Birther mugs

| May 18, 2011

The latest fund raising scheme of “Organizing for America” is that they’ll send you your own copy of the Obama birth certificate on a coffee mug for your $15 donation. Don’t believe me?

They begin the fund raising letter with a rant against Jerome Corsi – I’ve never in my life seen a presidential campaign attack a private citizen for fund raising purposes like this campaign does. Then they get cute;

Last year, the President said, “I can’t spend all of my time with my birth certificate plastered on my forehead.”

This is about as close as we can get.

If the facts can’t make these ridiculous smears go away, we can at least have a little fun with it.

And then we’ll get back to the important work of supporting the President as he tackles real problems like high gas prices, the deficit, and unemployment.

Thanks,

When is the president going to start “tackling” these problems? After I give him $15 or after his next round of golf? Has the birth certificate thing been holding him back all of this time?

So we now define “tackling” as doubling or quadrupling, depending on the metric?

Oh, yeah, I’m so gonna support that! 20 percent unemployment by 2016, along with $8/gal gas, and $4 Trillion deficits–what’s not to love???

Surprised they didn’t release the birth certificate this way originally. Wouldn’t have been able to run a coffee cup through Photoshop and seen what a hack job they did.

The POTUS’s rhetoric, and snark such as the birther-mug, appeals to the pre-married, accept-no-responsibility folks who’ll form the basis of his GOTV army.

Obama has never been a role model for class. When Bubba left the White House, his staff took all the “W” off of the keyboards. Wonder if Obama’s staff will even leave the keyboards.

I want everyone here to know that I did NOT design this mug, and it is NOT available in my online shop. However, if any of you have an alternative design that you think should be on a mug, Contact Jonn, and just like Obumbler, we will use if for a fund raiser, to the organization that the website staff here choose. Birth certificate on a damned mug. How egotistical is that? But then, I suppose that if they were dumb enough to vote for them, that they would be dumb enough to buy one.

You should try running it through Illustrator, downloaded straight off the WH website.

Drop the pdf into Illustrator, and then select all.
Next go to Object at the top and scroll down to Clipping Mask, then Release.

Watch what happens…its bizarre, and I ain’t no birther……but that is a poor job of editing if I’ve ever seen one…..just sayin.

FO: Maybe you should do one with a picture of Obama golfing on one side and his scorecard on the other…

Country Singer But, but, but wouldn’t putting his picture in my photoshop give it cooties or something, perhaps the creeping crud. But I might do that, I have some real ringers of photos of him, slightly retouched in one way or other. Hehehehehehe, thanx for the inspiration.

DaveO

Country Singer has a great idea!

How about this variation: O and Carter golfing, with the rest of the mug being a comparison of scores (inflation, unemeployment, taken to school by Iran, etc.)

… or Carter on one side of the mug looking at a mirror image and seeing Obammy … then Obammy on the other side of the mug looking at a mirror image and seeing Carter

… or Obammy looking at a mirror image and seeing Buckwheat (lil’ rascals)

I’m done
