What The World Needs Is A Good Right-Wing Teeshirt
Speaking of the Euston Manifesto, David Weigel has a libertarian take on it, that rapidly and humorously devolves in comments into a debate on tee-shirt icons:
You think Che makes an attractive T-shirt? He looks like something from Planet of the Apes...
...The problem with the right wing T-shirts is that the right is mainly about ideas, while the left is mainly about the 'cult of personality', the sound bite and the pretty face.
And one commenter reminds me that I hadn't checked in on Communists for Kerry since he lost the election. It's amusingly turned into a "museum of the failed revolution."

How about a tee in the same format and print style as the Che shirt, but with a Cox and Forkum style Uncle Same instead?
With a caption like "Liberation Now!" and a US flag in the background ...

I kind of like the Rumsfeld suggestion myself, though the shirt would have to be made out of a material from which it is easy to wash out the shrapnel from a leftist's exploding head.
Not that there would be much...
