Throughout this recession Obama was busy creating jobs — website storefronts, mall shops and street vendors eagerly peddled Obama memorabilia allowing the general public to actually touch the 'birth of hope' and capture his moment in history. Alas, this once seemingly recession-proof industry is now struggling to survive.
The Washington Post reports, “Sales peaked at the height of Obamamania, between the election and the inauguration.”
“In Union Station, the souvenir shop once dubbed the Obama Store because of its mostly Obama-related selection has closed. [...] That moment in history is gone," said Molly Andolina, a professor of political science at DePaul University in the president's adopted home town of Chicago. Molly is lying. 'Hope' can still be had for just 5 easy payments of $30:
"Now you can celebrate his historical story with this President Barack Obama commemorative baby doll, exclusively from The Ashton-Drake Galleries. This patriotic baby doll is crafted of collector-quality vinyl to capture the smallest lifelike details. You'll be delighted by his adorable custom T-shirt featuring Obama's, "Yes We Can" on one sleeve and the American flag and sentiment, "The Birth of Hope January 20, 2009" on the front. Strong demand is expected. Order now!"

Even the doll comes with a birth certificate, something Zero doens’t appear to have.

Sadly, the Obama doll’s birth certificate is more authentic than the CINC’s.

Obamamania, between the election and the inauguration. Sure has been fading fast since then.

I bid 75 cents.
And that much only because a new target costs $1.00 at the range.

That doll doesn’t remotely resemble Obozo. Does it come with safety pins to hold his ears back?
Where is the red diaper?
