Political Costume Ideas

Seeing as Halloween is right around the filthy corner,
let me take this opportunity to share some costume ideas which came to mind.
For those truly looking to make a statement this year, can't think of a better year to do so!
Certainly can't forget the event occurs all but a few days before the November 2nd elections either.

1) Homeless Uncle Sam:
who better to represent America in these dire times?
Complete the ensemble with a cardboard sign which reads:
"Obama, think you can spare that CHANGE now?"
This was my idea, but ironically I can't afford it in these cash strapped times,
pretty disappointed to say the least.

2) The Terrorist Patriot/Forefathers:
best as a group outing, maybe a lil' Ben Franklin, some Thomas Jefferson or simply an activist.
Not sure how to pull off the terrorist part off, but where there's a will, there's a way.

3) A Fluoride Zombie:
Show the world what really stole your brains and sucked the lifeblood out of America
This one should be fairly simple to pull off,
but may prove tedious repetitively groaning "Fluoride" in replace of "Brains".

4) Monsanto GMO Animal or Frankenfood:
the mad scientists of Monsanto want to play god?
Show em' a diabolic creation which proves nothing goes according to plan.

5) Communist Obama:
They'll be a fair share of Obama masks out there,
& comi gear can usually be found at your local army barracks.

6) Blue Beam Alien:
With all the ET gossip going around lately, aliens should be this years pimp costume.
Simple extraterrestrial getup
adorned with the words Blue Beam on the back should suffice.

7) Lady Justice Zombie:
Zombies have been growing in popularity since the Thriller video,
there exists a whole culture obsessed with the undead,
from movies, to zombie marches, to survival books...
It's gotten out of hand, quiet lame in my eyes.
Don't get me wrong. I'm a Fulci fan so I appreciate a GOOD zombie flick
(emphasis on good for those that didn't get the hint)
but if you plan on going as the walking dead this year, make it count.
This costume will prove that justice is truly dead in your eyes.
The perfect option for the girl not looking to go as the typical skank this year.

8) NSA's Big Brother:
We who strive in this police state are under constant surveillance nowadays,
especially if you have an opposing opinion.
Remind those that are naive to the fact, that: "Big Brother is Watching You"
Maybe a business suit or some sort of mech outfit,
with fake exterior cameras attached, maybe a boom mic if possible.

9) Debtor Slave/Prisoner:
If those experts not paid off by corporate America are right,
we will all (if not already) be slaves to debt.
Figure the "Average Joe" get up should be good,
beer drinking helmet, football jersey, snacks,
& maybe the ball from the chain gang with "DEBT" written on it.

10) "Skank Ho" Statue of Liberty:
The global elite have "turnt that bitch out".
I figure, girls will be girls, & many can't dream of going as anything that doesn't show off their bodies.
Which is why I was glad to see the local 7-day forecast predicts it's gonna be under 50 degrees that night, possibly upper 40's... I sure hope so!
But if you insist upon letting it all hang out, do it as the "Ho Trick Statue of Liberty".
Kudos for combining the outfit with a "Pimp Obama" or something of the sort.

11) Global Warming Cult:
This one will most likely have to be a group effort, and I'm not exact on how it can even be pulled off.
But if coordinated correctly this will truly be a case of striking while the iron is hot.
Between the Al Gore effort and Hollywood disinformation, last years lie, has been exposed
due to the fact that the data has shown to be false and forged, and
we are in the midst of enduring one of the worst winters of most of our lifetimes.

12) Oil Drinking BP Shrimp:
one of the single worst ecological disasters to ever occur has all but been forgotten,
remind people that the seafood is still not safe and we will not forget this tragedy.
Will work best if you can have a knack for building foam suits similar to Kaiju Big Battel.
One would only need a foam suit and a oil funnel, maybe an empty oil container.
To further get the point across you could write BP somewhere on the outfit.

13) ObamaCare Death Panel Nurse:
this one will let everybody know that under the soon to be enacted Obama health care plan,
granny will indeed be expendable in the eyes of the courts.
This one would be nice for a couple, especially for a woman who's either in a wheelchair already,
or would look forward to being carted around all night.
The nurse will wear exaggerated nurse scrubs and Obama mask covered by surgeons mask.
A nice touch on the scrubs would be an ObamaCare logo:

The patient should dress overly elderly, if they are elderly even better.
The senior should sit in a wheelchair with restraints and headpiece on it like an electric chair.
The words "Death Panel" on it might get the message out more clear if necessary.
A mannequin will do if you can't find a pair
