Utah Company Blasted for ‘Huggable’ Obama Sock Monkey

“>302szed.jpg

According to the blog entry below, this is the company’s explanation:

An Ohio blog, Plunderbund, was the first up with this and in this post, you can see the response from the creator of the item:

Dear Joseph,

Thank you for your email and your forthright feedback. No, this is not a joke, and our intention is not to offend.

Our objective is three fold:

1} Provide a cuddly toy for the millions of Obama fans to take a little piece of their favorite candidate home with them.

2} Have a means for children to become a part of the political process with a cuddly plush toy all their own.

3| Contribute a pivotal article of presidential election memoribilia.

After test marketing our product, we found a majority of our customer base finds our plush toy fun and loveable.

By virtue of our plush toy now temporarily out of stock, we’ve had to expedite a new order of inventory to meet the needs of our customers who want TheSockObama.

Joseph, again we thank you and appreciate your interest in the TheSockObama.

Regards,

Dave & Ellee

It’s going to be a long, dirty fight to November, and regardless of how it turns out, Americans are sooooooo screwed.
