My costume is a Republican. Would love some suggestions...
Apparently, Im going to a Halloween party tommorow where costumes are mandatory. Im not really the costuming type, so this seems like an easy, cheap laugh.

What comes to mind is a "Lost Job, Will work for oil, young boys, lobbyists..." sign, maybe a nametag that says "(R)epublican, US."
Something along those lines, though I do feel shitty about the homeless aspect of it.

So i came here to get some pointers from the wittier DUers, if you will...

5. You're not flexible enough to walk around with your head up your ass, right?
So here's what you do. Go rent a tuxedo. Then go to the nearest tobacconist and buy a cigar that's at least 10 inches long. Don't smoke this cigar; this is for visual effect. Drink nothing but martinis. Don't drink them out of an empty quart mayonnaise jar, like you usually do. Rather, drink them straight out of the shaker--being sure to tell people that "pouring them into glasses bruises the gin." Act real snooty all night.

Also, make up and print out a stack of prospectuses for the "George W. Bush Memorial Orphanage and Debtor's Prison." Pass these out to everyone you see. When someone points out that Dubya isn't dead, remind them the Navy named a whole aircraft carrier after Dipshit's father, and Bush 41's not dead either.

8. I remember going to a super cool Halloween party in Hollywood
years ago and these guys came in wearing Nixon, Ford, and Regan masks. Everyone just loved them and yelled at them in a fun sort of way (why did you spy on the Dems, why do you fall down so much, and why are you shipping cocain into the usa). People just clustered around them, and the poor guy dressed like a TV set was pushed out into the hallway.

12. Wrap yourself in the flag,
add a (pool toy) bomb to one shoulder, carry a cross that says"God speaks to me!" on it, and be sure to throw a lot of money around that's marked "From the Taxpayers" and "Free Money!".

19. You can put little slogans on your costume like:
"Legitimate elections? We don't need no stinkin' legitimate elections...We're Republicans!"
"I can't think, therefore I watch Fox News."
"Do you enjoy graft, fraud, corruption, torture, and pages? Then Vote Republican!"

20. How about a pig suit?
Wrapped in an American flag, holding a bible and a roll of toilet paper with the Constitution printed on it.

21. Go to Goodwill and pick up a leisure suit
and a four-dollar toupee.

At the party, say nothing but stuff like "Freedom is on the march" and "Working hard to put food on your families."

22. Gotta carry a bible or a fake bible that
references only homosexuality and abortion. Make a fake business card to hand out saying..Holier Than Thou Inc...I sin so you don't have to.
