If you can't get political enough this season, then perhaps you can share even more of your opinions via your baby's tummy. That's right, world, just when we thought we'd said "ENOUGH!" to all the witty slogan T-shirts out there (no longer midriff-bearing, thank goodness, I am SO over that), the onesie-with-commentary takes center stage.
Check out these witty onesies (and a few bibs) courtesy of website urlesque, which provides interesting tidbits and goings on about the wonderful machine that is the world wide web. Whether you're a democrat or republican, you'll be sure to find something to sport your baby in with political style. Or, perhaps you have no real affiliation, but you are committed to causes like stopping global warming--there's a cute onesie for that one too.
Several of the onesies featured center around our current lame duck president, but most center on Obama and McCain. Of all the 28 pictures, the only onesie I've actually seen is "My mama's for Obama." Several naturally also poke fun at Hillary Clinton. None, of course, center on Sarah Palin, although I'm sure we'll see those soon enough. Just give the witty minds enough time! The one I found most clever made good use of Obama's slogan, "Time for a change." It features a baby who needs his diaper changed (it's promo Obama but the republicans could get a good laugh out of it too!). Very funny!
Funny onesies aside, regardless of what you clothe your kid in this season, PLEASE VOTE IN NOVEMBER!

Carolyn said...I am very interested in politics, so I admit I'm drawn to the onesies and toddler T's with ideological expressions and campaign slogans. But, there is some part of me that feels uncomfortable with making my daughter a walking (crawling) billboard for my beliefs.
So far I have resisted the urge - although there is a Che T-shirt hanging as yet unworn in the closet...

isisaquaria said...Absolutely pathetic...children express of parent views through simple enviroment which can be dangerous to free will. While my 13 yo has similar views, but she is able to disagree with me as she chooses. My 6yo is just beginning to to the same--why make a child less than a yr or so be a walking billboard for something they know nothing about?

Jan Bay said...I felt the same way when I first saw them, but I still had to laugh at how lots of Obama campaign promises were worked into funny phrasing. I think that my favorite is the one that says something like "Obama, my diaper needs a change.". The McCain campaign is going to have to be creative to come up with better slogans for the diaper shirt crowd. By the way, the cute stuff hasn't helped a bit in making my decision on whom to vote for.
