			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="tt-flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/waraxe/2221015246"><img class="left tt-flickr" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2180/2221015246_0b9f0d423b_m.jpg" alt="(United States)RED" /></a>This is a parody piece (done by me in <a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/family/">Adobe Photoshop</a>) mashing up the 2004 US Presidential Election by-county map (red vs. blue) with the <a href="http://joinred.com/">(PRODUCT)RED campaign</a> for the Global Fund.</p>
<p>Part of the irony comes from the right-leaning &#8220;red state&#8221; map of the by-county vote breakdown, and the left-leaning political alignment of the (RED) movement, (PRODUCT)RED, and the Global Fund.</p>
<p>Now that I think about it, I have <a href="http://www.negative99.com/archive/276">posted about (PRODUCT)RED</a> before:</p>
<blockquote><p>
So I walk into the Apple store.  Now, I am admittedly a PC guy&#8230; partly because my brain and motor coordination can handle more than one mouse button.  Actually, I even PREFER more than one mouse button and find myself using the so-called &#8220;mousewheel&#8221; very frequently.  I&#8217;m walking into the Apple store to pickup a little hard case for my <a href="http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/red/">new fancy red 8GB iPod nano</a>.  It&#8217;s my first iPod and I&#8217;m diggin&#8217; it.  My choice of red was because I greatly preferred it over black (the other choice), and not because it&#8217;s part of the <a href="http://www.joinred.com/">product red</a> movement which is a somewhat leftist dick-dance of an effort to fight AIDS in Africa by donating $10 of your red iPod purchase in the name of Oprah and Bono.  This inexplicably satiates the little activist hearts of the young Starbucks demographic and relieves them of the drudgery of actually doing something to help Africans.
