As reported by everyone's favorite snarky blogger, The Hater, a furniture store in New York has started selling a matching chair and ottoman covered in a print of Almost President Obama's face. For $2,495. Choice quote: "It's just disgusting when fancy furniture stores make their overpriced wares so partisan."
In more promising news, I'm volunteering tomorrow at another literary Obama fundraiser where famous writers say pithy things for a very good cause. Pledges are already at $150K! I wish somebody would add just a little more to the check to cover the balance on my college loans, but it's probably gauche to ask.
Photos from the first Power of Words event are over here.
