History repeats itself. Just usually its hundreds of years later, not 15 months later.

When Governor Spitzer resigned from office last March because of his lust for Prostitutes, Crooked Monkey produced the "I'm not a governor, i just like hoes t-shirt." It was a huge hit, but the moment was short-lived.

Well yesterday we were excited to hear that Governor Mark Sanford joined the ranks of Governors who love hoes. I'm not sure who went to greater lengths to secure a Crooked Monkey shoutout--Spitzer for spending tens of thousands of dollars, or Sanford for going A-wall for 5 days--but regardless they both earned it.

Ironically enough, yesterday monring, I decided to wear the Governor shirt, long before news broke of Governor Sanford's infidelities. After hearing the news, I was beside myself. A modern day prophet? That's for the history books to decide.

What kind of person would I be if I didn't live out the recommendations that I suggested on this blog? Not a good one.

Yesterday I went on the Election-day-free-circuit tour around Potomac, MD. My family and I voted at around 3PM. We then hit up Cabin John Mall--where we killed 3 birds with one stone. With the "Yo Vote" sticker in hand, we got our free coffee from Starbucks. Juiced up on the coffee, we sprinted over to California Tortilla--where we not only got a free taco, but also received a coupon for another free taco. Ezra Weinblatt, my brother, and I enjoyed those tacos and then hit up Dunkin Donuts for our final campaign spot of the day. I then went back to Crooked Monkey and purchased a couple of new t-shirts from the warehouse, at a highly discounted rate.

The picture shows us satiated on free goods and prideful of the wonderful, robust democracy we live in.

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.

This is a pretty big election. Tomorrow we elect the new leader of our country at a pivotal time. I don't envy the next president, as he will have to deal with a deteriorating economy, global warming, and a nuclear Iran. It's not a position I would seek, and I do question their judgment for running in this election.

But hopefully one of these candidates for president will turn our country around. We're not endorsing any candidates, but we are encouraging voting. If you vote tomorrow, email us and we'll give you 25% of your t-shirt order. Just email us and say "I voted." And we'll send you a promo code.

Here are some other promotions that cool companies that care about our world are running:
California Tortilla: Local to Washington DC, they are giving out free tacos if you have the "I voted" sticker
Starbucks: An up and coming National chain of coffee beans is giving out free coffee
Ben and Jerry's: The coolest and most socially conscious entrepreneurs are giving out free ice cream.

If I was you, here's how I'd hit for the cycle. Wake up. Vote early (and often). Swing by Starbucks for your morning fix. Then hit up California Tortilla for lunch, and top it off with Ben and Jerry's. Then when you're bored at work, check out our funny t-shirts and grab that t-shirt you've been wanting to buy yourself or your friend at a highly discounted rate!

The best thing about this blog post is that it was inspired by Noam Weinblatt, my brother. He's driving all the way home from college to Make a Difference and wanted to make sure that I give a shout out to voting and all those great companies encouraging it.

We received a great idea for a t-shirt the other day, so I wanted to post it on our blog today. It's a little too late in the political season for us to produce it, but I still wanted to give it a shout out on the blog.

Funny t-shirt text: "Joe the plumber can't touch these pipes."

Thanks Daniela.

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!

This is going to be a new series we're doing. It's called "Phrases you can't find on Google." There are over 1,000,000,000,000 pages on the internet, with over 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 phrases and even more words. I'm amazed that some phrases have just never been discussed on this internet that we have. So to honor those phrases, and to make sure that when someone searches those phrases they have company, we're doing this series. And by the time we're done, there wont be anything not on google.

So, I was talking with this girl the other day and she told me she'd give me a BJ if I voted for Obama. I told her she should create a site BJsforObama.com--because she's not the first girl who's uber excited about Barack obama. There are lots of panty droppers in the world--nice cars, nice houses, Crooked Monkey Funny t-shirts, and supporting Barak Obama.

To my surprise, BJsforObama.com does not yet exist. But even more amazing, is when you search "Bjs for obama" on google, it yields 0 results.

Well, we've changed that. Now when you search BJs for Obama you will find the only website bold enough to talk about the real issues this season. The only website not scared to bring you the real news stories. You heard it here first, ladies and gents. Crooked Monkey Funny t-shirts discusses "Bjs for Obama."

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.

I'm not sure if Russel Brand from the VMAs is a subscriber to this blog, checks our site or just has the same taste in Vice presidential candidates that we do. But last night on the Video Music Awards, Brand called Palin a VILF-- a Vice Presidential candidate he'd like to fondle? fuck?

If we had his address we'd send him our Vilf T-shirt, maybe he'd wear it for next year's VMAs.

More importantly, this just allows us to post more pictures of the VP candidate Palin. What a hard job--having to choose between all those great shots of our future VILF. I personally like the more relaxed, casual, t-shirt wearing Palin. But who am I to judge.

By the way, we've heard from some individuals that our shirt should say VPILF. But considering that that's a mouthful, we're pretty happy with the VILF shirt

In the grand Crooked Monkey traditions of creating funny t-shirts inspired by Sex-retarys, Hot Teachers, and Sexy Librarians (Headmaster, I Hooked Up with My TA) as well as Political Shirts (everything from One Voice One Love One Vote to Pro Choice: Blondes or Brunettes to I'm Not a Governor or the bold anti-war statement: End the Thumb War) comes a cutting edge, straight-up observation about the sexiest new addition to the Political World :

Sarah Palin. (in 1984 and in 2008)


Our new V.I.L.F. shirt (Vice President I'd Like to Fuck) tells it like it is.

Show your support for the McCain-Palin Ticket through the finest form of flattery: A Crooked Monkey funny t-shirt. What better way to let somebody know you want to vote for them and/or have sex with them than expressing it with a soft, vintage tee?

Regardless of your political affiliation, one thing is certain: A Change is Gonna Come. Whether that change comes in the form of groundbreaking new policy improvements or just having a hot piece of Eye Candy to watch on C-Span...... only time will tell.

Here at Crooked Monkey funny t-shirts we're working around the clock to produce the funny t-shirts you deserve. Whether it's political t-shirts--about democrats or republicans--or just regular old t-shirts, we're going to bring you the best shirts.

Our newest t-shirt is about John McCain's new VP pick- Sarah Palin. As soon as she was elected everyone was talking about how hot she is. We agreed. So we made this Palin t-shirt. McCain made history with his pick. He chose the first ever V.I.L.F.- V.P. I'd like to Fuck.

Here's what we wrote about it on our site: "The Vice Presidential pick is one of the most important decisions a presidential candidate can make. You can learn a lot about a President and his priorities by his pick. And a lot of people said that Republican John McCain was out of touch with our generation--that he was too old. Well, I think he silenced all the critics with his choice for Vice President. Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin is a Vice Presidential candidate I'd like to Fuck! V.I.L.F."

The t-shirt is on presale, and it will ship 9/12. Check out the VILF V.P. I'd like to Fuck t-shirt
