Bad Brains x Barack Obama t-shirt
Obviously kind of late but that shirt is so dope I had to post this anyway....
About the shirts:
"I've been a longtime fan of the seminal DC band Bad Brains and am also (you guessed it) a Barack Obama supporter. I have some professional screenprinting equipment and for several months had wanted to make some Obama shirts but had a hard time coming up with something I liked.For more, click here.
This idea crossed my mind after having shelved the idea of doing a shirt for Obama. I couldn't find anyone else making them so I decided to make them and give 50% of the proceeds to Barack Obama's campaign.
Unisex sizes are printed on Alstyle AAA 100% cotton t-shirts. Women's sizes are printed on American Apparel."

The election is still going in Minnesota!
From Franken For Senate:
"In the closest Senate race in Minnesota history, every vote should be counted fairly.
But there are Minnesotans who had their votes thrown out, even though they did nothing wrong.
They voted absentee, but their ballots were improperly rejected because of someone elses mistake.
And in the closest Senate race in Minnesota history, their votes remain uncounted."
Apparently this dude is not impressed with Franken's latest TV spot, however.

58 and counting: Stevens gets the boot....
Sayonara, Ted!
Now I see why Obama wanted to keeps Lieberman in the caucus despite his f-ckery. With good news in Minnesota likely (?), he'll have a nice filibuster-proof majority in the senate to get some real sh-t done.
