Robert Gibbs’ and Andy Stern’s Purple Bracelets a Mark of Clintonesque Solidarity?
by Kyle OlsonI thought it was odd that Robert Gibbs was wearing a purple bracelet (and a purple tie) during his appearance on “Fox News Sunday” and CBS’ “Face The Nation.” SEIU president Andy Stern, the top visitor to the White House, wore a similar, if not the same, purple bracelet at one point, too. And in virtually every photo of Stern, he’s wearing SEIU’s purple color.
The bracelet is kind of a signal to tell Stern that the administration has it under control and ObamaCare will be delivered. Just a few more Democrats need to be shown the Chicago way.
Am I making too much out of nothing? Maybe. Who knows.
I do know the presidential administration Gibbs serves is doing whatever it can to deliver health care reform to Andy Stern and SEIU.
After all, that’s pretty much the only lot that wants it at this point. Even members of the president’s own party don’t want it, which is requiring them to twist arms in a way that would make Stern proud.
And this reminded me of another time a signal was being sent by the White House some time back.
During his grand jury testimony Monday prosecutors questioned President Bill Clinton about the necktie he wore on the day Monica Lewinsky testified before the federal grand jury.
Lewinsky claims she gave the president the tie he wore Aug. 6, the day she appeared, fully immunized, before Independent Counsel Ken Starr’s grand jury.
Prosecutors asked Clinton Monday if he was trying to send a signal to the former White House intern by wearing the gold necktie at a Rose Garden event on handgun control.
During the questioning prosecutors reached into a pouch and pulled out a photograph of the tie the president was wearing the morning of Lewinsky’s testimony.
Two sources, loyal to the White House, who were briefed on the president’s testimony said they were told, the president leaned back in his chair and smiled and then expressed bewilderment at the question.
…
Lewinsky told prosecutors she gave the president a half dozen or so ties and sent notes asking him to wear them as a demonstration that he was thinking of her.
Was Gibbs sending a signal to Stern, ala Clinton and Lewinsky? Doubtful. But anything is possible in the lead-up to the intra-Democratic Party showdown to deliver health care reform for Andy Stern and SEIU.

Those cutsey little Purple Bracelets?
That is how they recognize each other in lieu of the secret handshake, or the more familiar Zeig Heil!
Remember, everything is relevant.
I don't understand how anyone that supports Health Care Reform would want it to become law in this fashion. This is the most sad and amazing think I have ever witnessed.
These people will have to answer to the American people for pulling this underhanded crap. I won't rest until I see some of them in jail cells. It is time for us to DEMAND a clean government!
Did anyone notice that the other week when Obama came out and said that Healthcare was going forward that he was wearing a purple tie and standing in front of a yellow drape? You always see presidents wearing either blue or red ties, which has always irked me since I think the only way a man in a suit can add some color is with a tie, but they always wear blue or red. So I googled and found out that they wear blue to show fidelity and trustworthiness and red to show power and that they mean what they say. SO, why the purple tie in front of a yellow curtain when he was talking about Healthcare? Was that a silent 'shoutout' to SEIU?
Welcome to the "DIVIDED STATES of AMERICA" where anything goes including having an ILLEGAL president that is hell bent determined to make America more divided and where Tea Party Patriots are frauds that don't care if the president fails to meet Constitutional qualifications!
Andy Stern, as smug as he seems in the photo, looks like something that crawled up out
of the drain, when I was showering after gym class. Nasteeee little man wanabe !!!!
Don't tell anyone but I happen to know for a fact that it's a signal to meet Rep. Massa and the boys in the congressional locker room for a tickle fight. Be there at noon guys. I'll bring the lotion.
You'd better believe it was! I saw that too. What a sad spectacle this has become. All this bill will accomplish is a bailout for the unions and their pension plans. They don't want rioting like they are having in Greece.
So, is Gibbs the kneeling Monica? That must be Andy standing Stern, and no doubt he has a big cigar.
What other evidence to people need to see that this President is corrupt? Really? Is it that hard to see?
The SEIU is running the USA and they are all but ready to tear down the stars and stripes and put up the purple and gold…
When an adult wears a colored rubber bracelet it is not done without thought. There should be not doubt what the subliminal message is. This administration maybe speaking in front of the American people but not for the American people. Instead of "READ MY LIPS" the message should read "READ MY ARM-BAND."
Their everywhere !!!!!
http://www.seiu1991.org/The_New_York_Times__Miami...
Sterns and Gibbs are collectivist cousins.
And so is Obama!
Those stupid plastic bracelets make me ill. They use to mean something, now they are just considered 'the in thing' by Hollywood and imbecilic people who think they are making a statement. They do make a statement and that statement is "I'm a moron".
Does anyone deny that Obama and his administration is the most Special Interest oriented than any other administration in the past. They have allowed in more lobbyists and union leadership into the WH than ever before. They have openly discussed their pride and help they have given to ACORN and SEIU. http://www.americanparchment.com has new reports daily about the special interest powers in the White House, probably the largest collection I have seen. They even feature articles from Big Government and Big Journalism every once and a while, probably because this is the best sites on what is happening deep in the government.
Blue and (RED) make PURPLE. I am sure there some significance to the color PURPLE
Anyone who pays attention to the Business News, Moodys is talking about cutting the Triple A credit rating of the US. When that happens, we will be on a downhill slide, with Greece.
Someone this week in power needs to draw the distinction, that with several Trillion in additional obligations related to the Health Care Hoax, this will be inevitable.
Barrack and Company are meddling with things that are beyond their grasp. We are held hostage, by the elite political class, who are nothing more than Lawyers, Accountants and professional PR hucksters.
Just wait until Stern passes out the toe tags.
Perhaps red and gold — hammer and sickle — would be more emblematic for them. They certainly fit!
What has happened to American that collectivism has become popular, when just 15 years ago, it was demode? Our Republic has never been at such risk!
Absolutely correct sbenard!
You think?
Has anyone asked Gibbs about the bracelet? I lost my wife and now I'm losing my sister – law, for my wife the purple bracelet stands for ovarian cancer and is engraved with"cancer sucks"
Don't be afraid of the question
Whiskey, tango, foxtrot, purple ties and bracelets? It's finally happened … the "Barney" presidency.
Purple and gold are their country's colors. They are wearing them to show their patriotism and loyalty to their country, which is NOT the United Sates of America. When one country takes over or occupies another through war down come all the flags and the occupying forces "colors" go up.
On a side note. I am getting sick and tired of all their smug faces even though I know the smugness is orchestrated to get an emotional, irrational response from us so we are at a deficit arguing logically. It is classic head games and I know it and it bugs me. You know the look…..the kind our mothers would have slapped us for and when we asked why the slap when we did not even say anything, the answer was, :Well, you were thinking it!".
Maybe my mom needs to wipe those smug little grins off their faces. Would be nice if she accompanied it with a, "Now listen here, you impertinent younggggg maaaaaaaaaN, you are too cocky for those little britches of yours. Until you can fill them with adult-size respect, keep you mouth shut and don't look at me with that smug grin!"
I find it interesting that Moodys sites the out of control budget and debt service rates as the most likely causes of a downgrade for the US and the UK, so why in the hell are they adding 10 trillion more with this sociaIist scheme?
The only answer is that this president and his pals WANT America to fail completely!
I agree with you. Who would want to be seen as so corrupt to the core?
Unfortunately, after spending much of the past year studying the roots of progressivism, mostly from the writings of its founders, I've realized that progressives seek a global socialist dictatorship ruled by elitists. The LAST voices they are listening to are those of their people who they consider to be beneath themselves. They all want to be kings, and they see "the people" as a bunch of ignorant serfs! They genuinely believe they have a RIGHT to rule! They are tyrants to the core. So we shouldn't be surprised that they are willing to pass this monstrosity without care for what they consider to be the peons of society — US!
LOL Barn………..LOL
Holly,….. the bracelets make me wanna puke, too. My 10 year old grand daughter wanted one of
the Livestrong ones several years ago, but after I explained how Lance had treated his family she
changed her mind. Her best friends family had just dissolved, so for the 1st time in her life she
understood how traumatic that can be for the children.
Sorry for your losses. Whereas your bracelet means something profound–Cancer does Suck–these guys are users and would where one of your bracelets to get a rise out their enemies, which are Americans. Then laugh and show how wrong and trivial we are by showing it is an ovarian cancer band. It is all a set up. It is all orchestrated mind games and we are walking right into the trap. They are going to have the biggest laugh and constitutionally illiterate Americans are not going to want to associate with us buffoons. They will have been programmed that the purple and gold guys are the smart, sane, non-judgmental, wise Americans. But make no mistake, Purple and Gold are their country's colors.
"I love you, you love me, we're as happy as we can be"………….
Isn't that the Barney song?
The only other Barney song, would be Bwarney Fwank, singing YMCA……….
If they keep screwing with US, they will ALL have to dress in full length red coats, like the old British Army did.
For the same reason……..
Tiffany Owens and SEIU and brain washing kids !!!!

