Incremental Socialism at work. Now even our toys have gone global.

For me, G.I Jow will always be “A real American Hero.”

***Hasbro, which makes GI Joe toys,***

Hasbro’s attempt to get boys to playing with dolls like little girls was the reason for the GI JOE doll. Yes, DOLL.

I can’t really recall Cobra’s motivations on the old comic books but what do you bet Hollywood will make them as close to Republicans as they possibly can?

There is a chain of sporting goods stores around here that has always been called “G.I.Joe’s”. The other day I noticed that they have changed their name to “Joe’s”.

G.I. Joe is every American. It is the American Soldier from WWII to today, it's origin is uniquely American. Dear Hollywood, by going globalist, you are insulting all Americans again. All I can say to you is "nuts" and I hope your movie bombs...

This is all about $$$ for the overseas movie distribution. If they were smart, they would leave it American GI Joe for domestic audiences, and change it in the foreign language dubs. It isn’t as if the Chinese, Indians or Japanese do a direct translation on their movies.

When you try to please everybody you end up pleasing no one.

The GI Joe fansites have debunked this a while back when it first showed up. If this was printed in a recent headline, then the mainstreams are about 3 months late, as the story was on the GI Joe sites a while back and seems to have been false.

As for Destro, he’s always been a Scot.

I really wish Free Republic would go back to being about Our Country and our Constitution. I really hate seeing a title on the main page, clicking into it because of my interests, and find out it’s from the UK some bleeping where.

Who gives a rat’s rear end what those socialists have to think/say about anything...

In a move that has horrified an unlikely alliance of comic book fans and conservative commentators, GI Joe is now to become an acronym for "Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity", with its star representing a multinational force.

In the spirit of appreciating the morphing of GI Joe to a globalist, I present to you GI Jill!

Might need to change the lyrics to that old theme song a bit.

Fight for global consensus wherever theres discourse, GI Joe may use diplomacy! GI JOE!

And a new team chant too.

Proceeed with caution and respect for all JOE!
