The newest from KB Toys.

Elite Force Aviator - George W Bush - U.S. President and Naval Aviator

Read more about this travesty, and since KB Toys wants to know what you think of their new action figure, be sure to tell them.

My comments included:
Heroic? He walked away from his right to earn that title, and his right to wear military uniform, when he walked out on his National Guard service almost 30 years ago, while other, unluckier young men were over dying in Vietnam. He's more a pretender to that uniform than someone who was never in the military, because he vowed to do his duty for his country, then turned around and knowingly broke that vow.

This looks like a cheesy, tacky campaign gimmick, a la Jesse Ventura. The copy even reads like a Bush White House press release! Is the KB Toys board filled with members of Bush's "re-election" team or something?

This product is utterly disgusting, and I'm appalled that you'd even consider something like this. If you go through with this sales campaign, I'll no longer be shopping at KB Toys, and I'll do my best to make sure as many people as possible know why.
