Do you know if they have a store with gag gifts? I've been looking for a pile of fresh poop that's colored Red White & Blue.
No way! Register me for the Udderly American Breast Pump!
Actually, this site would be a good place for The Tick to shop, especially with the Hammer of Justice, and Coffeemaker of Victory. Damn, i wish they'd bring that cartoon back.
Ooh, just read their disclaimer:
Expect delivery within 6-12 months. Sizes and colors may vary. Please, only one Confeddy Freddy per trailer. We reserve the right to refuse service to brown people and/or non-Christians. Products not suitable for the satire impaired or humor deficient.
Good site.

Think about it ... would you want to see tampons dipped into viscous red liquid in a commercial? What about yellow liquid and brown chunks poured into adult diapers? Ewwww ...
I'm waiting for the inevitable "Americans are so conservative and sensitive about bodily functions" reponse. Tell me that Swedish tampon commercials use Karo syrup, and that German adult diaper commercials use lager and chunky stew ...
For any idiot that thinks that the webmaster of that site is anti patriotic.. should really think of it well (hmm I doubt that the idiots can think at all 
)
What's more patriotic, buying tons of worthless junk with the US flag atached and patriotic colors or mocking and fighting against the corporations that are selling fake patriotism through these products, they're degrading the flag and making it just another product, plus patriotism isn't material, something many should learn, patriotism goes in your head not on what you wear or have.
Thank you

There once was a day where it was illegal to use the image of the US flag in a commercial or offensive manner. Alas, what would Old Navy do without their best selling t-shirt. I wonder what political group got that old law removed from the books? Was it the evil republicans? Hum.....I wonder....?
My 3 year old daughter LOVES the American flag. We never pushed the idea on her but ever since last 4th of July she's been obessed with the flag. She has a little American flag pocketbook and stickers etc. I don't know why it makes her so happy but its damn cute.
