Obama? Fine By Me.
Our first tee ever on the site! We’re from the midwest too, so this issue is hitting the news hard. Check out the description for this t-shirt, by Matt Degnan:
The shirt was designed as a reaction to the national backlash the University of Notre Dame received from Catholics after they selected President Obama as the 2009 commencement speaker. With radical groups threatening protests that would embarrass both the President and the University, a student created this shirt to help show support for Obama as their commencement speaker. The shirt found its inspiration from the slogan “Gay? Fine by me,” a shirt commonly used to show respect for homosexuals. The campaign hopes to show that students and alumni support the selection of president Obama even if they don’t necessairly agree with all of the president’s individual views. It also employs Obama’s favourite typeface – Gotham, because come on, he’s a baller.
