All they're missing is the matching fanny packs.

Of course. Compared to real pants, Zubaz will be easier for Republicans to take off in the bathrooms at MSP International.

Jesus Chistmas. This can't be for real, can it?

Really? I mean really?

What is the official mode of transport? The Rascal?

/I will not allow these people to make decisions regarding my future.

Zubaz are still pretty cool up der in MN, don't chya knooooow?

Seriously. I was just back there over Xmas & still saw people rockin' Zubaz.

Not dress pants with 'ease of access' flaps?

Wrapped in the flag. It ain't just a figure of speech anymore.

Seriously, I'd rather see someone burn a flag than wear it as an oversized diaper.

Makes sense I guess.

I'm more worried that you people apparently know what "zubaz" are.

Thanks to wikipedia for the explanation and the photo.

Boy, when they lost Bush and picked up McCain the gross income/class level of the party really went down, didn't it?

They're getting back to their base: Ignorant, illiterate, nationalist, mouth-breathing rednecks.

Nothing says "Not Elitist" like Zubaz!

That's fly.

Baby patriots don't need no shoes! American flag overalls are all the protection he needs! Damnit, somebody give that boy a beer!

There isn't a facepalm picture in all the intertubes big enough to cover this one.

grody.

ImOscar: Baby patriots don't need no shoes! American flag overalls are all the protection he needs! Damnit, somebody give that boy a beer!

Goddammit that's just too much!

/doubling over with laughter

What, no purple heart bandages?

skinnycatullus: Seriously, I'd rather see someone burn a flag than wear it as an oversized diaper.

I prefer to see both at once.

This can be a positive thing. If they're wearing zubaz pants, they've obviously reached the 1980s. Since they seem to have been stuck in the 50s and 60s since forever, this can only be an improvement, right?

Oh my God, pictures from the Zubazpalooza ^{(^)}.

Meet McCain's VP pick:

ˆˆˆˆˆˆ
"You Think Anyone Wants a Roundhouse Kick in the Face While I'm Wearing These Bad Boys?"

This is so full of win and fail at the same time....

Oh, crap, headline misspelled: should be "Zubaz". LOL.

well, with this guy making news this year, i guess i shouldn't be surprised.

As an aside, it's amazing to me that Clinton's campaign was so terrible that people actually came back from the dead to make it look bad.

When the postmortem on the Clinton campaign's written, Sinbad coming forward to blow the sniper fire story to Hell will be told...and that's just weird. Sinbad changed the world.

That is truly regrettable.

Flag Code section 8d.

Garments that look like the flag are against federal law.

But hey, law doesn't apply to the RNC...

FTFA: On another shirt, a donkey and an elephant hold a communal sign reading "Let's Party!"

They might as well be Bambi and Thumper, singing "Kumbaya." Come on, people, what's a convention for if not a little sartorial enemy-baiting?

I don't get it. I'm not denying that I'm a bit slow on the take from time to time, but is this shirt supposed to egg on Democrats? And weren't Bambi and Thumper friends? Isn't Kumbaya supposed to be about unity? How is this "enemy-baiting? And whatever archangel of patriotism that'll be wearing this will have it topped off (or bottomed off, as it is) with zubaz? WTF is going on here?

I think fark is going to have a shiatload of new cliches and fail pics to toss around after this convention.

Or 8j, now that I read it again...

It's still an improvement over the fashion accessories from the last Republican convention:

FTFA:RNC rolls out some pretty noninflammatory gear

I find that very inflammatory. I am quite insulted by the use of the American flag for such a stupid farking reason as to 'appear' patriotic.

Well, Zubaz is a MN company, so I guess it makes a tiiiiny bit of sense.

After all, America needs party pants! (new window)

Zubaz? Evidently the RNC has adopted a pro-abortion platform.

What'a a Zubas?

*click*

Oh God! Kill it! Kill it with fire!

I really think us liberals need to donate some gay men to the Republican party, just so things like... this... don't happen again.

Bloody William: I really think us liberals need to donate some gay men to the Republican party, just so things like... this... don't happen again.

Haven't you been paying attention to the news? They have plenty. Unfortunately, they happen to be all the ones with bad fashion sense. Perhaps if they would just come out of the closet, they could get a better look at the clothes that are inside the closet.

Curious... When that baby craps his pants, will the NRA rush in and beat the shiat out of him?

i'm still waiting for a steve guttenberg related story

burndtdan: i'm still waiting for a steve guttenberg related story

Have the Stonecutters endorsed Clinton? Uh oh...

So the republican party is hoping to win over the votes of that guy at the gym who tries to bench press too much?

Lenny_da_Hog: Curious... When that baby craps his pants, will the NRA rush in and beat the shiat out of him?

Not after he puts his shiatty pants on neighbor cats head and farks it ten ways to Friday! Goddamnit I love this country!

YEEEEE HAAAAAW!

unlikely: Flag Code section 8d.

Luckily for them there's no punishment associated with violating the flag code... ironically, unless the RNC succeeds in getting McCain elected.

oh man. someone please post the "I'm detecting concentrations of win in this sector" image stat!

And they did this at the MALL of AMERICA?

How farking tacky.
