This is just getting out of hand
Illinois to offer temporary Barack Obama license plates
From Autoblog:
The cult of personality (and associated merchandising onslaught) surrounding the 44th President of the United States now extends to Illinois residents' automobiles. For a mere $50, Illinois motorists can acquire special-edition temporary license plates that further shows their ardor for President Barack Obama (beyond the usual assortment of Hope/Change/Etc. bumper stickers). Proceeds from the sale of the license plates (which you can buy at the Chicago Auto Show next week) benefit the Illinois Library Association.
The tags are valid between February 17 and April 17, 2009, at which point they will undoubtedly appear, en masse, on eBay. Hat tip to Michael D. for the heads-up.

Did you notice all of the lawsuits that are being filed against his group for using that picture of him with the word HOPE on it? Seems they borrowed the picture from a newspaper without permission and some so called artist added the word HOPE and now they are all in a mess for using the picture without the papers permission.

I wonder if you could bend the plate a little and then attach it to the inside of a urinal. Nice for target practice.

I read today on a newspaper link I think it was from Oregon, that the Obama coin is a fake, just a sticker on a 50 cent piece!
I can post the link tomorrow, it's on my computer at work. |

Sure he has done something. He has been in office 3 weeks and already taken his first vacation. Probably working on having Presidents Day changed to Obama Day.
Ron :LOL: |

Actually he is just a figurehead. Pelosi, Fienstien, and Boxer were talking about how they are going to run, ( ruin ), the country now that they have a president that will listen to them. Oh well, at least he hasn't taken another vacation yet.

So, if you are against people buying these license plates, you are against benefitting the Illinois Library Association.