Bracelet meanings : LOL !!!!!
http://www.amyth.com/Odd/index.html
Purple – indicates the wearer is willing to kiss a partner of either sex
With respect to John Z. I pray for your family.
The "purple" themes these cowards parade are less than honorable. It is blatant support for SEIU. We can no longer ignore simple truths. SOTU, Joe and Nancy were sporting purple. Motley illustrates the "gangsta" color theme very well.
The emporer can recognize his "army" of quids by who's wearing the bracelet.
I think Obamao is the one kneeling!!
You guys amaze me. I thought those stupid bracelets were just one of my peculiar pet peeves. Something to place in my idiosyncracies column.
Remember that comedian, "Here's your sign"?
Those bracelets are "their" sign. It screams, "slap me, I am a follower".
Dumb bastards.
I did hear Andy is the White House's most frequent guest.
Maybe he & gibsy have a 'crush' going. Scuse me while I
upchuck. Where do they find all these slimy little men?
Regarding the previous comment that a purple bracelet is used for ovarian cancer, I too am very sorry for your loss.
It's unfortunate that after the numerous lies and complete defiance of WE THE PEOPLE, even if their purple bracelets were for cancer, it could never be veiwed as such – having said that, why then don't they just wear ALL the different colors showing support for each? They can't and won't because it is not about supporting anyone or anything other than their own agenda. So even if I were to believe it is innocent (which I do not0, then the yellow drape kills that belief completely. Not a single one of these guys would ever be called a MAN in my book.
………..and the body bags.
The message I get, it says "Laugh at me, I'm a moron."
I bet these commies want to paint the White House purple too!
OMG I am serious that is freaking me out. Imagine if Bush had worn something or other showing solidarity with some… I can't think of the right-side equivalent of a Union… I don't know, maybe if he wore a tie that said "Halliburton" or something like that. Congress would have started impeachment proceedings immediately.
I just clicked your link. I'm amazed.
Damn I'm getting old!
HANG THE PURPLE BASSTARDS:
DRUDGE: USA, UK MOVE CLOSER TO LOSING AAA RATING
And I bet he's there to re-program the robot and chief…….lol
Very interesting, I did not notice it and had watched the interview. Likewise, I missed the whole Clinton tie thing too…
Didn't they take Gov. Palin to court for wearing a sports coat with a logo. So if one is in the White House wearing a signature branding system, then what? These people need to be stopped this is behavior of the famous logo of the Nazi party. They have no place in government to brand a movement when we the people do not want it.
Gibbs is an obsequious weasle who is incapable of telling the truth. Just like when I see Jerry Rivers (Geraldo) on the screen my first reaction is to change channels or turn it off. Same goes for Obama, I just cannot abide listening to the sick, twisted lies that emminate from their bribe holes.
Do not vote for anyone unless they sign a contract with the people of America and will voluntarily leave office if they fail to 1. Investigate All the closed door deals on All involved, 2. Repel the health care take over crammed up our #ss , 3. Vow to abolish the union thugs………, 4. Cut spending & taxes 50% and leave us the hell alone.
I guess all moms are the same. You can tell so much from a look that you don't need to hear the words. 90% of all communication is accomplished without words.
You can lead a democrat to "free stuff" but you can't lead them to logic.
You're right Cowboy! Obama had on his PURPLE tie at his state of the Union address!!! Disgusting…like they're in a secret club or something! Only it's NOT secret!!
And a PURPLE TIE–just one big shout out to Andy!
Just think.
If Health Care gets passed, people like this will be covered:

