(CNN) – Barack Obama likes to stress his willingness to work across party lines, but Republican Sen. Larry Craig probably isn't the Illinois senator's top choice when it comes to showcasing his bipartisan credentials.
But campaign buttons mistakenly featuring those two politicians surfaced over the weekend under the Obama campaign's motto "Change You Can Believe In," according to CNN Idaho affiliate KPVI.
The buttons, created by an Ohio-based company called Tigereye Design, was supposed to feature Obama alongside the Democratic Senate candidate in Idaho, Larry LaRocco. A retired editor for the Lewiston Tribune noticed the mistaken buttons and printed them in Sunday's edition.
LaRocco's campaign says the buttons weren't ordered by them, but rather a commercial firm that sells campaign memorabilia.
Craig, who was arrested last year for allegedly soliciting sex in an airport men's room, is not running for reelection.

America's brain washing continues sponsored by Fox News, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and America's Right Wing Public Radio.
The majority of American people do not know how to investigate and learn for there own insight. Everything that the media outlets listed above presents to America it must be gospel. If Fox News said Obama was Japanese 55% of the American people would believe it.
Further, if you ask them how do they know that? They would say I read on the internet or I heard it on Fox News. Those people are so closed minded they refuse to listen to another view point. Fox News wants to demonize Obama as someone evil and out of touch with America and someone who is un-patriotic. So of course; a lot of Americans just follow along with the crowd and say, OK, Dah, Ok.
Thank God some Americans will at least give this man a fair chance to make his case for the presidency of the United States of America.
Obama 08/12
what a convenient mistake
A true repubulican trick. They will resort to anything to continue and try and undermine the good that Barack is. Fortunately, GOD, a higher force, the universe, whatever you want to call it has the last word in all things so it truly does not matter.
Pretty dirty. I would sue.
A third party company makes a mistake on something not ordered by the campaign or affiliated with the campaign in any way and yet you can cue the 'this proves obama cannot lead' bashing comments in three... two... one...
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!
This is histerical!
OMG!! Is there no length people won't go to just to bring this man down. I am so disgusted!!
Just another stinking dirty trick.
Isn't it funny how all of the 'bad' accidental things just 'happen' to be against Obama....
Republicans have no decency.
These will be a collector's item. DO WANT
Strange bedfellows, indeed. Michelle, you need to keep better tabs on Barack's whereabouts at night.
Does Michelle know?
This is why good editing and quality control is so important. Ohio-based company, huh...
It is the republicans spies that did it.
The people are not going to be fooled this year. No more repubs this time around. Not after the last 8 years.
Obama 08/12.
Hmmm, Is the guys who makes the buttons Republican. Nothing is beneath these people to take down Obama anyway they can.
Obama can't even manage his campaign. The joke continues....
who cares?!
He better put Hillary's photo next to him in that buttom, else he will not win in Nov. I know the Obamanuts will start their nasty, derogatory and mean-spirited comments; simply because we, Hillary supporters will not support their candidate unless she is on the ticket.
Just how niave does the McCain and the republican party think we are? This was no mistake – just more of the low level campaigning thats become a trademark of McCain, Bush and their pals in the republican party.
Just reinforces my earlier decision during the primaries to leave the republican party after 42 years and embrace the democrats!
This is beyond funny. Larry Craig a pediphile republican, who play with men in public restrooms. The issue with republicans is that they klive in a moral world, where they get sucked in by their own lies.
CHANGE is realizing that we have choices, that we can listen to the lies or we can seek, truth and find reasoning. We as citizens of America and citizens of the world have now opened our "thrid eye" we have been blinded for too long by the "kniowledge" that the others have been feeding us. The CHANGE we seek is to replace the prism of knoledge with the TRUTH, the LIGHT is there for us all to grasp. OBAMA and Clinton knows that we will not be able to do it alone, it is time to end politics in Washington as usual, OBAMA-RICHARDSON, OBAMA-CLINTON, OBAMA-HAGEL, OBABA-CHANGE-TRUTH-HOPE-LOVE!
IT IS TIME TO TEAR DOWN THE WALLS OF FEAR, LIES, POVERTY, HATE, RACISM, SEXISM, TEAR DOWN THE WALL, OBAMA 2008!
Which guy is on the down low?
Wow!
Trying to affiliate Obama with a sex soliciting republican...Next!
Keep em coming republicans, its not going to work.
OBAMA 08
I bet if you dig deep enough, you'll find a republican at the other end who thought this would be a way to slander the Obama campaign. I don't buy that this is any kind of mistake.
It fits totally into the tactics used by Rove republicans. Slimy, underhanded and contemptuous of the American public.
Criminals, all of them.
Don't they have quality testers before final printing.
This is not the picture or LaRocco.
LOL! OK, I'm an Obama supporter, but that's pretty funny.
I'm a supporter of Senator Obama
Too bad he was pictured with the known sex offender on a political button. And at the same time, worse things have happened.
Why do I not belive this was a "mistake"?
Can't wait for the Republican spin on this one?
haha, Larry Craig wishes!
Likely just another republican trick, to use their own disaster(s) to confuse and inflame the "low-information" type voter.
By repeating this non-story/nonsense, CNN furthers it.
Lets keep to the actual news with actual historical background and fact checking where appopriate please! Thank you.
Obama must have had a wider stance than we were led to believe.
Change you can believe in.
i.e... toe tap, tap, tap, slide.
This is fun. Obama is such a jerk. These two who don't ever quite tell the truth deserve each other. I'm sure they'll get along great! (Maybe they already do.) We all know Mr. Obama would do JUST ABOUT ANYTHING to get elected...
