The toast looks more like Madonna of "Like a Virgin" fame.

Maybe eBay is afraid Mother Sheehan will camp outside their offices, like she did to the Washington Post when they published something she didn't approve of.

So...what was the high bid? Last I saw it was only $28. Way short of the toast or the runaway bride kits.

It's definitely Marlene Dietrich. LOL


I'd love to dunk it in a bowl of "Lili Marlene" brand tomato soup.

This is very telling in a number of ways:

BuyBlue.org's Rating:

(What do the ratings mean?)

Rating: Light Blue - 57 %

BuyBlue.org's Position:

eBay currently has a 57% BuyBlue rating due to political contributions for the 2003-2004 election cycle. eBay presents an interesting situation for us to analyze. eBay's chairman and his spouse contributed almost exclusively and heavily Democratic in the past election cycle. eBay's CEO Margaret Whitman contributed heavily and nearly exclusively Republican. eBay also has a political action committee which contributed $121,254 (36.00% D, 64.00% R) during the last election cycle.

Therefore, eBay barely makes the cut and weighs in as a light blue company. Perhaps it is time for the progressive community to loudly call for Whitman's resignation and to demand that ebay get a handle on their PAC spending.

Please Note: As of 2/6/2005 the status of apolitical corporations has changed. Please click here for more details.

Maybe Whitman is trying to hold on to her job.

Aren't liberals great? So tolerant.

I found the same page also. I guess a few libs complained and they pulled it. I figure Mother Cindy and her shakedown cohorts would want a piece of the profits for selling it.

The Left are despots and feel their limited grasp on power slipping.

Was it making fun of the Virgin Mary? I thought it was supposed to be like the other "sightings" of her.