I saw Gibbs the obsequious on Chris Wallace yesterday and I so wish that Chris had thrown the fact that SEIU and UNIONS bought Obama the White House when Gibbs was talking about the SCOTUS Citizens United decision. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UNION GRAFT AND CORPORATE GRAFT. I applaud the court decision if for no other reason than it admits that they cannot stop illicit funding so why handcuff one group versus another.
UNIONS SUCK THE LIFE OUT OF OUR COUNTRY
I supposed the purple bracelet is intended to get the "right" all worked up. Maybe to irritate them.
Well I say you can only kick the "right" so many times before they bite back.
November….
The only bracelets these turds should be wearing are made by Smith & Weson.
It should go:
I love you, you love me so let's team up and kill Barney,
With a shotgun blast Barney's on the floor,
No more purple dinosaur…
It's definitely a signal saying "Hey Andy, we're doing your bidding, give us a little slacK!!"
Why tell the truth when they just murder the truth and blame it on conservatives…?
Just like the sly little finger he gave Hillery and others, sophomoric behavior from our nations (?) Leaders(?).
I despair for our Nation, till we get the kids out of government and back in the sandbox where they belong.
Go back and check the SOTU. Lots of purple wearing dems there.
Missy
Most prostitutes sport ink somewhere on their person…..
Media and administration whores use the purple "tramp stamps" to show solidarity with each other and if and "accident" should occur, who will get health care and who will get euphinasia..
I was wrong.
I thought group photo's of the Clinton Administration looked like the Great American Freak Show. It was merely a dress rehearsal for the current debacle.
Cowboy Logic
O read this and clapped his hands with glee .B. and M. are getting their wish. America sliding down the hill, with them doing their level best to accelerate the decline.
Missy8s
LOL, you nailed it.
My prediction if this thing get 'shoved' through is that at least 25 of the biggest insurance companies in America will immediately file bankruptcy and the resulting economic cataclysm will crush the economy. The 'big ones' are tied into everything and if fortune 500 companies feel the pinch they will lay off 50% of their work forces, followed by their suppliers, the property lease holders and the advertising companies ie the domino effect.
"If" this bill does get through the meltdown will happen at lightning speed and many will not be able to defend themselves against it.
Total collapse but at a much much faster rate than anyone expects…
Michelle needs to adopt her and teach her how to eat proper and drink water.
She really should be Michelle's pet project.
Those purple bracelets are the left and right tonsils from Barney…
Evil Doctors
This is no mistake. The union management knows, and communicates to the rank and file, that it’s a sign of solidarity. I have been told so by well-placed people inside one of the largest SEIU locals.
FYI, MO and SanFranNan were also wearing shades of purple at the State of the Union address.
Thats funny.
If she dies from obesity at 1,000 lbs., they could live off the carcass for months.
40 yrs of social justice "it's mine" attitude….
Missy,
I agree with you.
For a year now, nothing positive has happened in this country. It has been stymied by indecision. The dominoes are all lined up ready to fall. If this passes, it will be the first dominoe, and they all will come crashing down.
I only WISH they had some accountants. So far, all I see are activists, community organizers, union thugs, leftist professors and academics, theoreticians and lawyers. Does Obama have anyone, ANYONE advising him who has actually run a successful business or held an office in a private corporation?
Glenn Beck may be theatrical at times, but he is correct about one thing: the current state of progressivism can be traced back to Wilson, who was the first President to begin stocking his cabinet with academics and university professors rather than people with real world experience. And look where it's gotten us. Theory and implementation of theory is fine in a controlled experiment. When applied to an entire nation and its economy, not so much.
YES!! This administration is doing whatever it takes to deliver health care for Andy Stern & SEIU, since they seem to be the only ones that really want this to happen. We will have to check to see if everyone voting yes in Congress is sporting a niffty purple bracelet.
Exactly. None of them have had real jobs or businesses employing real people. The are clueless and evil to boot….
Boys boys boys. Bunch of fags.
Early-onset Alzheimer's runs in my husband's family. (Still no to this national health care farce bill which doesn't even address the problems inherent in the system.) We wear the purple Alz bracelets when appropriate to assist in publicizing the effects of the disease and to help raise research money. We spotted Gibb's bracelet and wondered whom he was supporting. Why during a presser? If it is SEIU, what are they, tween girls showing their fidelity? Why not just get the necklaces with half a heart on each side?
Or brains.
I don't understand how anyone calls the bill under consideration "Reform."
Grown men wearing purple bracelets?
Hmmm..Maybe they play dress up, after all, everyday, they play being men.
Purple or lavendar? (I have not seen pictures)
Purple denotes royalty. Lavendar denotes homosexuality.
No major business can survive the regulatory onslaught that will come with it and just like the Smoot-Holley Act it will push the economy into an abyss. If I was still running my old company I would shutter the doors on passage as it would take away the motivation for going into business in the first place. I shut down my last business because of tax increases and if that could close the doors of a five person operation I can only imagine what it will do to a company with 10,000 or more workers.
This is economic doom if it gets through.
One major accident already occurred in November of 2008 the next question is how big will the next one be..?
Well at least now we know
Remember the State of the Union – all of them were wearing shades of purple/lavendar. Pelosi, Biden, Flotus.
Watch the photo's of Hussein playing Basketball, he wears a purple head band.
There are purple bracelets that are in support of our military – purple heart purple – that can be purchased through Soldier's Angels and the like. Perhaps it would be a good thing if we all wore those and insisted on congratulating Gibbs and Stern for their support of our military men and women..
[...] and ObamaCare will be delivered. Just a few more Democrats need to be shown the Chicago way. [more...] March 15, 2010 | No Comments [...]
Purple is the SEIU color. You know kinda',sorta' like the crypys(sic) and bloods with their "colors". Only now it for borderline,in so many ways,personalities.
So this administration is is bought and payed for by a Janitor union.
Um, does anyone ese realize that the actual colors of the AntiChrist are in fact purple and gold?
What are SEIU's colors? (Purple and gold)
What colors were prominent during Obama's last healthcare speech? (Gold backdrop, purple tie)
They always wear a hint or purple, sometimes partnered with gold elsewhere.
Hellllllo? Anyone home? Nothing to see here people, move along. Just coincidental colors, that's all, go back to sleep…
Yep — it's an inside joke, I almost guarantee it. The idea probably came from the soldier bracelet Palin wore a while back and caught some flack over. The Dems take note of these things, and use them later to their benefit.
Where Palin simple corrected the issue, the Left will use the correction as an opportunity to ridicule the right.
Why is the white house beholden to them? I thought they were in charge. This devotion to them is kinda dorky.
The British Army in 1791 was filled with honorable men. We defeated them, but that doesn't make them evil.
Don't denigrate them like this.
What people do not understand is that they will not downgrade US debt from AAA to double AA+. They will downgrade it to a much lower rate and re-adjust most every other currency up at the same time. This is NOT going to be a slow motion drop with anyone able to do anything about it, it will be a snap your fingers it is over event.
Why else would a wimp like Bagdad Bob be wearing a stupid looking kid's purple bracelet??? He doesn't want his kneecaps broken. I'm sure that Boy Barry is sporting purple somewhere on his anatomy also. I think what these guys want US to wear are some tatooed numbers on our wrists!!!! FUBO!!!!!
TRU DAT!!! Totally coincidental………………….how paranoid we must be to even CONSIDER this!!!!!
andy stern and the SEIU. True PIECES OF SH!T. To think this union thug and shyster is now on obummer's deficit advisory panel. WHAT A JOKE!
"Obsequious weasel who is incapable of telling the truth" was the headline of the Craigslist ad he answered to get the job…
either way we're getting a royal buggering.
Talk about childish behavior,,,remember when the clintons were vacating the white house and those spoiled liberal brats went and took all the 'w' keys off the key boards.
Progressives have no class whatsoever. Sick, spoiled little children of the woodstock generation continue to pollute our public discourse.
If you invite termites into your house, don't start whining when they eat it from the inside out……………..FUBO!!!!
SEIU,got to get Health care pass to put their member on the tax payer dole Andy Stein, isn" going to used their due to pay for what they promise.
Purple is an "anti-complaint" bracelet. You wear it, and it means you promise not to complain for a whole month. Some New Age pseudo-Christian designer church started the fad.
They're also the colors of UW. But that doesn't mean Obama is a Husky fan.
Funny, I'm wearing my green complaint bracelet, actually. Gibbs and Stern both suck.
Every day that an top level Obamatron wears SEIU purple, $100,000 gets deposited in their secret Swiss bank account.
Obama would bodypaint himself purple if his lips weren't already permanently purple. He' "racking it up".
How is the bean, bullet and Band-Aid supply? One hit and the nail is set. Great observation and point! This will be it. All we can do is continue to oppose this ludicrous socialist action. Commercial real estate teeters on the brink and that will cause another bank default scenario to assist in the destruction of the dollar.
The dollar and the euro are near 0 exchange. Greece is rocking on the precipice of, financial collapse and the E.U. has nothing to prop them up. They will fall, the euro will drop and we will be that last economic hold out. If they succeed in the annihilation of our economy then China will hold the money supply, debt and control. Usher in the New World Currency based on human capital the new resource.
Wow, not sure what could have made that one get deleted on impact.
Maybe it means Bob wants to go steady with Andy…what a lovely couple…

