A friend of mine posted this on Facebook...wow!
Pray for Obama items and apparel at Cafe Press hmmm this could be construed as a way to "get rid" of President Obama with the zealot religious right. There is also an interesting artlcle in the Christian Science Monitor about this. What does everyone else think?

4. If I Ever See One of These on a Parked Car
it's going to be very hard to not want to vandalize said car - like mine was for having a "Iraq War, NO"!

9. It wasn't a plug for the site...it was to show what is being sold out there.
I hadn't heard about this as I do try to stay out of the political mudslinging that is out there. A friend of mine, who is a knit designer, posted this on Facebook. Sorry if I offended :sarcasm: you. I am a visual person, as I don't live in the US, I wouldn't see all of this. When you actually see the item, which looks quite benign by the way, along with the verse reference it shows how menacing it can be.

12. I think it's obvious
that they want another president. Period. Hate to be a mood-breaker, but wasn't there a movie about assassinating Bush? Let's be human beings here.

15. I need to clarify that this frirnd was appalled that this was going on.
She believes that it is an attack on the President and his family.
