People seem to have been going crazy for these tees over the past few days, and I can see why, since its Star Wars merchandise, and as I understand it, all Star Wars merchandise is popular. What I didn’t realise earlier is that as well as the t-shirts posted above, the full capabilities of Zazzle’s ability to customise clothing is being utilised, meaning that if you feel that you deserve to be voted to Jedi Council then you can put your own name onto a tee. There’s also buttons available to help complete your election outfit.

As far as I can tell, they aren’t actually holding an election, I thought this might be tied in with some kind of poll to find the most favoured Star Wars character, but it appears not.

Check out the Star Wars selection at Zazzle.

I’ve just realised that none of my tee blogging brethren have gone near this story, which probably means I should steer clear too, but if its on a t-shirt and its news then I think I should at the very least alert you to its presence. Basically, a tavern owner in Georgia thought it was a good idea to produce a t-shirt which had Curious George, a cartoon chimp for those of you that are unaware, on it with the slogan “Obama in ‘08″ written underneath. The Bar owner, Mike Norman, claims that he doesn’t mean any offence with the t-shirts, and that he just thought that the monkey and Senator Obama looked alike. He’s still selling the t-shirts (who on Earth would buy one?), but the owners of Curious George (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt) aren’t particularly happy about their image being used in such a way, so whilst free speech ensures this guy can create such a t-shirt, copyright law will probably mean that he can’t do so for very long.

I haven’t quite decided who should get the ever-so-powerful HYA Presidential endorsement, but I do like this tee, and as the pic above shows, Barack Obama certainly doesn’t disapprove!

Enstrumental released their OBAMA shirt in March 2007 (before many hopped on the OBAMA tee bandwagon) and has given 8% of the proceeds of the many shirts sold to the OBAMA campaign.

Enstrumental have got a great selection of other tees too, so it might be worth clicking through even if you’re still a bit pissed that the guy with the best hair isn’t in the race anymore.Costiness=$35 Link
