Witness the birth of a hashtag.
The suggestion for a topic:
FTW RT @dfgalvin: @gabrielmalor that was supposed to be "No blood for O"
— Gabriel Malor (@gabrielmalor) September 8, 2013
A hashtag is applied:
#NoBloodForO RT @gabrielmalor: FTW RT @dfgalvin: @gabrielmalor that was supposed to be "No blood for O"
— jon gabriel (@exjon) September 8, 2013
With that, “no blood for oil” had found its shortened contemporary version: #NoBloodForO. And with that, many tweeters were off and running:
#NoBloodForO No soldiers should die just for a president to save face.

#NoBloodForO Because Americans shouldn't die for a President who would abandon them and then lie about their deaths to win an election.

#NoBloodForO How can anyone trust him to run a " military intervention" after what happened at #Benghazi ?

#NoBloodForO unless he decides to do the dumbest thing fathomable and disregard the people's will as well as congress and start #WWIII

Your Syrian rebels all passed background checks, right? #NoBloodForO

Can anyone name another Nobel Peace Prize winner in the history of the award that had such a hard-on to start a war? #NoBloodForO

Jarring to see liberals on the #NoBloodForO hashtag brag that Obama is just like Bush.
— jon gabriel (@exjon) September 9, 2013
Which leads us to this: As with any good hashtag, there were those objecting, because dissent ceased to be patriotic four and a half years ago:
#NoBloodForO It's right there in the hashtag. The only reason conservatives are against it is because Obama is for it.
— Al Turnell (@DemocratAl) September 9, 2013
A retort to that is simple:
RT @NumbersMuncher: #NoBloodForO Because Senator Obama would want it that way.
— WhiteHousePressCorps (@whpresscorps) September 8, 2013
Can somebody please make that into a bumper sticker?
