I just did a little experiment over at CafePress and Zazzle.<P></center>

A Tale of Two Tees

I came up with the idea of a test of two tee shirts. They would be nearly identical, except one would bear the image ofPresident Bush, and the other would bear the image of Messiah Obama. I knew what would happen, but decided to put it to the test myself anyway.

Over at Cafe Press and Zazzle, there are thousands of images of President Bush portrayed as a monkey, ape, chimp, Curious George and much worse. So I decided to add one more to the collection - actually; two more. One with President Bush as a monkey, and the other of Obama. Identical shirts as you can see by the illustration.

The Obama shirt was immediately banned by both CafePress and Zazzle.


If you follow my link, you will see that the Bush as a monkey shirt is up for sale with all of the other Bush as a monkey shirts. Cafe Press has no problem with it. They banned the Obama shirt and sent me two nasty letters.

So here are the two shirts. One is hilarious, one is hate speech. Can you guess which is which?

LESSON:
The image of Dear Leader Messiah Obama must not be profaned like Bush the apemonkeychimp.

Well what do you expect Comrade? The Bushilter is evil! Obama is cute and cuddly and for Change! This is not a case of equal treatment, unless you wish to claim that good and evil are equal. You are not wishing that are you comrade?

I do not believe you that the purveyor of free speech articles, bastion of objectivity, are acting as biased arbiters in the matter of monkey versus monkey. I further am unmoved by your argument that you were sent negative correspondence from Cafe Press. I will not be persuaded until you provide me with empirical evidence to support your claim that they "sent me (you) two nasty letters.

As proles in the gaming community are fond of saying "Screen shot or it didn't happen"

I defy you to produce those letters, Comrade.

RIK

Clearly this capitalist does not see the difference in the righteous will of the people to protest the war mongering of Bush by comparing him to a monkey, with the vile representation of the Messiah Obama with clearly racist overtones.. For instance, it would be ok to represent say a neo-con traitor to his race such as Alan Keyes as a monkey, but not a man of the people, such as "Ca;lypso Louie" as a monkey.

Wahahahahahahahahah What a great idea! LOL!!!!!

pWnt.

I will do better than simply produce the letters (3 of them), I will give you the official "ticket code" number assigned to the case by the official censorship czar at Cafe Press responsible for ensuring that only BushMonkeyApeChimp's image is profaned and that Messiah Obama's (peace be upon him) glorious image is not subject to similar treatment:

To whom it may concern,

Icannot understand why this image is flagged. Have you taken sides inthe political debate? There are more than 500 shirts on CafePressdepicting President Bush as a monkey, chimp, ape, gorilla and more.

Ifyou do a simple search for "Bush Monkey" on your site, you will seethat all kinds of tee shirts have been selling all along with PresidentBush pictured as a chimp, Curious George, a monkey, an ape, etc.

Imade this picture of Obama as a monkey myself and would like it to beplaced for sale alongside the 290 images of President Bush pictured asa monkey.

Please explain your double standard.
Kind regards,

Bon Mots

Just for good measure, I will submit the URLs for the two tee shirts:

You need not bother clicking on the one for Obama, as it has been removed. The Bush image remains online and is not considered inappropriate at all.

/char off

I simply cannot believe it has been 2 and a half years since the big Che shake-up at Cafe' Press. I'm surprised Red hasn't commented yet. Just in case you haven't heard of the great Che controversy:
<br>Non-Communist satirists need not apply


As Red did, ask them if they will accept this artwork, to be used on all their official correspondance regarding "copyright infringment"

/char on

RIK

Clearly this is the same argument used by Cafepress. A most correct one as well. After all, who is this imperialist who thinks we should treat both views as if somehow they are equal? Such a bourgeois concept! To portray Bush as monkey is a free expression of idea! To portray Obama as monkey is clearly hate speech, non-conducive to progress in struggle of the masses to achieve the World of Next Tuesday.

Are they saying that portraying a war-time president as a monkey, Hitler, the devil, and an idiot shows good taste as long as he is Republican? They shouldn't be so obvious.

Wait, are they saying that the Obama monkey picture is in violation of copyright infringement? I'm confused....

Good point, Betty. You see, we can't use Che's iconic photo because the Cuban photographer Corda who snapped it has requested that the picture can be used to promote communism for free, but it can't be used for anti-Che purposes. The lawyers are on the case, separating the good from the bad.

Now, what did the creator of Curious George choose in this case? That it can only be used to put down George Bush and nobody else? I'm confused.

I'm very interested in seeing whether they'll be selling Obama Halloween costumes this fall.

I think it is the big ears.... sort of like a big lips racist smear.

They did not say it violated any copyright. They simply said it was in bad taste.