The S word did it.
Damnit! Now Democraps have gone and ruined a perfectly good color. It used to be my favorite but not anymore. Not since it became the official color of the Bʊrqa Hussein Odunga's butt brigade of flaming fascists.
That was my first thought (lol).
Does this not speak to the high school intellect of this bunch? Like the year my girlfriends and I all made matching dresses to wear on Fridays!
Oh, I'm feeling sick….
Should have come with a spew-alert! Good one!
In the Revolutionary War the enemy were identified by their red coats and so the enemy of today are identified.
It all relates to "The One's" official lip balm, Barney's Blistex. Either it's a sign of obedience to the purple lipped One (from his word to our deeds) or it's a sign of some special club managed by Kevin Jennings…. something involving hand-to-mouth or where their hands have been.
Obama is wearing a purple tie at his health care appearance today. Someone should ask the White House what it signifies. As far as I can tell, it is solidarity with regard to passage of ObamaCare.
If you misspell the word sociaIist using a capitol "I" instead of a lower case "L" it'll post…
The curtain was gold. Purple and gold are the colors of the SEIU. I believe you have found the connection.
I knew it! Thanks for confirmation. (lOl)
A few people have pointed out the gold curtain behind Obama at least week's appearance. I believe the purple and gold motif is a tip to the SEIU colors and logo.
CL that comedian would be Bill Engvall, a couple of years ago he had a comedy show on
RFD tv, pretty cute. Think he's moved past the 'sign' phase of his career though. I feel almost
as strongly about clothing with logos & advertising across the chest. Argue with my grandkidz
on it all the time when we go shopping, always need to repeat my standard phrase, " if you are
gonna advertise for Dora the Explorer the shirt should be free".
Bullet supply is GREAT!
Band aid supply is GREAT!
I have oodles of beans, powdered milk, pasta, ramen, freeze dried meats and vegetables and seeds!
Got em' covered…
Instead of brown shirts
it will be purple bracelets and ties
lmao
CL the body bags will be camouflage, or what was the technology the military
developed to make our tanks invisible, don't remember the name.
Tickle fight in the shower
It looks like Charlie may give her a run for her money http://www.flickr.com/photos/weweed_up/4393120420...
Here is a rhetorical question for you. Who has the human capital in this country? Another, Who has been the most frequent visitor of the White House? Seems they may be setting this up perfectly and have across the pond as well. It is in the air…the foul stench of C o Mu Nis M.
Got it. Thanks.
Yes. I couldn't remember Engvalls name earlier.
There ya go again, speaking to my idiosyncracies. I thought I was unique, but the more I hang around here I find out there are alot of like minded people. On the days the wind is blowing too hard to wear a cowboy hat, and I have to wear a ballcap outside, I mkae sure there are no logos on it. I painstakingly cut the stitchin on the "John Deere" or "Carhart" patches, and take them off.
I always believed if someone wants me to advertise, they need to pay me to wear their clothing.
do tell Jamesb, I hadn't heard that, but I''m not surprised……..good for them.
Missy……..I was thinking I might need some powdered eggs, know of a source?
communist
how did you pull that one off Randyl2?
eeeeewwwwww………..TMI………….TMI…………….TMI…………YUK !
Everyone be sure to look for one on the obamoroid
I just couldn't believe you can't post s0cialist so I was testing.
communist can post but not Barry's middle name? Ridiculous.
At least capitalist is still allowed.
http://www.eggstore.com/
6 1lb bags are $50 on this website equals 240 eggs…
Just google "Where to buy powdered eggs" for other sources, fair warning the prices are going way up…
LOL Red,……….I'd forgitten about those
I just was testing.
Either that was just a fluke or now I can't because trying again got me this –
This comment has been deleted by the administrator.
"The bracelet is kind of a signal to tell Stern that the administration has it under control and ObamaCare will be delivered. Just a few more Democrats need to be shown the Chicago way."
I think it is a signal to the SEIU morons that Andy Stern has the Obama admin in his back pocket.
They are trying to Bi some healthcare reform
It is no accident that they chose purple (the color of royalty) and gold (wealth) to represent themselves. It gives transparency a whole new meaning when taken in this context. They mean to rule over us from on high with an iron fist while stealing the wealth from every American. It becomes a little clearer every day.
You have been to the gazette, you can see what buffoonery lies awaiting there. They can not see past the growing noses on their face. They will be among the first to cry when those chains are slipped neatly around their necks. The only words left for them to utter will be, help me. They will be among the last for aid from me.
I'm with you on this one. I thought they were moronic from day one. I, too, must fight the urge to punch everyone I see wearing one. They are nothing more, or less, than a visible sign of what is wrong with our society.
If I am not mistaken cowboy, ( correct me if I am ) wasn't it you that pointed out all the vibrant colors they all wear so we might be able to pick them off,,,,,, opps I meant pick them OUT of a crowd. By the way thanks for that.
If they want to advertise then so be it, I mean really,,,what are our chances of getting them to all wear a bullseye on a shirt ?
I don't think that way.
Much as God will forgive us if we turn from our sin, I must also forgive them, as much as it pains me to do so.
I'm so glad we are fighting back. Enough is enough. The last straw for me was when I realized that they want to deny live saving care to the senior citizens that worked their whole lives and payed their taxes and redistribute care to illegals to guarantee the leftist dems remain in power forever. They also helped bankrupt Social Security . They all gotta go,RINOS included.
I wonder if their wrist straps are inscribed with "What would Obama do?"
http://www.whatwouldobamado.info/
I didn't say I wouldn't. I just said they will be last. When I start cutting chains it will be the freedom fighters first, sycophants last. Do you think God may look unkindly on me?
I don't make those decisions.
I knew you would say that. Nor can I. I will just have to ask forgiveness instead of permission for that should the time come.
Maybe is not a political message. Maybe they're inlove with each other. I heard they can marry now in DC. Congrats Andy and Bobby.
WOW. What an EPIC FAIL of a post. How sad and pathetic.
An ounce of research as opposed to partisan knee-jerk-conspiracy-theory-over-reaction found here would show just how foolish the author and essentially every commenter here (not including myself) is. Disgraceful.

