Inappropriate? Yes.

A toy where you play at war against Osama Bin Laden--with the name Bush--hits just a little too close to home right now.

In very bad taste! Nobody should take early advantage of our present situation to make a buck. Shame!

Try calling your doll "Operation Cowboy" and see what happens.

"Icy futurologist" is another operation name that you might try.

cmsspu - are you saying there's a G.I. Joe doll out that's being sold with your quoted "MISSION"? Sorry, but I find that hard to believe.....

Yes! This Doll was created last year 2000. It's one of the best GI Joe Dolls in years!
Code name on ebay: 2010 and you'll find him.
He's a Navy, Air Force, Army, James Bond Doll, all in one.

Oh I believe you about the doll itself cmsspu, but I doubt one of it's "Missions" is to seek out Bin Laden. Sounds more like something YOU might say/said to describe the doll. Am I correct?

O.K. Kraftdinner Hear's what it say's in the back of the box.

The worldwide movement of international criminal and terrorist oraganization is monitored by a classified defense satelite network system code named: Eagle Eye Recently. Eagle Eye has detected an advance of several of the world's largest hostile networks. Thought its final obejective is unknow, this new and dangerous enemy represents a serious meance to the world.

THERES MORE

In response to this threat, the United States military has forned a small, hard-hitting counter-insurgent team whose primary objective is to infiltrate these operations and halt any hostile activities. Code named G.I. Joe, their authorized name is classfied, and their existence is not offically recognized by the government. These individuals represent the most effective strike force in the world - the best of the best, trained to operate anywhere, at a moment's notice.

Krafdinner,

Worldwide movement (Sounds like Middle East)
Terrorist oraganization (Saddam Hussein & Osama Bin Ladin)
Eagle Eye (American Eagle)
Hostile Networks (That's all Bush talks about)
Final Objective is unknow (FBI Knew something was up years ago but could'nt pin-point-it, It was the WTC).

Then just read the last two lines?

What do you think! I didn't put this in my Ad.

cmsspu,

I'm shock that eBay canceleded your auction. Your should relist it with the same word as you use early. If ebay cancel the auction again you needed to relist it a turd time. One eBay see you determine to list it as you see fit they will allowed it.
