CaitParticipantI went to my favorite home away from home, Metro Market, this evening and bought a 4-pack of Yes We Can Cola by Jones Soda with Barack Obama’s face on it. I thought “Heck yes! Thank you Jones Soda for allowing me to support my candidate with soda even though none of the profits are going to him!” I got it home… turned it around… and found that the other side was PURE McCAIN COLA!!!! What the deuce?!
So I figured, OK, maybe there are two Yes We Can Colas and two Pure McCain Colas per case in the name of fairness. NO! DEFINITELY NOT! ALL OF THEM WERE PURE MCCAIN COLAS! The only thing Obama about the whole pack was the front panel with his face on it!!! The only side visible in the display!!!
I’m POed. I had some awesome MySpace pictures planned with my bottles of Yes We Can Cola. *sigh* On a positive note, the cola itself is GREAT! It’s kinda spicy… SPICY WITH FASCISM!!! *harrumph*

CaitParticipantI bet that’s where NR has been. Switching the sodas at Metro Market. I KID!
I’m still mad. Every time I take a sip, it angers me.

ellenaterMemberyou need a cupcake. AN Obama cake would make you feel better and would go well with your righty soda. Then you could be as balanced as a zen master.

CaitParticipantEllenater – ooooo… I like that idea. :) You gotta line on some Obama cupcakes?

Mebbe you need to spike it with something, Cait! ;)

cjboffoliParticipantI was up at Trophy Cupcakes in Wallingford the other day and noticed they had Obama cupcakes. They were very professionally done too. The woman told me that the Obama image was silk screened into the frosting with edible ink.

KenParticipantThe Zen Master said to the hot dog vendor, “Make me one with everything?”
The hot dog vendor hands him one with everything.
The Zen master hands him a $20 bill and the vendor pockets it.
“What about my change?” asked the Zen master.
The hot dog vendor says, “Change must come from within.”

CountingCoupMemberCait,
I’m surprised they didn’t put the McCain colas over in the wine section across the aisle…
You know, in the sour grapes section.
……….drum roll………..cymbal!

cjboffoliParticipantCountingCoup: I thought you were angling for something in the way of a ancient vintage joke.
Cait: I think at the end of the day the greatest conspiracy is that they’re charging four bucks for a carton of sugared water.

CaitParticipantCounting: I LOVE IT!
CJ: I think the price of Jones Soda is both conspiracy AND fascism. Agreed!
And Miws: PREACH IT! I’m tryin’ to wait for tomorrow. Halloween did a real number on my alcohol-processing organs so I’m trying to give them a break until I black out tomorrow.

austinMemberThe price of election cola isn’t so bad, back when 7-11 was doing promo for the simpsons movie they were charging something like eight bucks for one six pack of cans of Buzz cola. I bought two. :/

SarahScootParticipantUmmmmmm… *embarrassed look* maybe there originally were two Pure McCain colas and two Yes We Can colas per pack, but some people only want Yes We Can cola and therefore switch out two Pure McCains for two Yes We Cans… only because it was clear many others had already done the same. *Looks around innocently* What do they expect when they package them in those open cartons in a very democratic area? I have a feeling a bunch of Pure McCain cola will be left all alone on election night.

ellenaterMemberCait,
Cupcake Royale had ’em in the primaries. But I remember hearing Clinton’s was chocolate and that is just wrong. Obama is chocolate. Always has been, always will be.
…as far as the soda, you can doodle on McCain’s face. That might be fun.
