President Barack Obama w/flag figurine (item being sold on eBay)
ebay.com ^ | today | me pointing to ebay item

Posted on 10/02/2009 10:45:26 AM PDT by ransomnote

It's quite jarring that a figurine of Obama standing next to a US flag was ever made or sold in the first place. He was notorious for refusing to salute the flag or even wear a flag pin on his lapel. He has apologized for the US to foreign nations....well...you know this already. I am wondering if this is the first trickle of what may become a tsunami of Obama worshiping icons that will flood the market. Will the $8,000 baseball signed by Obama that is being advertised on ebay right now find a buyer?

Here's the baseball on sale link - http://cgi.ebay.com/Barack-Obama-signed-2009-Rawlings-All-Star-baseball-JSA_W0QQitemZ250507273384QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item3a5365a4a8&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14_

I am wondering if people are going to try to get money for items they see rapidly becoming worthless

You aren’t supposed to just look at it....you are supposed to bow down and worship it. It’s classified as religious iconography at ebay (ok...I may have made that last part up)

YOU ARE RIGHT! His own ‘logo’ tie has the Obamanation motiff that he wants to use to replace the flag!

It would all make sense if the figurine was a cigarette lighter.

You know, I searched eBay on the term ‘Obama’ and the first item up was an anti-Obama bumper sticker. I scanned down the page and almost all the items have zero bids. I then searched by price, listing most expensive items first. About 7 paintings listed as selling for twenty million dollars OR best offer top the list. I paused to look at one that was so poorly done that no one would mistake the man in the picture as Obama. I think it’s just a ‘best offer’ gimmick to list paintings at absurd prices. One of the 20 million dollar paintings was mockery of Hope and Change. But however I searched, there are very few bidders on Obama merchandise. I don’t know if it has been like this for awhile but I am looking for signs that some of his die hards have given up their idolatry and are ready to ‘move-on’.

Where is the real one of him playing with himself while others saluting the flag?

FOREVER BURNED INTO MY MEMORY AS A TOTAL SIGN OF DIS-RESPECT AND ONLY RE-ENFORCED BY ALL HIS ACTIONS SINCE.