"Some chatter on my bracelet http://bit.ly/9Yu7eX it's for 9yr old daughter of friends she is bravely fighting cancer – say a prayer for her."
But I'm sure the SEIO gave the little girl cancer.
I don't want to bust all your's bubble. The 2010 State of the Union…
a) Obama did not wear a Purple Tie
b) Good O'l Joe Biden, did
c) Scagg Bag Nancy wore a Purple jacket
d) The only thing Obama wore that was Purple, was his "LIPS"

I just wanted to get that Politically Correct Information to you all
I think if the unions like it, it must be good for the country. I mean look at all the other wonderful things unions have done for business and for efficiency. For example, the DMV, airport security lines, FEMAs response to Katrina (once the democrats eventually called for help). Everything costs less and does more when unions touch it. Before someone blows a gasket or a massa, this was sarcasm.
What many of you don't know is that the color purple is a favorite of the far left not just SEIU, It is a color chosen by radicals and communists to create their own identity in world instead of the traditional red. I live in the Northwest and they (Lefties) ware this color all the time very common on the San Juan islands, Purple Sox, head bands, Back packs with purple on it along with the traditional wrist bands, dresses, T shirts heck even their dogs have this color as a collar. If you ask one about it they will tell you it's just a warm friendly color, but look at their expression on their face that will tell you they are lying, I know a communist who openly admits that it is a way of saying I am a communist or part of the progressive movement it's a signal of solidarity . By they way they are amused by the fact they most people don't this.

