Whoops, 2012 GOP Convention Logo Is Pretty Mosquey

by Jack Stuef  

Sharks are no longer the only terrorists around here.The 2012 Republican National Convention is going to be held in Tampa Bay! That must be the first nominating convention to ever be held underwater. Will Trig be attacked by sharks? Probably. But more importantly, the logo of the host committee for the event features a minaret, the Muslin version of a Twin Tower. Minarets are part of Tampa’s architecture, you see, because the Old Tampa Bay Hotel, a notable part of the skyline, was built in the “Moorish Revival” style. In other words, the Muslins have built a GIANT MOSQUE to ruin our most patriotic of events, the Republican convention. Save us, Newt!

But shouldn’t Republicans be more concerned with this giant red communist palm tree? Cubans live in Florida and are America’s Good Mexicans, because they escaped to capitalism. Has Fidel Castro forced his people to engineer a giant robot palm tree to destroy the leadership of our once and future majority party?

The Muslins have built this mosque just to distract us from their secret terrorist coalition with Cuba. It’s amazing they have any time to worship, because they are constantly doing terrorism. [TPM]

The name of the University of Tampa’s newspaper is “The Minaret” and their logo is a minaret topped with a crescent moon.

I thought it was Starro, ejecting some unknown fluid.

Texan Bulldoggette August 11, 2010 at 11:47 am

Wonder how much Michael Steele paid to have that done because I could have gotten my 14 year old neighbor to do something snazzier with some clip art & the free Paint app.

madtowngooner August 11, 2010 at 11:49 am

That’s not a Minaret, that’s a spade and they’re gonna call a spade a spade just to show they aren’t racialists

Holybalheadedchrist August 11, 2010 at 11:52 am

Where is fancy bred, in the heart, or in the head? Now, back to editing Conservapedia.

freakishlystrong August 11, 2010 at 11:53 am

I was wondering if they were going to get around to that! Hah! Not to worry, most Rethugs will be out at all the sleazy strip joints that litter Tampa. It’ll help the jobs situation here; seeing as they’ll have to hire out of work construction guys for that week.

13ollocks To The Rules August 11, 2010 at 11:54 am

It looks like a giant glowing mutant radioactive palm tree (Palmzilla?) has risen out of the ocean to savage that unsuspecting metropolis. In 2012. Dates that will live in infamy.

edgydrifter August 11, 2010 at 11:55 am

They must have misread it as “Boorish Revival” architecture and figured they’d fit right in.

JMP August 11, 2010 at 11:59 am

It’ll be fun seeing the Repubs spewing off their normal racist rhetoric against the 14th Amendment in a city filled with Latinos.

MarieDeGournay August 11, 2010 at 11:59 am

[re=636488]norbizness[/re]: Alien face huggers getting everyone to think the same destructive thoughts? Huh, explains the GOP.

MissyLissa August 11, 2010 at 12:00 pm

They went with the UT outline to show Tampa? Disappointed. They should have used the skyline of strip club lane featuring 2001 Odyssey which has a UFO on the top of the building where you can get private dances.

That is the Tampa that people will think of and remember, not the scene from Riverwalk.

I can say this because I live in Clearwater. Close enough to Tampa to take advantage of the museums and restaurants. Far enough away to avoid the STD’s.

SlouchingTowardsWasilla August 11, 2010 at 12:09 pm

If Trig wasn’t meant to be attacked by sharks, then why was he made of meat?

comicbookguy August 11, 2010 at 12:11 pm

Plz understand peac-lovin publicans, ths delibrat provocation stabs hearts. kthx

bago August 11, 2010 at 12:12 pm

Who wants to be “the strippers handing out flyers outside of the con”? Fun times, I promise.

PrimlyStable August 11, 2010 at 12:17 pm

I imagine this will result in Faux News producing a map that shows Egypt nestled just south of Georgia.

Sparky McGruff August 11, 2010 at 12:17 pm

[re=636508]MissyLissa[/re]: I don’t know if you’re really far enough away; you might want to use protection just to be safe.

comicbookguy August 11, 2010 at 12:17 pm

They can have a Republican convention in Tampa when churches are allowed in Saudi Arabia.

just pixels August 11, 2010 at 12:19 pm

Settle down sheeple. The Republicans have a Constitutional right to stab the hearts of 9/11 families having their pilgrimage in Mosque City Florida.

Anyway there is plenty of room in their “big tent” for Americas of all kinds. HA HA, just kidding. Only the “right” people* are welcome in the tribal tent.

[re=636508]MissyLissa[/re]: Unless they’ll be underage boys dancing in the strip clubs, I don’t see that many Repubs patronizing them. Just saying.

El Pinche August 11, 2010 at 12:21 pm

Yeah, well thats not a palm tree. It’s a SAM (Surface to Air Missile for you libtards) blowin up airborned moslems.

Maus August 11, 2010 at 12:21 pm

Hrmmm, betcha the Scientologist elite bus it on over from Clearwater for lobbying purposes.

Baby who ate the Dingo August 11, 2010 at 12:21 pm

They probably need to send “Cornholio” Quayle to Tampa to open a new eazt coazt version of thedirty.com. Then start a race riot between the “Haves” and “Haves But Wants Yours, Too.”

BobTheBuilder August 11, 2010 at 12:23 pm

If Tom Tancredo hadn’t left the GOP, this wouldn’t have happened.

Botswana Meat Commission FC August 11, 2010 at 12:23 pm

Funny story, I used to do marketing work for a real estate investment “guru” (try not to barf) and for some bizarre reason 99% of his Facebook/Twitter followers were born-again Christian house flippers from Tampa. They would constantly post crazy shit about how G-D was going make them all millionaires if they could just think positive.

