tzikehWhen Howard Dean announced his candidacy, Ben and Jerry's served up an ice cream flavor in his honor - Maple-Powered Howard.
In The Washington Post this morning, Gregg Easterbrook says that "other presidential candidates should demand their own Ben & Jerry's flavors!" Media Notes columnist Howard Kurtz then provided some, as a public service.
John Kerry: Very Kerry Irish-Jewish-Czech Melting Pot. Flavors from all over the world, blended together until indistinguishable.
Joe Lieberman: Joe's Kosher Swirl. Corned beef flavored ice cream with real chunks of rye bread and ribbons of mustard. . . .
Dennis Kucinich: Denny's Leftward Lurch. Bubble-gum pink flavor, with lots of nuts.
John Edwards: John-Boy's Trial-Lawyer's Delight. Every carton contains a dead mouse; bite into it and Edwards will represent you in your suit against the dairy. . . .
Dick Gephardt: Dick's Missouri Hometown Lemonade. When you've run for the nomination as many times as he has, the campaign takes on a lemon flavor. . . .
Dick Cheney's Undisclosed Flavor.
George W. Bush's Ice Cream of Mass Destruction. The label lists nuclear, biological, and chemical content, but inspectors have been unable to find these ingredients.
