In a previous blog post, I wrote about how Mccain endorsed Crooked Monkey's Funny T-shirts. Well it looks like Obama saw what kind of effect that had on his campaign, and chose to follow suit. Endorsing Crooked Monkey for president of Funny t-shirt world has tremendous advantages for presidential candidates. You rub our booty, we'll rub yours.

Kudos to Barack Obama for pulling out a last second vote for funny t-shirts around the globe. Last night, without forewarning our staff or giving any indication as such, Barack Obama told the public he believed in Crooked Monkey. He said "Make your voice heard." It seems like the presidential candidate had been perusing our website quite a bunch in the last couple of days and decided to quote one of our trademark t-shirts.

Well Barack Obama, we appreciate the shoutout. Don't think it won't go unnoticed on election day.

Well not really. But if you recall in my last post about the debates, I stated that I would not support a president unless he supported Funny T-shirts. In some, weird backhanded way, McCain gave a shout out to funny t-shirts around the world. And so Crooked Monkey is now throwing its support behind Presidential candidate John McCain.

He didn't really give us the thumbs up, but at least he recognized and acknowledged the hard work we've done to produce inapporiate t-shirts. McCain said "In fact, some T-shirts that are very...unacceptable." People have been saying that for years, and I'm glad McCain had the guts to bring it out in public. Sure he's not going to be liked for it, but at least hes bringing the real issues of this election to the forefront.

And as a representative of Crooked Monkey, am I mad that he called our shirts unacceptable? Not in the least. It was an honor and a privilege to hear him talk about t-shirts during a limited, 90 minute debate. Way to speak to the people!

Last nights Presidential debates were quite interesting. McCain looked like a 45 year old beauty queen. Remind me to hire his make up artist next time I'm on national television. He performed well too, pointing out Obama's shortcomings and referencing his countless trips abroad and relationships with heads of states.

Obama looked calm and reserved--focusing on the future and how he can help bring change to our country. As he usually does, he spoke in broad idyllic terms, which promoted his sense of non-partisan talk.

The candidates had some fundamental differences, which was important to see them battle head on.

But I think the real winner was Jim Lehrer. What a class act. How come he hasn't run for president yet?

Oh and why wasn't anyone wearing any of our political t-shirts? Or funny t-shirts? What's the deal here. I refuse to vote for any president that can't rip off his tie and support Crooked Monkey's funny t-shirts.
