The symbol for Republicans is the Elephant, and the Democrats is the Donkey.
I propose the symbol for liberals still blaming Palin, et al, for the AZ shooting is the iRenew Energy Bracelet.
For those who do not have or watch TV, there is a commercial running for the bracelet in which they demonstrate its technological ability to give you, among other things, physical stability. The announcer walks up behind a person standing with their hands clasped behind them, and tries to pull them to the floor by grabbing their hands and pulling toward the floor. Naturally the person, unsuspecting of the coming action, is knocked off balance.
Next they put the bracelet on the person and try it again. This time the person knows what’s coming and is prepared for it – and does not stumble. Instant Stability!
The announcer says it is obviously the bracelet! A technological marvel, and they will mail you two for $19.95. (Plus S&H)
iRenew, carefully make no scientific claims, just anecdotal information that the bracelet has just demonstrated its abilities and is worn by many athletes. When recently sued, they admitted they have absolutely no scientific evidence. They have offered to return anyone’s money who asks for it, knowing that few will – they are either too embarrassed to admit they were fooled and will throw the bracelet away, or they will actually “believe” it helps them.
If they believe it, it probably will help them – it is the placebo effect. Think copper bracelets.
The liberals on this blog are among those people, still believing in a discredited concept for which they ADMIT they have no proof – and one where the rest of the public either initially discounted as fraud on its face, or now, with further information, has abandoned the product.
What we have left of the left, are “bitter-clingers” wearing iRenew Energy Bracelets.
