Surely the backlash against President Bush didn't occur this badly until after he'd fucked up monumentally. Maybe it did, and somebody please direct me to proof of it should that be the case, but regardless, I find the following pretty disheartening:

To begin on a pedantic note, am I to assume that Congress should make a legal statement of charges against Obama for 'treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors,' two months before he is instated in a position where he can even be charged with such?
Whatever. I shan't be nitpicky. But I will express disgust at such hilariously ignorant designs as 'I placed my well-informed vote against Socialism,' and 'When you lose your liberties, don't blame me. I voted for McCain!' As if the administration of the last eight years hasn't infringed more on civil liberties than most others. Or how about the classy '63,846,819 Assholes Living in America.' Now even though I'm not included in that, for not having voted, I'm still insulted. How much more 'sore loser' can one get? There is one t-shirt design though that I approve of. 'Impeach Obama Now! Why wait until he screws up...' At least this one where's its idiocy proudly on its sleeve, admitting there are no grounds for it, and also forgetting to put a question mark at the end of a question.
I need to go browse for some positive t-shirt messages now. You know. The ones about hope, and positive change, and that little one expressing the sentiment that indeed, this collective group will be able to make a difference. Somehow, those ones are so much more inspiring.
It's a shame not everybody sees it that way.
