In Tenn, a vendor at a mall was thrown out because he was selling anti Obama t shirts....

"RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Activists gathered outside a downtown strip club Monday to denounce as racist a banner depicting President Obama as the Joker from Batman.
"Not only is it an attack on the president, but also on all men and people of African descent," King Salim Khalfani, president of the Virginia NAACP, said of what he called "the abomination that's on the wall" outside Club Velvet.
The banner, unfurled within the past few days, depicts Obama as Heath Ledger's grotesque Joker character from "The Dark Knight." The president is shown with smeared red lipstick, a white face and darkened eyes. The word "socialism" is spelled out below the caricature."

Now, I think it is terrible and very tacky at best BUT we do have free speech...
Oh, and by the way a few samples from the previous administration used during the campaign...
...A t shirt showing Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld and the saying...
ASSES OF EVIL
...A picture of Cheney and Satan and the saying...
SEPARATED AT BIRTH
...A picture of the towers in NY and the saying...
AN INSIDE JOB ?
...A t shirt and the saying...
MY CHILD IS AN HONOR STUDENT, MY PRESIDENT IS AN IDIOT
...A t shirt with a map of Texas and the saying...
SOMEWHERE IN TEXAS A VILLAGE IS MISSING ITS IDIOT
I mention those few, and they are simply a few, of the older shirts (STILL AVAILABLE ON THE NET) before anyone says how disrespectful the signs in the news are.
OR the t shirt with the saying...
LIKE A ROCK OR DUMBER
NONE of these are personal however
