Rush Limbaugh's Latest Unpatriotic Venture: Selling 'Club Gitmo' Gear
Leave it to the proto-fascists to find a way to make money off torture, human rights abuses and the degradation of America’s image abroad. Rush Limbaugh has found it acceptable to sell "Club Gitmo" shirts on his Web site, complete with the image of a diving board and swimming pool (water + board, get it?).
To see some models of the T-shirts (earlier versions with only "Club Gitmo" on the left breast), check out Rush’s photo gallery.
From RushLimbaugh.com:
ECONOMIC STIMULUS! President Obama has issued an executive order closing Club Gitmo within a year. So we have adjusted to changing economic times with a new Club Gitmo design. Club Gitmo: When America Was Safe.
New Club Gitmo slogan/logo with diving board and swimming pool (Water & Board) emblazoned on front and back. Available in Institutional Orange only in sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL & XXXXL!
