Got my daily Obama Hope Change email this morning. Surprisingly, they want my cash. They really really want it! They love the stuff! I really really doubt I’m going to send him any this morning.
The “change” guy is all over the age-old usual P.R. items, and is relying on good old American capitalism and merchandising of schlock, using the same old annoying sales techniques, to advance the new left-wing progressive change machine. (They’ll change all that AFTER he’s elected).
At the Obama store, we find all manner of merch, some weirder than others.
At left, a t-shirt in that full-on artful Che Guevara respect-the-mass-murdering-communist style (must see this link); and at right a curious item which reeks of full-on Orwellian wear—a hospital or prison-type ID bracelet that says “hope” on it. Wear it. Wear it NOW. Or you will be reported.
At the McCain store they sell equally schlocky merch, including a McCain ice scraper (setting themselves up for a joke), but also a so-called “green” shirt made of 70% bamboo, and 30% cotton. Apparently they think bamboo is more “green” than cotton, which I guess it is but in color only. No war for cotton! Stop the cotton drilling! Cotton doesn’t grow on trees! (Well it doesn’t!)
The Obamatons who run the Obama store make a huge point of mentioning that all items are made by labor union labor. At the McCain store they mention only that the items are American made. Speaking volumes, methinks.
EXTRA
:
Someone needs to come out with an “anti Barack Obama” type shirt like the “anti Che Guevara” shirts put out by normal conservative Americans.
So… here’s an effort: at left, a great anti-Che Guevara shirt from “Thoseshirts.com”. At right, my wife in one I think they should come out with. (Sure, I know, my wife has no arms in this picture… I didn’t have time. But she does have arms. Picture it with arms. You can do it. Yes we can.)
