"Asses of Evil" pins - anyone seen them?
From the Kerry blog - anyone seen these pins?

The "Mother" of All House Parties

"The East Bay for Kerry/MoveOn House party on December 7th combined the forces of two grass-roots organizations based in San Francisco East Bay Area. We had 200 guests eating, drinking, and watching the MoveOn Documentary “Uncovered” featuring Joseph Wilson and Rand Beers from the Kerry campaign.

When Teresa Heinz-Kerry arrived, she handed me a pin that read in the center: “Asses of Evil” with “Bush”, “Cheney”, “Rumsfeld” and “Ashcroft” surrounding it. She met, greeted and talked to a jam-packed room of Kerry supporters and others who came for the MoveOn documentary. Many were curious, others undecided, or belonging to other candidate camps.

Teresa talked about her life as the daughter of a physician in Africa, about life during a repressive regime, to life inside Washington DC, and a brief intimate glimpse into her courtship with John. She told a rapt crowd about how they met and their first date, and that he did not call again for six months, adding, “He was slow on the uptake”. Just as she was about to add more to the story, the phone rang. It was the Senator."

3. Dunno, but they would sell like hotcakes
I have had several people ask me today where to find them. Kerry's campaign could make a bundle off them.

5. This may be a source.
Found on the website http://www.blog.johnkerry.com/cgi-bin/mt-comments.cgi?entry_id=871

was this message:

I am proud to say the ASSES OF EVIL buttons were my doing. I gave a couple to Teresa when she came to Wisconsin to open our campaign headquarters. I asked her to give one to John also.
Lo and behold, a few weeks later, our HQ got a call from her asking for me to send a shipment.
Now that we've made the blog, the rest will be history.
If you want those pins, I'll send you some for a couple bucks each. I think that will cover postage too. Send me an email!