You people are sick. As if it's any of your business in the first place, Gibbs wrote about the purple bracelet on his Twitter account 15 minutes ago: http://twitter.com/PressSec — it's in support of a 9-year old little girl fighting cancer.
How about some good old-fashioned American decency & kindness?? It's obvious readers of http://www.biggovernment.com don't have any. What a surprise. Kyle Olson, next time, do your homework … and as one reader above comments, "Why don't you just ask Gibbs about the bracelet?" Duhhhhhh…..
St Louis Rahms too
honestly I did not even notice it until it was pointed out here. My kids used to wear stuff like that…….. and now even THEY don't think its cool! Sooo I sit here looking at two grown men wearing little rubber "wanna be cool" bracelets that have a lot of sway over my government and all I feel is …….. sick.
Looks like this is where the morons gather to whine: are you all really getting that upset about some colored silicone bracelets (which usually are used to indicate a particular cause one supports or disease that one wants to find a cure for)? No wonder there is so much arguing and hate. Pure ignorance is to blame. One less site I need to concern myself with. Let the ignorant replies fly! I'm not going to see them anyway; they'll just be as retarded as the statements that led me to write this.
So a man wearing a bracelet to show support for a 9 year-old girl with cancer makes you…. sick?
I hope it doesn't make you as sick as, oh, I don't know… the girl with cancer who he's wearing the bracelet for.
Maybe it's a sign of support for a 9 year-old girl with cancer?
they're butt buddies
It's secret commie code! Like wearing a flag pin and having a "wide stance". Omg you people need a hobby. It's a bracelet to support cancer you eejits. Open mouth, insert foot, that's the Big Gov way.
It shows me who's in charge at the White House…The White House is answering to SEIU without
a doubt!!….Why would they need to signal Stern?
Do you realize that the ones kids wore in school where code for how far or what type of sex they liked? It wasn't about being cool. That's what it ment from where i'm at. The girls with many colerfull bracelets where pretty where the fun ones if you know what i mean.

That's his ball and chain.
If you are right, I apologize for my stupid comment.
I am right:

"Some chatter on my bracelet http://bit.ly/9Yu7eX it's for 9yr old daughter of friends she is bravely fighting cancer – say a prayer for her."
Now if everyone including the author of the post would apologize for their stupid comments….
What is with you people and coded bracelets?
That (might have) happened at one school, once. URBAN LEGEND
http://www.snopes.com/risque/school/bracelet.asp
And Andy Stern's bracelet is for what? The same little girl? And the purple attire (Gibbs's tie yesterday; Obama's ties the last two health care speeches; the Dems's purple clothing doing the SOTU). Same little girl?
Yes. I saw that. It was sending a message They had it color coordinated exactly. People were even commenting about the yellow drape, and what it signified.
Stern's braclet for the girl? maybe.
Stern and Gibbs braclets not the same? maybe.
Any reason to believe Stern and Gibbs are wearing the same braclet? no.
Any reason to believe there is some wide ranging conspiracy by dems to wear purple? no.
The republicans were wearing red at the SOTU, they must be commies?
BTW, my point is not that it is wrong, just that the explanation is disingenuous. There is some solidarity or shared cause behind the purple motif. I am not sure why they don't just say, "We are wearing it to show our solidarity in the cause to pass our health care plan." I think that would be more honest than, "Oh, it's for a little girl dying of cancer."
Yes, if the GOP were all wearing red, it would be for a reason, whether to show solidarity for their cause or to show unity or to show "Red State power," or whatever. It would could, but it very likely would not be, coincidental. They do coordinate this stuff, after all.
So to be clear, you think Gibbs is making up out of thin air this "9yr old daughter of friends" who is "bravely fighting cancer" for the sole purpose of clandestinely showing support to the SEIU?
That doesn't seem ridiculous to you? To invent a 9yr old girl with cancer (which could probably be easily proven) to fulfill some secret sign of solidarity is more believable than the certainly acceptable explanation already given?
To be clear, nowhere in my posts do I refer to the excuse as being made "up out of thin air" or the girl as being invented. If that is his only reason, great. If he and all those others are just coincidentally wearing the same symbol, great, too. If there are other reasons or symbolism, that would be worth mentioning as well.
BTW, in the next couple of days, someone from the WH or SEIU will state they are wearing purple as a symbol of the fight of healthcare (hint: someone from the WH is already making off-the-record statements in that direction).
Wait Luke. The author maybe made a mistake, but you have to admit it's an honest one. Before Gibbs' tweet you probably thought the same thing as we did. A lot of people who watch the news would have put those things together: purple, White House, SEIU. The fact that Andy Stern also wore a similar purple bracelet made it even more likely that the author was heading to a logical conclusion. You cannot deny that the relationship between SEIU and the White House is very close, and real. You may tell me the relationship is purely 'business'. But this is exactly what scares many Americans. We just release our anger by commenting here. I am glad you came in and made the correction. The truth will set us free.
The bracelet is in support of a 9 year old girl with cancer. You people are twisted and ridiculous.
Wait till your kids come home from school one day wearing purple bracelets and berets of the National Youth Leadership Council (Obama Purple Shirts) . An Americorps off-shoot thats busy writing the new curriculum for our public schools.
What a royal dumbass. I bet your father reused condoms and you were conceived on the second use, when he turned the condom inside out.
Um, hey douche bag: it’s a bracelet in support of NINE YEAR OLD with cancer.
Jesus Christ, you people are the dregs of the earth.
You guys know it's for cancer awareness, right?
It is to support a 9 year old with cancer. Paranoid much?
You wingnuts are the most repulsive, sickening group of garbage I could imagine.
Yes, yes, I'm sure Bill, Hillary and Chelsea were all personally responsible for removing all the 'w' keys. Tell us, which Clinton do you think actually hatched the plan? Was it Bill himself? Hillary? Do you think maybe even Chelsea thought that one up or do you think maybe as a child, she tried to exercise independent thought against doing something like that but that Hillary gave her "the look" and Chelsea knew her role as lookout was already determined?
We might need to go back over file footage and see if Chelsea & Hillary ever wore purple dresses. This purple thing might be deeper than Obama himself!
oh really…… cheap shot…. I did not even know what they were for entirely other than there was the comparison between Mr Gibbs and Mr sterns little bracelets.
To me…… i do not like the way they look cause I think of kids wearing them. These are grown men discussing serious things so I personally prefer them to LOOK serious.
Power on !! for cancer awareness! However….there are OTHER ways of showing support too.
quickly checks my daughters bracelets to see how colorful they are…..lol…
[...] the brain trust at Big [...]
Or, it's for a nine year old girl dying of cancer, you arrogant assholes.
"Gibbs the obsequious" coupled with Herr Schtern the "Jewbiquitous" are quite the team.
I’ve never been on this site before. You people are out of your trees. You are seriously demented.
Somebody should check to see if Kevin Jennings is also sporting a purple bracelet. Maybe it denotes membership in their special friends fisting club.
Lord are you people stupid!
Not to be a downer, but "Zeig Heil" means "(you) show hail" in German and has, as far as I know, never been the political slogan of any group … since it's nonsensical. Perhaps you meant "Sieg Heil"?, which, you know, is the one that you would find if you spent more than about 3 seconds googling.
But then, I'm guessing there isn't a lot of foreign-language competency with you bunch.
Santelli on CNBC brought up losing the AAA rating over a year ago, the Sqawks laughed at him. Today Liesman on CNBC said that it wasn't significent that the rating could be lowered. Santelli disagreed and Liesman melted down when Kernan laughed at him. Great video, a must see! (Zerohedge blog)
Moody's can be bought — but remember, that can go both ways …..
anyone catch 60 minutes last night ????
Nakie Rahm can come too Barney he wants to tap that thing.
Some friends of Gibbs have a five-year-old daughter who's battling cancer. The bracelet is to show support for her. Why do you want sick nine-year-old girls to die?
I caught about one minute of that interview and wondered what that purple bracelet was, but I decided not to wait around to see if it came up in the conversation because one minute of Bagdad Gibbs lies was all I could take before I had to change the channel.
How sweet, they are like BLOOD brothers…
There you go again you stupid liberal. It did happen, I did not attribute the stupid childish act to the Clintons themselves but rather to those who worked for them, hired by them in the White House. Bill for his part was too busy with his trouser snake problem to give it any concern, and Hillary only too happy to have finally outlasted the Travel Gate and Rose law firm billing dodges, to strip all the goodies from the white house. It was their trogolodites that did the really stupid acts of vandalism. Bill and Hillary were too busy ripping us off for the really important stuff.
his kid has cancer you idiot
Gee ahole, maybe he knows someone with cancer?
You people are the most idiotic pieces of garbage to be called humans!!
Keep it up. It helps us to ID the freaking moronic aholes who walk amongst us.

