An "Outsourced Barbie" for sale on eBay
My daughter just sent me this auction listing

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5577928579&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:1

I guess I have to wonder if the seller is a DUer, they sure sound passionate !!

2. How interesting! I'll bet since this hot babe will work for food..
she comes with a glass ceiling between her ears..What else (including outsourcing) could hold back an honest to goodness American bombshell?

7. Sad that this country no longer supports its workers!
:(

Before long, we will be working for much
less than we are now and without insurance
unless the majority finally wakes up!

Retirement is a lost dream.

8. It comes with a small bird's nest?

Good listing, though. People never cease to amaze me with their ingenuity.

I find it encouraging when I find protests in unexpected places.

9. Glad to see this...
maybe it will get some Corporate Media coverage...okay so maybe not! But I will try and send it to a few people and also post it a couple of places-it needs to be seen and heard!
