One of my favorite publications, The Onion, uses the prezinetial seal with its parody of the weekly radio address. So, the WH sent a letter and said "stop that!" It turns out that there is a rule that says you can't you the seal to for a commercial enterprise, but the Lair isn't a commercial enterprise. So, why'd they send a letter to the Onion when they should have also sent one to http://www.westernwhitehousegifts.com/pages/915632/. They have jewelry, assorted and sundry items and a rug with the presidential seal made of 100% New Zealand wool. Were all our American sheep were busy? I wonder where it was actually made?
Anyhows, lot of blogs are now showing the seal as well. And support my sweet, sweet Onion. It shouldn't be fried just because some wonk got their knickers in a knot! Check out Daily Kos for more.
Thanks for the shoutout!
