Mmm...bake sale

MoveOn.org writes:

President Bush presents himself as a man of the people, but a look at his fundraising shows otherwise. Over $95 million of his money has come in the form of bundles of $2000 checks from high-rolling CEOs and lobbyists.

So this week, we're holding a fundraiser that will highlight the contrast between Bush's big-money supporters and the hundreds of thousands of small donors on our side. On Saturday, April 17, MoveOn PAC will hold the world's largest bake sale -- an event which will show the voters and the media that while Bush has the millionaire vote locked up, we've got the grassroots on our side.

[...]

And since a bit of competition makes things fun, we'll take a page from the Bush campaign: sell 100 items at your bake sale and be a MoveOn Pioneer. Sell 200 and be a MoveOn Ranger. We've also got a few other tricks up our sleeves, with some celebrities who are going to come to some bake sales--maybe yours! Chip in and do your part:

http://action.moveonpac.org/bakesale/

So far, more than 500 sales are set up, with names like:
-- Mountain Park Patriots Bake Sale, Roswell, GA
--Have Your Cake and Beat Bush Too, Brooklyn, NY
--Cookies for Kerry, Milwaukee, WI
--No CARB (Cheney, Ashcroft, Rumsfield, Bush) Bake Sale, Denver, CO
--Aunt Polly's Warm Scones & Hot Coffee for Cool Democrats, Albuquerque, NM

Name ideas for my bake sale:

--Boot Bush: Buy Brian's Babka!
--You Can't Beat Brian's Buns for Booting Bush
--Chuck the Chimp with Chocolate Chip!
--I Cooked This Shit; Now Let's Cook Bush!
--These Are "Grass" Roots Brownies, IfyaknowwhatImean
--If You Buy Some Of These Pies Maybe We Could Get Bush To Shut His Pie-Hole, The Lying Bastard; I Hate Him

I might make a Brian Flemmeringue Pie.

Don't ask.
