And All I Got Was This Crappy $30 T-shirt?

By the Left Coast Rebel

My local San Diego Tea Party compatriots with the Southern California Tax Revolt Coaltion are a smart bunch. Many of them sign up to leftist newsletters and email alerts from various nutroots/Obama/Soros-funded outfits. It's a great way to feel the pulse of the far, far, left. What better way to know what is worrying them than to sign up for their "alerts" and such?

Having said that, this little gem was in the inbox of a San Diego Tea Partier, an alert from Obama's "Obama for America" re-election outfit:

"Thirty bucks and all I got is this crappy shirt?"

I can hear it right now as Teh One goes down in smoldering electoral flames, November 4, 2012.

Methinks these won't sell nearly as well at the ObamMao t-shirts that were flying off the shelves in Shanghai (the Chinese, of all people, know a Dear Leader type when they see one) or perhaps the post-election Obama-mania merchandise for sale near a few blocks away from D.C.

Exit question: Anyone want to make millions opening a shop that does nothing more than laser removal of Hope and Change tramp-stamps?
