Rather striking isn't it. The convention logo makers had the balls to show their pachyderm running down our Liberty! And she has a huge tear dropping from her eye.

I hope she's strong enough to withstand their onslaught.

fyi and in tribute to the animal:

Under the Endangered Species Act, the African elephant is listed as a threatened species and the Asian elephant is listed as an endangered species. "Endangered" means a species is considered in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range, and "threatened" means a species is considered in danger of becoming endangered. This protection prohibits elephant parts and products from being imported into the United States except under certain conditions.

In addition, elephants are protected under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), an agreement among more than 120 nations to eliminate illegal trade in animals and plants, such as elephants, and their parts and associated products. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is the federal agency responsible for the U.S. government's compliance with the CITES treaty.

The African Elephant Conservation Act of 1988 prohibits the import of raw or worked ivory into the U.S., with certain exceptions. It also set up a grant program to fund elephant conservation efforts.

In June 1989, the U.S. government imposed a ban on commercial importation of African elephant ivory into the country. This led to a commercial ivory trade ban being adopted by all CITES member nations later in 1989.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service also supports elephant conservation efforts in other countries through funding and technical assistance that includes resource management, research, and education.

6. Too bad the worldwide Elephant Community can't stampede bush's ranch or

at the very least sue his butt off for tainting their image. He's already pissed off the Iraqi athletes and the Olympic Committee by using their images - some illegally.

What really needs to be done is for the actual Republicans - who are they anymore? - to run their own stampede and take back the party.
