Can't get enough of Barack Obama? How about an Obama license plate?

Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White today unveiled an "Illinois Salutes Barack Obama" temporary license plate, which can be used for 60 days beginning Tuesday.

The plates feature a smiling President Obama, seemingly gazing towards your temporary numbers. A waving American flag fills the background.

The plates are only good through April 17. They cost $50 -- with proceeds benefiting Illinois libraries.

The temporary "special event" plates are available at www.ila.org/obama.

Please don’t tell me I’m going to have to see those stuck, held captive, in rush hour traffic every morning and night?

I just thought of something..
I’m wondering what would happen if they did that, put pictures up all over everywhere- and people did what that Iraqi journalist did? Take off their shoes and threw them at the pictures? LOL
Or, they could take their shoes off and hit the picture with them, like they did with Saddam’s pictures! Yeah, that might show them!

I’m game. It might even get me arrested and I can point out how they thought it was wonderful when that Iraqi journalist did it. I think I might start carrying a red Sharpie with me. A red mark placed very discreetly would make a statement and make the picture worthless.

I just sent this photo to my wife’s relatives back in Illinois. All but one are very conservative and anti Zer0.

I really like that Capone license plate frame, too bad it would not be legal here in AZ. Must be able to see the ENTIRE name of state clearly.

$50 for 60 days? That’s a good deal. (sarc/)

Especially if you pay for it with one of those fifty dollar bills with Obama's picture on it.

Look around the interwebs, I'm sure you can find one to print...
