Campy Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Your tax dollars used to stop Onion from using Presidential seal... 485960[/snapback] I'm not quite as concerned with the $9 spent on a certified letter as I am the the $1829 per household spent in Iraq. That said, it is pretty dumb that they'd invest more than 12 seconds discussing The Onion in the White House. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Your tax dollars used to stop Onion from using Presidential seal... 485960[/snapback] "It is inconceivable that anyone would think that, by using the seal, The Onion intends to 'convey... sponsorship or approval' by the president," wrote Rochelle H. Klaskin, the paper's lawyer, who went on to note that a headline in the current issue made the point: "Bush to Appoint Someone to Be in Charge of Country."

They spent time getting paid to come up with this idea, probably went through a few people's desks for approval. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuckincincy Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 IIRC the use of the Seal came up during Clinton's tenure. The potential user was "convinced" not to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
