Hard to believe this is happening in 2008. Mike Norman, a Marietta, Ga., bar owner who is selling t-shirts with “Obama ’08″ printed on the front — along with a cartoon monkey eating a banana.
Norman says he printed and started selling the t-shirts because he thinks Obama looks like the character Curious George. But we all know the real reason, and he thinks he’s being funny. Well of course, Mr. Obama Monkey T-Shirt Maker’s attracted all kinds of negative attention to himself, and it’s well deserved. …
Anyway, who is he to talk? If you look at him, he looks like one of the albino monkeys from the original “Planet of the Apes.” This probably won’t be the last shot taken at Obama as he gets closer to the Democratic Nomination, and the 2008 election. Besides, Obama doesn’t look like Curious George. He really does look like Fred Armisen from “Saturday Night Live.” [source]
