They were selliung lawn signs in Virginia as well.

The article was based on one person's reaction in Minnesota, but I'm sure it's nationwide. I doubt a campaign would allow one (or a few) headquarters to try and make money that way when everyone else isn't.

As I just posted to another, it'll be interesting to see how many Obama signs pop up in our little burg after the convention; in relation to previous elections. This is Northern Illinois, a Democrat state, but we're rural and a Republican area.

I think the idea is to deplete the Obama campaign’s resources by ordering a free t-shirt that you are never going to wear.

Not hardly. Look at the link; it's MoveOn.org.

Nothing says “Citizen of the World” like baby blue.

Even IF the shirt is free, there's still a cost to be paid, in the form of having your name and address on a MoveOn.org mailing list. Better use a clever pseudonym and a P.O. Box.

"Why does ever picture of him have him looking up toward to heavens."

He's not really looking up at the heavens. It just looks that way because you're so far beneath him.

You know, if enough middle-aged white guys who work for a living were seen wearing these things around, it might make Obama look so establishment and “uncool” it could eliminate his entire “youth vote,” which is based entirely on the myth that he’s anti-establishment and “cool.”

Wonder what denomination of bill Obama’s face would be put on if he is elected President?

Definitely a three dollar bill, if you get my drift...

It would have to be Infinite Dollars, since he’s so godlike.

I hadn't noticed the "A"'s leaning on the "M". It makes "AMA" stand out? Is he courting the doctor vote here? That is a distinct possibility because, if he is allowed to destroy our health care system, lots of docs will be earning poverty wages -- if they can find any work at all.

I hearby pledge my sacred beer-gut to the cause!

I noticed a funny thing about this image...

It is a floating face, since the back of Obama's head and his neck blend into the background. It looks almost like a Hallowe'en mask. All you would need to do is connect strings to the ears.

Which is, actually, a pretty good metaphor for Barack Obama himself.
