I suppose I owe the American people an apology. Unless you voted for Obama. If you don’t regret it yet, you’re an idiot. However, my venom is misdirected. Really I just feel sorry for you. The dopes from the media that are still holding him up as God’s gift to the world are the ones that should feel the most guilty. Keith Olberman and his ilk at CNN are very likely legally retarded. Then of course, there is the politicians making all this possible.

Oh, they sell Obama posters at K-Mart, did you know? They are pretty sweet. I am waiting for the Obama brand™ line of salad dressings, and ObamaSmaks™ cereal. Obama bookmarks are everywhere, Obama greetings cards, really, if you wear it, you can get Obama on it, or you can get that super cool catch phrase, “CHANGE” on it. (Man, that’s sweet isn’t it? CHANGE. I love it.) Oh I know; Obama lunch meat. Baseball players have their own candy bars, why not Obama? What could we call it? What would be in it? You can’t make a candy bar out of the obvious, because no one would eat something made out of bull-crap. Then again, if you do support Obama you can certainly stomach a lot.

How about duct tape that says Obama on it? That’d be cool. School notebooks, picture frames with matting that has Obama on it kind of looking up into the center of the frame, so you can have him everywhere looking at and appreciating your art. Sweatbands, shoes, and sports equipment in general, the possibilities are endless. Wouldn’t you LOVE a Barack Obama baseball bat?

They already have Throws, Obama bottled water, Tote bags, Super cool belts, and T-shirts of course. Presidents all get supportive t-shirts at some point, but I don’t remember seeing these particular t-shirts after any other president was elected. Comic books are everywhere and I don’t know what a nodnik is, but it sure looks like something a pinhead would buy. It does look really familiar and I think I saw a set on Keith Olberman’s mantle during an interview he gave. I don’t remember the guest or the hard-hitting opinions he was getting confirmed. They go nicely with the “Barack and Michelle Pepper and Peppershakers” which sit proudly on his dinner table. No saltshakers because, well… you know; salt? hello?

I want a neon bar sign I can hang in my window with that super sweet artsy Obama face and “YES WE CAN” on it. Now, that would be cool. I only wish I could get someone to tell me what it is we can do now that Barry is in power. I know I DID get a 10% pay cut since he got into office and 90% of my friends at my place of business have been laid off. So is it, “YES WE CAN GET LAID OFF”? Or is it “YES WE CAN GET A 10% DROP IN PAY FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT 6 MONTHS”?

• Here’s some fun ones. The “It was written” Obama art. Welcome to Crazytown, US Freakin’ A.

• This little gem of marketing makes perfect sense because Obama is such a gamble.

• There is no end to gambling supplies. (The house always wins you know.)

This is from Buy.com about the book ‘Barrak Obama In His Own Words’

Since delivering his keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, Barack Obama has been hailed as the clear savior of not only the Democratic party, but of the integrity of American politics. Despite the fact that he burst onto the national scene seemingly overnight, his name recognition has grown by leaps and bounds ever since.

Thank heaven the clear savior of the integrity of American politics has arrived. Don’t pay any attention to what he has done or what he is doing. His integrity is unshakable, even when he attends anti-American churches, hangs out at a domestic terrorist’s home, or spoons with Chavez or Castro. (Clearly, no one remembers just who Castro is and what he has done. Good grief the media is stupid. We can’t count on them for anything anymore.) All that aside, he is the savior of the integrity of American politics. Utter nonsense.

George Bush also has his share of merchandise, though. In that same K-mart about 10 feet away from the Obama poster display proudly hailing, “YES WE CAN” there was a birthday card with a picture of GW on the front, and inside it said something to the effect of, “Every birthday party should have a clown.” Clever, isn’t it? I wonder how much the dude made that came up with that one. I also wonder if the savior will ever have this kind of merchandise.

At one time, GW was very popular too. What a fickle people we are.
