Borders re-working it's religious book section!

From a Borders in Texas:

I don't care who you are -- That's FUNNY. And a little frightening. It was in the Kid's section!

Must. . . try . . . not . . . to . . . laugh



Thank you for that.

Our local library sells coloring books as a fundraising effort for a new building.

I just about DIED a few months ago when I walked in and saw Barack Obama coloring books in the rack.

Is the obama birthday/holy day next?

THanks. Now I know where to go when I want to read up on my favorite savior.

Yes, it used to be called "Christmas".

Yes, it used to be called "Christmas".

That is pretty scary!

I guess having a crayon color named for him will be the next step.

It will fit in between the colors "Hope" and "Change".

Talk about a once in a lifetime photo op. Soembody needs to send it to Leno. Oops. Wait. I forgot -- Late night doesn't do Obama jokes.

Perhaps Glenn Beck?

Email it to Glenn. He'd likely put that up on his site as the "Picture of the Day." And get a total kick out of it.

So, will it be called Obam-as or Barack-as?

No, the holiday already happened. If you were in a predominately African American area the day AFTER election day--- it was like Christmas, June 19th, and all the other Holy Days put together.

I had never ever experienced anything like it. I saw cheering in the streets, people dancing, and there were "riot-like" things going on.

It was near impossible to teach that day.. I had students shouting out Obama... all day long. There was sponteanous singing of We shall Overcome all day long.

However, I did hear "We beat the Whitey" all day long.

There were upsides to this.. there were no slow moving cars (drive bys) near the school that day. There was no gang violence that day. Nobody got suspended for fighting that day.


I've been seeing Barack Obama coloring books, bootleg Tshirts, buttons, inspirational posters, velvet paintings (along with Malcolm X and Martin Luther king in profile), gold buttons, even brass knuckles that say HOPE-- since about October.

nothing says "classy" like a velvet painting.

I'll see if I can find some pics... it was pretty interesting driving around the city and seeing people selling this Obama stuff on the street corners or in the trunk of a van..
