Where does Barack Obama rank in the rolling league table of global celebrity? A little above Sting, but some way below Madonna? Higher or lower than Michael Jackson?
According to canny marketeers, he’s right up at the top and there has been a scramble to trademark his name, and variations on it. Here are a few product names currently waiting for trademark approval in America:
Bearak Obama: a bear
ObamaLlama: needless to say, a llama
Broccoli Obama: frozen vegetables (?)
Obamajamas: pyjamas, differing from normal pyjamas I don’t know how
Obamaland: a company establishing itself to flog “educational publications and guides”
And a t-shirt carrying the slogan: “Who’s Yo’bama Now?”
I know just the person to give the t-shirt to.
Eideard, hillary will love her gift from you..
😛
OMG I SOOOO WANT THIS TSHIRT!!
They actually have “Show me your O face” Obama thongs on cafepress.com.
Obama products I’d like to see : The US out of the Middle East.
If I wear an “Obama sucks” t-shirt will I be lynched? I never had any problem with wearing “Bush sucks”.
Meanwhile, no thread on Lieberman retaining his chairmanship. Epic fail for the angry left.
How about some Obama brand black condoms?
#7 – Lisa Lampanelli already has the market cornered on those.
Where’s the thread on Obama’s Attorney General pick? Considering he’s the guy that processed the Marc Rich pardon, it’s another epic fail by Obama, and the editors of this blog.
#8 QQ angry conservative 😛
#3 – Mac Guy

I could only find “Show me your “O” face t-shirts
http://www.cafepress.com/ioutlet.129656999
No thongs.
Still, a great stocking stuffer for the “holiday season”.

The Joe Lieberman thing is too much of a snoozer to even discuss.
Why are you so angry all the time now?

Woo. Obama’s pick for AG was a messenger boy during the Marc Rich pardon. Whoa! Stop the presses!! You failed to mention that President Cheney’s butt buddy, Lewis “Scooter” Libby (the convicted felon), was Marc Rich’s lawyer for FIFTEEN YEARS while Rich was on the lam and on the FBI’s most wanted list. No mention of THAT scandal either on this blog, huh?
Why are you so angry all the time now?
#5: Nah, it was the neo-cons who said that if you disagree with the President you’re un-American… I, for one, welcome reasoned argument of points opposite mine and I get the impression that Obama does too. That’s one of the better characteristics of the intellectual mindset.
I know just the person to give the t-shirt to
A certain relative who said the country wasn’t ready for a black in the White House.
Yes Ma-in-Law, you know who I mean.
Jimy Heel,
You are having such anger issues these days. Relax, get a grip on your self, NO, I meant that figuratively, you don’t have to grab your wienie. Close your eyes and think of how wonderful the next eight years will be. How peace and happiness will again spread across the land. How we will finally catch Bin Laden. How once again we will have well paying jobs throughout America.
Yes, that’s it, Relax and go to that happy place.
