President Bush Doll Sells Out

LOS ANGELES — A President Bush doll that says "We're working hard to put food on your family'' and "I will not hold this nation hostile'' has turned into a huge hit for a small company.

The 12.5-inch-tall likeness, which features clips from Bush speeches and campaign stops, sold out a first shipment of 12,000 this week. A second shipment of the $29.99 doll won't arrive until after Christmas.

"We anticipated it being a very popular item but we just didn't think it was going to take off that quick,'' said Jim Wessling, co-founder of Irvine-based Talking Presidents.com Inc.

Most of the 17 sound clips are straightforward quotes about the war on terrorism and other topics — such as "Terrorism against our nation will not stand'' — although the doll does utter some of Bush's malapropisms.

"There's nothing derogatory, everything is complimentary, there's nothing to make fun of him ... (but) the doll is a good representation of the president, there are two or three of his Bushisms,'' Wessling said.

You live in the heart of a sewing circle?

Or in a time warp where phonographs are still the rage and phono needles have to be replaced regularly?

sold out
guilty. I bought them all because I was afraid that otherwise the terrorists would see it as a sign of weakness in our leadership and use that to win the WoT.

You may now all thank me for winning the WoT for TEAM AMERICA. You owe me one.