Where are the reSLUGliCONS ahole? I thought you conservatards were all for deficit reduction. NOT!!
What's you fav color now? Ahole Chocolate? Black, as in the inside of your empty head?
This discussion is a proof of string theory. It is an absolute alternate universe on this web site. It isn't tied to the real universe, but it has its own laws and rules not applicable in reality.
You people are whacked. Let me guess, the earth is 6000 years old, right?
As much as I am inclined to think that every article of clothing one wears during a press appearance is somehow a secret coded message, sometimes a purple tie might just be a purple tie. Maybe it was just the next one on the rack.
Kyle Olson, judging from this post, that must be your big brother's or dad's picture your using. No mature adult would posit such a ludricrous interpretation.
PS – where have you been for the last 10 years that these various colored bracelets have been worn in support of those fighting cancer. I hope it hasn't been cutting class…
What if they actually know someone with cancer chucklenuts? What about that possibility eh?
Name me one person in this whole damned country/world that has not been DEVASTATED by cancer moron?
Have you no decency? Well, your existing here, so, no YOU HAVE NO DECENCY OR BRAINS.
He's wearing it because a child friend of his daughter has cancer.
You douche.
What a coincidence! Andy Stern and Robert Gibbs kids both have cancer, thus the bracelets. Ok.
"[E]verything is relevant" – all of a sudden the paranoids are post-modernists, too. I thought that was a despised liberal take on the world, but I guess in crazy world anything goes.
You folks is fuckin' nuts.
It's purple – it's a signal to that socialist Barney, I just know it
What if they actually know someone with cancer chucklenuts? What about that possibility eh?
YEah, there was a signal between Gibbs and the union bosses. Yeah, I'm sure that was it.
Dislexia is a disease.
Olson – Aren't you at least the slightest bit embarrassed? Maybe issue some sort of mea culpa?
What is your country/planet chucklenuts? Where do you exist?
It sure ain't earth.

OMG, you folks are far beyond the fringe. The bracelet is in support of a friends child who has Cancer. Wow, so much for love thy neighbor, do unto others, blessed are the children, and all that Christian silliness. Guess you folks are Glenn Beck followers, God and His Word= Communism, Socialism, Fascism. You folks are the REAL enemy of MY God and My country.
Chicken shit.
Aren't you an articulate one. Having a bout of cranial rectal inversion? Place one hand on each ear, grab firmly and pull. When you hear your sphincter slap and smell fresh air, you may speak.

Those purple wristbands are pretty common for people participating in American Cancer Society fitness events, like marathons, bicycling rides, and triathlons. You can buy them at the American Cancer Society, where they have "Celebrate Hope" on them. If Gibbs and Stern are wearing them in support of cancer awareness, that's fine, but they may have bought them to steal the "hope and change" message.
The latter reason is a pretty bad message to send, since it says: 1)We're ironically wearing something else's message to tie it to our little victory dance; 2) we can lie about why we're actually wearing it; and 3) we're cheap bastards who can't even spend the half billion dollars we raised to get elected on silicone wristbands.
Didn't they take some furniture and furnishings from the WH that they had to return?
I need to know,
What is the opposite of purple?

I noticed the "Tie", thanks for pointing out the "Bracelet"!!!!…What a coincidence…….both were "Purple" (Andy Stern (New Obama appointee)) SEIU…..WoW, subliminal messages gone WILD!!!!! Just for the sake of asking, I wonder who Gibbs subjects himself to? Does his boss also have a boss? Who is the boss? CLUE: It isn't the American Citizens!!!
Ok……..sure………I believe that!!! So what about the same colored bracelet on Andy Stern??? Does he have the same situation??? No wonder you people believen these phonies………..
If anyone has paid ANY attention to Gibbs………they'd know what a blind follower and completely pathalogical liar he is EVERY DAY!!! He's definitly NOT the sharpest knife in the drawer………but he's really good at lying and , apparantly, not being affected by it…………….he's PERFECT for his job!!! DON'T answer the questions, LIE through your teeth, and DAMN the citizens……………………………………FUBO!!!!!!!
You people are nuttier than Chinese chicken salad.

