Cutest. Political ad. Ever.

If you say so, pumpkin.
catmeetsdog.com

As if I needed another reason to take one of those PAWS dogs home from the Headhouse Market, Cat Meets Dog has just put out the Obama Bandana. Available in small and large sizes, they let your BFF express his political beliefs on a blue, red or turquoise scarf. Partial proceeds benefit the Obama campaign, and they look pretty damn cute on owners, too.

I'd get one for my cat, but I'm pretty sure that ungrateful little tights-murdering monster is on team McCain.




… thank you for your contribution to the McCain/Palin campaign

I don't post on the Clog that much, but this morning gave me the energy to. Aside from being a City Paper writer, I hold down a 9-5 at a great company with decent people.

I do my best not to talk about politics in my workplace. It isn't the best idea, really — for a number of reasons. Anyone who knows me knows that it is hard to silence my voice for anything or anyone, but I respect the fact that I need to get through school so I can use my voice in the appropriate way. My job isn't bad at all. Matter of fact, I do my best not to get caught in election hype. Being politically charged or an activist, advocate for justice isn't limited to election time for me ... it's all year around. This election is nasty. Factcheck.org is your friend. Anyway ...

Most people at my job know I'm involved in humanitarian issues that cross political party lines, and they respect that. So I leave it at that. But this morning, someone decided to put up this nice little ditty on my wall. It is one of those cheesy autographed posters you get from donating money to a campaign. He decided to put my name in the "Dear ______" part. I didn't know it was up until someone came to me and said, "I didn't know you were in McCain/Palin supporter."

I know, I know ... it really was supposed to be funny, right? But it created a really eerie feeling.

Needless to say, it is ripped and in the garbage. I'm all about going green, but I just didn't feel right recycling it. I don't know why ... I just didn't.
