In the wake of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, the American public has responded in an unprecedented way with an outpouring of support for the victims of this tragic event. Over the past two weeks, the American public has also voiced support for our President. The comments can be best summarized as ``I Stand With President Bush.''
As a result of this sentiment, Spalding Group has produced several items which express support for the President, including an ``I Stand With President Bush'' bumper sticker. Spalding Group will give away one million of these bumper stickers.
``The public has never been more united in their support of a President than they are today of President Bush. Spalding Group has received hundreds of calls and inquiries from people seeking to express their support for the President. A symbol as simple as a bumper sticker provides a way for individuals to outwardly express what they feel about President Bush's leadership'' said Ted Jackson, President of Spalding's parent company, English Emprise.
Individuals wanting a bumper sticker need only send a self-addressed stamped envelope and Spalding Group will forward a bumper sticker FREE. Anyone placing an order on-line will receive a free bumper sticker along with the order.
Spalding Group will post the number of bumper stickers given away on-line at www.georgewbushstore.com so the public will know when one million bumper stickers have been distributed.
Spalding Group, a division of English Emprise, is a marketing and licensing company that served as licensee to the George W. Bush for President Campaign and currently owns and maintains the domain name www.georgewbushstore.com. Spalding Group is an independent business with no ties to the administration or the Republican National Committee.

A blue blooded patriotic American is walking along the beach and comes upon a magical lamp that has washed ashore. Naturally he picks it up and rubs it for good luck. To his amazement an Afghani genie pops out.
The Afghani genie says "You have 3 wishes of anything you want, but I must warn you, every Afghani gets twice as much" So the American scratches his forehead and says OK, I know what my first wish is...I want a 20 bedroom house right here on this beach. The genie says fine, but every Afghani gets a 40 bedroom house on the beach as well. No problem says the American.
So waht's your next wish asks the genie. The American says "I want 100 million dollars in cash !!" No problem says the genie, but remember, every Afghani gets 200 million in cash. No problem says the American.
OK, so what is your third and final wish asks the genie.
The American scratches his head for a few seconds and then says "BEAT ME HALF TO DEATH!!"
Anyway - my request for the bumper sticker will go out in the mail tomorrow.
SPALDING!
Seriously, this is very cool. My order's out the door tomorrow.
Thank you sooooo much for pinging me to this and doing this thread Utah Girl.
