I was horrified this week to see an advertisement for an actual product, a Barack Obama Punching Bag. Thinking fair is fair, I figured we needed a Mitt punching bag to even things out. So I made one.
Of course, you don’t have to actually stitch one up; it’s the thought that counts anyway. It seems that the Republicans are getting a bit more desperate as poll after poll shows President Obama is maintaining a slight lead, now even in the three carefully watched “battleground states”, Pennsylvania, Florida and Ohio. It is said that no candidate has ever won the presidency without winning at least two out of three of these states. So, we can only hope that people are starting to come to their senses just a little bit.

Tit for tat is not where it’s at ..tsk tsk
We haven’t even held the convention yet and we arealready reverting to childish behavior. This is what happens when there is no limit to political fundraising. I hope the Supreme Court is as disgusted as I am.
Make Your Own Punching Bag! http://t.co/33B9vo0V
Did you see the embedded article that references the GOP’s Obama punching bag? There’s also the matter of the cake that they GOP sent the President on his birthday. It will get worse.
Sadly, I know that you are right.
I don’t believe the SCOTUS is disgusted; a majority voted to unleash the fundraising floodgates with the Citizens United decision. We don’t have a vote on the SCOTUS’ decisions so all we can do, other than vote for a candidate who won’t nominate more justices such as those on the majority, is point out the ridiculousness through an art editorial.
Yep.