I didn't know purple cured leukemia. I'm sorry, but if Fibbs wants us to believe him now he shouldn't have been such a lying jackal before. Eff Fibbs!
We’ve just witnessed the birth of the Purplers!
People who are such tools that they immediately and completely believe that this was an union plot. And begin to form conspiracy theories as to why they’re right, when faced with overwhelming evidence that they’re tools.
Hey Truthers and Birthers – move over a little, you’ve got some company.
So this is where the Breitbart slime reside — a sewer full of fucking cowards.
I totally agree with you. No matter what happens this bill has become tainted and ugly,
She is going to fry your a*& f%$knuts
wow, you people are ignorant. those bracelets are supporting a 8 year old girl with cancer who is a family friend. for christians, you people certainly are full of hate.
Seems to be for a little girl battling cancer.
Bad case of foot-in-mouth on this blog.
When you guys get sick of being wound up, there's a whole world out there, waiting for people to actually make it better. Turn the radio off. Instead of thumping that bible, crack it open. It's a better source than someone who sees hidden messages in the color tie someone wears.
If you read the news and get angry, you're not reading the news.
The purple bracelet is for a 9-year-old girl fighting cancer — when will the small brains at BigGovernment start doing some research?
yeah………….and Bagdad Bob wrote down milk, eggs, and pancake batter, along with 'hype and chains', on his hand too………….one day after Sarah 'the idiot' Palin gave a speech. Of course I believe him…………………..
Huuuhh? What planet did you fall off of? The bracelets are from the American Cancer Society and Gibbs wears his to support a child with cancer. You guys are too cruel. Grow up.
some (well, most) of you commenters have a very magical understanding of the world around you. do you pick out your ties to send secret messages? no? well why would the President? it's just so silly. maybe take a step back and consider that President Obama (you know, YOUR President) is a man the same as any other and is simply trying to govern as best he can during the worst economy since the 1930's. you don't have to agree with his approach–he's a democrat afterall, not a republican, but this stuff is just silly. men wear the ties they wear because their wives buy them for them.
let's go with the urban jargon definition that is supplied by answers.com:
The color purple on a "sex bracelet" (also known as a "jelly bracelet") indicates a fondness of the wearer for oral sex.
Light purple has been used in middle school and high school to indicate the wearer will flash his/her genitalia on request.
Media Matters is right…PAINFULLY DUMB.
I think the significance of the colors come from here:
http://tinyurl.com/tmft
Muslin Moran you idiot, the respected Irish author of such classics as "He wore a purple ribbon", – she was a communist sympathiser and is also part of this color-based conspiracy. Did anyone just see that purple helicopter just go overhead?
The authors on this site don't apologize, even when they get the names of White House visitors wrong (Bertha Lewis) and go on lengthy witch-hunts based on f@ck all evidence, eg Jennings
Maybe it's to show solidarity with the fake Acorn pimp who faces prison time for his crimes. Remember? He did that expose with tapes that were heavily edited and the right-wing media hailed him as a hero, even though he exposed no crimes at all, then later he tampered with a US senator's phone system?
JimH – you are so RIGHT
especially where you say this 3 times –
— "By the way they are amused by the fact they most people don't know this."
We need more anti-intellectuals like you, it is the people who can coherently form sentences that are the real problem in this country.
Don't bother offering a correction, now that Gibbs has officially explained that the bracelet is to show solidarity with a 9-year old girl battling cancer. Corrections are for wusses. I would double down and see if you can get James O'Neill to take out a video crew and locate this "girl" and see if her "cancer" is real. Who are these "parents" and why does this person "Gibbs" care whether their "daughter" lives or "dies?" GET TO THE BOTTOM OF IT
More paranoid, evil lies from Breitbart's site. The bracelet's for a little girl suffering from cancer.
Big surprise, Olson is just another in the long line of Breitbot conspiracy theorists.
Absolute insanity.
Why would a grown man with any sense of dignity wear a little rubber bracelet anyway?

Kyle is a Douche.
Yes, it was so much clearer and easier for Gibbs to wear a purple tie to communicate with Stern instead of sending an email or letter or forming words using his mouth.
This is the greatest website I have ever read!!
"Um, does anyone ese realize that the actual colors of the AntiChrist are in fact purple and gold?"
Hahahahaha. Holy sh*t. I didn't even know people like this existed. Even for the interwebs this is crazy. Not only do you base policy decisions on your belief in the antichrist, but you think he has his own colors? Like for posters and hats?
And its with like total, absolute certainty that the color involves some secret code–like Gibbs couldn't just pick up the phone and talk to Andy Stern? My guess is that if the purple tie during the health care speech was meant to send any message, it was one of bipartisanship. You know…red for Republican + blue for Democrat = purple?
So, its 1 part conspiracy theory, 2 parts racist and 4 parts lunacy to get this little concoction you have here?
Somebody need to take sterns out in the woods some night as teach him how things really should be in America…. We'd sure welcome the chance down here in The Ozarks……hehe
Purple = conspiracy. LOL, I love you nut jobs.

I never said I thought it was some kind of \”conspiracy signal\”, it's obvious it is just a symbol of solidarity between the administration and SEIU. As the article stated, Gibbs was also wearing a purple tie. His Fruit of the Looms were probably purple too. Except for George Soros, Obama owes no group or individual more for getting him elected than Stern and SEIU. Well, maybe Khalidi, but that's a whole different story. Fact remains that Stern and the SEIU (a communist organization) holds considerable sway over this President.
My point was merely that a grown man, supposedly representing the POTUS in an official capacity to the media looked a little undignified wearing a child's bracelet. Guess Gibbs is lucky Stern didn't want him wearing a pink tutu and a tiara.

Wow you're good. Obama clearly hasn't come out and said he wants health care reform passed or talked about it at all. He has to resort to secret signals to communicate this view, and you've deciphered the code. Or maybe it's just a tie.
So the red states are communist? Good to know.