To profane the image of Messiah Obama the merciful and just who promotes hope is in bad taste.
To make yet another Bush Monkey shirt is not only good taste, but an expression of Free Speech, besides, that BushApeMonkeyWarmongerChimp deserves it.

Hmmmmm...is cafe press owned by Obama?

I'm shocked...

Hmmmmm...is cafe press owned by Obama?

apparently it's owned by a libtard or two...I remember the Che Is Dead shirt; I own one.

Welcome to the Glorious Future That Is Now! All criticism of Our Glorious People's Messiah is racist and therefore in "poor taste".

Even as we speak, Party faithful are removing those Dissent Is Patriotic bumper stickers so that they can't be accused of hypocrisy after Next Tuesday™. Then again, accusing a true Obamunist of hypocrisy is reich-wing hate speech and punishable under provisions of the Unity Act of 2009.

They already do!!! I found this Obama mask at my local Party City.

I just had an idea…can someone take the scene in “V for Vendetta” where everyone has the “V” masks on and replace them with Curious George Masks. We can title it “Obamunism”.

I would like to see an image of the iconic leader Obama poster only with Obama drooling and looking stupid with either ''idiot'' or "inexperienced" written at the bottom. Maybe a beanie on the Obamessiah would also be appropriate in such an image? I wonder if they would let you post such an image, Comrade Smiley?

Congratulations, Pupovich.

With that link, you have succeeded in doing what no one else--not my friends, not any of the women's magazines, not the snooty clerk at the cosmetique counter at Saks, not even that well meaning busybody down the street who, every time she sees me, tugs on my chin and loudly asks so the whole neighborhood can hear, "You know what would look cute on you, Pinkie, make you look ten years younger, thirty pounds thinner, and get the all the guys whistling at you?"**--has ever succeeded in doing.

I'm finally throwing out my blue eyeshadow.

I found this pic on the left in a Google search... It's HILARIOUS!
It was sooo hilarious I decided to do the one on the right...
...then I woke up in a pool of my own urine. Apparently I was beaten with a sack of organic oranges. I have no idea who this mob was, but I found a stray sandal and my house smells of patchouli....

Hmmm. I wonder if there would be profit in finding and converting as many "Bush is a chimp, Bush is Hitler" and etc. images as possible in this manner, the "before and after" side-by-side treatment...

You are willing to risk multiple hate crime charges?

If I were you I would stick to bashing Bush... that way you can win awards and be thought of as an intellectual.

I did a google image search of Obama... I'm 5 pages deep and there are NO unflattering pictures.

I found this one of Bush and replaced Bush's face with Obama's. Unfortunately, my image editing software is acting up and it would not properly colorize the image.

Hold on... someone is knocking at my doo-0-O-R-RHHHHH - ARGHHHHHHHHH

A reader sent me this link, saying "Can you imagine what they would do if we did to Barack what they did to Bush?"

Welcome to https://www.bushorchimp.com!
Welcome to the "George W. Bush or Chimpanzee" webpage. This is a littleproject I decided to start once I realized how much George W. Bushlooks like a chimpanzee. I'm not a member of any political party, and Ihave nothing in particular against the man. I just think he kind oflooks like a chimpanzee. -Bill Feldspar

Let's see if this works the other way around:

I clicked on it and got a dead link (the Barak variation). The sad thing is, we ALL look like chimps. We're all primates, baby!

Betinov - I made up that domain as an example. Now I placed the bushorchimp.com URL behind it just to make it fair (see "fairness doctrine").

Michelle Obama (Barack's dolt of a wife) hates white people so much, I wonder why she doesn't take a more black name like Shaniqua or something. Michelle is awfully WASPy.<BR>

Should I make him a commie smiley?
Maybe red?
A red tomato? Tomatoes are real commies. Red on the outside, red on the inside and a bit seedy.

Evil Smiley -

Your avatar was too loud, busy, nonsensical, irrelevant, unoriginal, and disturbing. The Politburo voted to have it replaced with a more modest, standard Party-issue evil smiley until the time you come up with a graphic that is more tasteful and relevant.

That does it. I'm joining the rebels in South Ossetia.

And by the way comrades!

No more presidential "Hanging-in-effigy" come January 20th, 2009.
This is now considered a racial "lynching" and hatespeech and will be considered a state crime.
This hateful and insideous 220 year tradition of mock lynchings of presidents will now come to an end after the inauguration.
Feel free to continue to hang and burn Bush effigies in abundance before and after 1/20/2009

Indeed!

Oh how wonderful it will be after the Change and dissent is no longer patriotic.

Unless of course the dissent is to some conservative group or functionary that needs to be crushed by the will of the Masses. Then of course it will continue to be patriotic dissent.

Just for you guys...maybe this would look good on a tee shirt?
