Barry Artiste Op/Ed

This story has not been in the papers yet, but it will be soon, so I thought I would get it out first.

It seems US President Obama will join the ranks of Mickey Mouse, RCMP Dolls, and other Icons of Market Protection, as Obamas popularity is seen as a money maker except for Obama and his family.  If it were me, I would be out for blood!

Commercial advertisers see Gold in the Obama name, everything from dolls with the Obama girls image to Pepsi whoring the Obama persona, not to mention all other advertisters who look to make a buck on the Obama bandwagon.  It seems lawyers for the Obama Brand Name are starting a legal action to protect the President of the United States Family Name from being used by the Unscrupulous Advertisers who under what seems to be false pretense lets the consumer think the President endorsed such Scams.

Hell Yeah, if I were the Commander in Chief, I would be dispatching the Seals to extinguish their ass with extreme prejudice.   Apparently in the CBC news show last week, they was a big expose on sleazos marketing the Obama name without his knowlege, he has lawyers on it, but I think to late judging by all the merchandise out there, including pepsi which somehow wrangled the words from his speech I heard for a advertisement. They even have his daughters images on child dolls made in china for export to USA.  Obama must be pissed.

Just goes to show you free market economy, no matter who you hurt or privacy you invade..

The photos I go online and many featured in the CBC news broadcast, By the way our National Police Force the Royal Canadian Mounted Police R.C.M.P I hear sold or leased their marketing rights to Disney to ensure a respectable product.  But China makes a lot of RCMP memorablia which is sold at Canadian Flea markets without the RCMP knowledge. Goes to show you when a buck is to be made the asian market take no prisioners.