The deep-fried kookery runs deep down there….

Baby who ate the Dingo August 11, 2010 at 12:24 pm

I predict that Space Jeebus will ride in on Roger Ramjet’s uhhh ramjet.

facehead August 11, 2010 at 12:25 pm

The terrorists have clearly won Florida, but we were all prepared to make that sacrifice.

Merkin Muffley August 11, 2010 at 12:28 pm

This logo is sorely lacking Tampa’s most significant piece of architecture…Mons Venus.

queeraselvis v 2.0 August 11, 2010 at 12:29 pm

[re=636523]BlueStateLiberal[/re]: Nope. More than likely, they’ll all be here.

Okie Dokie Dog August 11, 2010 at 12:36 pm

Why aren’t they having their convention in the HEARTLAND of America, with all the REAL Patriot Merkins that vote for them? Because it’s all land-locked? No girls in bikinis on sandy beaches? Well let me tell you, we gotz plenty o’gentlemen’s clubs and strip joints. Our girls can do the lap dances just as well as those Cuban Messicans! We got the golf club greenery places. We got mega big box Baptists churches! We got WalMarts!

Wait… on second thought, let Florida have them. We gotz enough crap here.

One Yield Regular August 11, 2010 at 12:53 pm

Mosque – check. 5-pointed red star – check. Face of Satan? Can we get a face of Satan, please?

ella August 11, 2010 at 1:02 pm

All that’s missing is a crescent moon.

Baby who ate the Dingo August 11, 2010 at 1:11 pm

Actual quote from Newt and one of his many wives…[parts by another wife]

Rediscovering God In America II: Our Heritage, hosted by Newt and Callista [Callgrrl][Hester Pryne]Gingrich, explores the role of religion in early America [no butt secks unless the sheep could cook]and the belief that “our Creator” [his penis]is the source of our [underwear] liberty, prosperity [I got the house, bastard toadflax], and survival [thank Gawd he wasn't near so fat when we did the horizontal bop] as an exceptional nation [of fat idiots that ask people to marry them before asking the prior wives for a divorce like most good Republicans do].

From the first permanent English settlement at Jamestown in 1607, through the American Revolution, to the end of the Civil War in 1865, this film tells the story of the deep faith that motivated and sustained our great leaders, and dramatically presents our nation’s belief in religious freedom. [Especially the part 'bout American Literature and "The Scarlet Letter."]

Shot in high definition at historic locations including Jamestown, Philadelphia, Boston, Mount Vernon, and Gettysburg, Rediscovering God In America II: Our Heritage offers fresh historical perspectives from experts, historians, and authors, [and Newt's usual Serial Liars Club founders]including Douglas “Chet was not my Dad” Brinkley, Allen “No joke here; my last name is “Oz Glue rederanged” Guelzo, and Michael “Bob was not my Dad” Novak.

I met Newt once, and he had the smallest hands I have ever seen on a primate. Which of course means a teeny peeny. Which explains a lot.

Sharkey August 11, 2010 at 1:30 pm

Would you PLEASE stop calling me a terrorist.

Oblios Cap August 11, 2010 at 1:45 pm

Quick. Somebody call Michelle Malkin. This deserves OUTRAGE!

Broken Malice Machine August 11, 2010 at 1:57 pm

Haha some chickens return home to roost. As for Trig and sharks..why do you think Snowbilly carries him with her to the beach? Should a white or tiger even go “pokin’ round” her large plastic surgery scarred ass, she’ll just deploy the chum…Lil’ Trigger. It’ll be like that episode of Diffrn’t Strokes where Arnold’s friend got molested by that creepy old bike store owner, ya know Mark Foley. Only instead of man-boy buttsecks or whatever happened, it’ll be blood and silence…NO TRIG NO!

Extemporanus August 11, 2010 at 2:19 pm

[re=636488]norbizness[/re]: That would explain why Tampa Bay’s covered in something thick and ropey.

Justin Time August 11, 2010 at 2:39 pm

Listen up everyone. Tampa Bay is a – wait for it – body of water. The name of the city in question is Tampa. To draw fans from the surrounding counties, all of the pro sports teams are named the “Tampa Bay ………”. The Tampa Bay Rays (baseball team) play in St. Petersburg! Are you confused yet? Class dismissed.

ennui go August 11, 2010 at 3:27 pm

Come for the teabag crazee that passes for politics. Stay for the narcotics — uh, pain medication. It’s truly a destination resort.

torera August 11, 2010 at 4:44 pm

That logo is further proof (if we needed it) that even the repugnicans don’t pay any attention to what they are saying.

Freedom McAwesomePants August 11, 2010 at 8:02 pm

If you rearrange the letters in “Tampa Bay Host Committee,” you get “my mom, I pet, stab taco hate”. Republicans hate Messicans and according to Republican, Messicans eat tacos. Sarah Palin is a Mama Grizzly, so she’s going to be in charge of the taco stabbers. That means Sarah Palin is going to be the next Queen of America, and this message is from her pet Trig, who will be always at her side, probably in one of those big purses that you see famous people carrying their pets in.

corduroypants August 11, 2010 at 8:14 pm

Republicans can’t design.

Long Form Def Certificate August 12, 2010 at 4:13 am

Mosque is Mezquita in Spanish. Which just makes me think of barbecue. Maybe the fats in the GOP & Tea Party just got confused then, thinking about an hot beef injection.
