COOL NEW WEBSITE LETS YOU REPLICATE FAMOUS OBAMA POSTER
One of the most iconic images of President-elect Barack Obama was provided by artist Shepard Fairey and featured a red white and blue print of Obama with the word “Hope” underneath in blue letters.

We paid $15 Million and all we got was this lousy Lifetime show?

TPS video of the day 11/30

It’s been about two months since we’ve had a video of the day. Why? I don’t know. Don’t ask such stupid questions.
