Dolce & Gabbana has nothing on Biden & Pelosi when it comes to the latest fashions. The Vice President and the Speaker of the House are now sporting colorful new bracelets to protest Arizona’s anti-illegal alien law.
HotAir.com explains that this new liberal fashion trend was developed by California Democrat Congressman Joe Baca:
As part of his general boycott of Arizona — which includes his refusal to fly through Phoenix on his weekly trips to and from Washington — Baca, D-Rialto, is distributing wristbands inspired by the Lance Armstrong LiveSTRONG craze.
Baca put in an order for 2,500 of his version, which will be red, yellow and blue — the colors of Arizona’s flag — to be worn as a show of solidarity against the controversial law…In Washington, Baca has gotten House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and most members of the Democratic leadership to wear them, as they did — along with golfing legend Chi Chi Rodriguez — at a recent fundraiser for Baca. Baca said his office is fielding calls from people inquiring how they can get one of the wristbands.
“Everyone wants them,” Baca said. “They’re going like hot potatoes.”
And that, Joe, is what you call a Freudian slip. We’re pretty sure Baca meant to say, “They’re going like hot cakes” because the definition of a hot potato is “A problem that is so controversial or sensitive that those handling it risk unpleasant consequences.”
With every poll showing overwhelming support for the Arizona law, these stupid wrist bands are definitely hot potatoes.

And he SURE couldn't say 'HOT TAMALES' because those sweating mexicans that are crossing the border illegally are his constituents.
Rep Caca says "they're selling like seats in a hundred degree truck like the one I came in on" ....
Word on the street is the bracelet-o's do not come with instructions and Plugs and Pill-osi took hours putting them on over their heads .....
lovely just lovely
Hopefully they'll get to wear a pair of shiney chrome bracelets someday for the unconstitutional laws that they rammed through. This is a big f-ing deal.
THOSE TWO DOUCHEBAGS SHOULD CHOKE THEMSELVES WITH THOSE BRACELETS! THERE, I SAID WHAT EVERYONE ELSE WAS THINKING!
