Crocs have been given the presidential seal of approval but this is not necessarily a good thing.

George W. Bush was photographed recently in a pair of black Crocs -- Cayman style, $29.99 -- as he was heading out from the White House to ride his bike. He wore the clunky resin clogs -- which have ventilation holes and a heel strap -- with a pair of black shorts, a white camp shirt, a baseball cap with the image of an unidentified Scottish terrier and black bike socks imprinted with the presidential seal.


Seeing anyone wearing them mostly makes me want to puke. Now I know I'm a little more uptight about fashion than a lot of people, for instance I think manufacturing short sleeve dress shirts should be a crime punishable by death, but really. Is there someone, somewhere who thinks plastic shoes with little holes in them look ok?

Then I discovered this:


Could they have been in a goodie bag at the May fundraiser for the Virginia Republican Party, which, according to the Associated Press, Crocs Chairman Rick Sharp hosted and Bush attended?


I knew it. The GOP's version of Birkenstocks look like **** and are made out of, but of course, petroleum products.

Insideous to the core.

You know, the more I think about it, the funnier it would be to see Cheney in a pair of crocs. I don't think I'd ever stop laughing. He would, of course, look angry that he was wearing them the whole time.

My dad recently bought a bright red pair, wears 'em everywhere.

Oddly enough, we're both liberals. Hmm...

My fiance suggested I get a pair of those. She's now tied up in the basement of my apartment building.

Burning rubber Crocs will instantly rip a hole in the ozone layer the size of Jupiter. You sure you don't want to just bury em in they yard so they can decompose after a few hundred thousand years?

Since he seems to like the trendy footwear, I think we should send him a pair of heelies for Christmas. Anyone know his size?
