Lisa De Pasquale, program director of the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute, issued a memo on behalf of the women's group against "I Love Social Security" thongs. She feels that on the heels of other left-wing groups' hysteria over Social Security reform, the Rock the Vote campaign is misinforming a whole new generation of young people. "How do you make an apathetic generation care about Social Security?" she asks. "Sell trucker hats and thongs emblazoned with 'I Love Social Security.' "


Besides underwear, Rock the Vote has issued a list of reasons why young people should oppose Social Security reform, including that the current system is "retro chic," "politicians want to trick you," and it's better to "visit your grandparents — at their house" because "before Social Security, for most families, all the generations lived under one roof."

"This is how Rock the Vote views their constituency — a bunch of ditsy victims who don't want to live with their grandparents," Miss De Pasquale says.”

I say we fight fire with fire. We sell thongs that say “I want to keep the money I make.” Or even better....."Private accounts Rock!” Or...."I want my money to be there even when I can no longer wear this thong with any dignity.”

Although that may be a tad long for a thong….;-)
