Stupid Campaign T-Shirts '08
I'm all for expressing your unique life-views via t-shirt, but I think we can all agree some shirts are straight up stupid! In this season of campaigns, GEP has discovered some truly dopey t-shirts on both sides of the aisle.
Kittens for Obama: Awwwwww, the kittens are voting for Obama. Oops, last I looked felines haven't been granted the right to vote. Sorry, kittens. Looks like you don't have a voice in this election. Here's some kibble and a plastic milk ring to play with. OMG, you're so cute! Yes you are!
Barack-n-Roll: Sure, Barack-n-Roll reminds one of Rock-n-Roll, but that doesn't mean a shirt had to be made, does it? What does Barack-n-Roll even mean? Senator Obama is certainly rocking out in the above picture, but how will that help him bring our troops home or fix this economic crisis we're experiencing? What, is he going to play guitar at it? "Check out this tasty lick, Economic Crisis. Yeah! How you like that? Am I totally rocking you--or should I say Barack-ing you?"
I'm a McCainiac: No, you're just a maniac.
Super Obama: Superman can leap tall buildings, outrun trains, and eat bullets for breakfast, but he's also boring, something Barack Obama is not. Superman is also a super-powered alien from outer space who can do just about anything you can imagine, solve any problem mankind may have to face. Barack Obama is merely human, I'm afraid. No one person can magically solve every problem in the world and to believe something like that is both naive and dangerous. Plus, this shirt is just super dumb.
Time for a Change: Here we see the return of Super Obama. With him is a baby with George W. Bush's brainless melon for a head. The message here is that the baby (W) has taken a shit in his diaper (The Constitution, the American people, etc.) and Super Obama (Barack Obama) is there to clean up the smelly mess (the war, economic crisis, energy concerns, global reputation, etc.). Or maybe it is suggesting that Super Obama is gonna stomp on some babies. Either way...dumb.
McCain in the Membrane: McCain = Isane. Insane in the Membrane. Like that song, remember? McCain is insane in the membrane. Stupid, stupid shirt--very truthful message. I'm split on this one.