And as for Hillary – she does, indeed, have a day job – and so does Barack if he weren't so full of himself. Braggart-in-Residence.
I can't imagine why any Hillary supporter should cross the street to cast a vote for this man. No one I know will do such a thing. A man of no character and no accomplishment whatsoever – you can't be serious! And Barry doesn't express any interest in Clinton other than her money. So what else is new? The Clintons owe Barack and his gang absolutely nothing. I hope they only give lip service to this charleton and are way too busy to appear with him or for him.
Even Democrats figure out when they've screwed sooner or later. I don't know that I can say that about the DNC, though.
I don't trust this guy for one minute to do anything that is not self serving. McCain is right about Obama.
If you believe Larry Sinclair, it might be that far fetched after all.
You American can really pick em. No wonder your Presidents always end up being jokes once they leave your shores.
Advice to my democrat friends today Gullup tracking shows obama ahead by 8 pts and Democracy corp. shows +5 pts. but Rasmussen and Foxnews shows +3 and +1 pts respectively what does this tell you conservatives are trying make Mccain better that he looks they are trying to decive the American People it is not going to work this time.
And speaking of hiding in the bathroom...
Where are those Obama\Edwards buttons? They're sure to make a big splash now too!
Can you say furriners (foreigners)?
If yes, then you’re xenophobic.
Have you ever heard of Muhammad Ali?
If yes, you’re a Muslim.
Have you ever gone to a public library or happen to know where one is?
If yes, you’re a socialist.
Do you think anything besides military can bring about peace in Iraq?
If yes, you’re liberal and you’re willing to cut and run.
I don't think Larocco has quite as wide a stance as Sen. Craig.
C'mon, CNN – please print real news.
No offence, but am I correct that OBAMA is very much supported and loved by homosextuals? / Not because I do not respect them as humanbeings/
Obama likes change because he is constantly changing who knows maybe he will pick this guy for VP...Actually the pic of them together is rather cute.
The repulican slim machine in full mode
Smells like a neo-con conspiracy to me. They are obviously trying to play down the fact that one of their senator is a notorious homosexual pedophile convict who got elected on the ticket of a party that is a self proclaimed champion of conservative family/religious values.
CNN, WHY DID YOU REPORT THIS, YOU ARE HELPING THE GOP SMEAR OBAMA'S NAME, YOU KNEW THIS WAS LARRY CRAIG, SHAME ON YOU. THE COMPANY THAT DID THIS SHOULD BE SUED FOR CHARACTER SLANDER.
Even members of McSame's Party want to come aboard the Obama Express next stop The Whitehouse '09!!
Nice try Ohio Republicains, they "accidently" printed those buttons. Wow, and you wonder why people like me, left that waste of a state. You got to be kidding me! Have it repubs, pull all the tricks you got out, it makes no difference. Obama will be the 44th President of the United States of America and it will be better to have the first female Vice President of the United States who's husband happen to be a former president. Yep, that will really make you sick. Hopefully then all you racist and bigots will leave the country and we can have a true democracy. You McKlanians are pathetic.
Larry Craig is a Republican that supports John McCain so if this is a joke it backfired on Republicans. Let's see if the McCain camp will denounce Craig as a Republican.
Please Report On The Cancer Mccain Had Removed From His Right Cheek! Do Some Reporting On Mccain And His Health! America Deserves A President Who Is Both Mentally And Physically Fit!
It's such a mistake to include that morally bankrupt, lying, cheating disgrace on this button. Larry Craig deserves better on his campaign button!
THIS IS NEWS? MUST BE A SLOW NEWS DAY CNN! LET'S GET TO THE ISSUES AND YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO INFORM THE PUBLIC!
Why Dont You Show The Bush Mccain Button!
Ummm......Senator Obama's poll numbers go up and all of a sudden a "mistaken" button appears showing him and a republican, Larry Craig of all people.
Come on McSurge or RNC, nice try, but another pathetic attempt to try to stick something negative to Senator Obama's excellent campaign. Senator Obama is a happily married man, with a wonderful wife and two beautiful children – just check People Magazine, Newsweek, Fortune, Essence, I can go on and on. The attempt to continue to smear Senator Obama is TRULY PATHETIC AND DESPERATE.
5,4,3,2,1............here comes all of the usual suspects, Texas Trail Dog, Griff, Mike of Syracuse, PUMA, Lisa and the other Obama haters, to try to put some type of "underlying" motive as to why and how this button somehow relates to Senator Obama or some other falsehood, rather than seeing it for what it is, another attempt at a SMEAR toward our soon to be Commander-in-Chief, Senator Obama. FIGHT THE SMEAR; log onto Senator Obama's website and see the real truths about Senator Obama, not these dishonorable smear tactics!
I am suppose to believe this was a mistake? Right
I think the Obama Hussien seal (seal copied from presidential seal) is better.
Hey that's one way to get the Gay vote.
What a pair. Both won the state of Idaho. Both use the bathrooms so what do you expect.
Two girlie men and looking good.
An image of the mistaken button
CNN if this was a mistake why in H_LL are you make this News!!!
I remember this US senator pleaded guilty to one count of lewd act, because he was soliciting gay sex at an airport restroom.
Is Obama now gay ? .......Or did he pick this man as his VP?....
Larry Craig is the Gay KING of the US senate
LOL.
Obama stay far away from Craig
Obama '08
========these republican do whatever it takes to destroy obama==
A bad odor is in the air. Could it be the Republicans fighting dirty. Do they have any shame. This is why they are going to loose. They are proving Obama right. Same old politics.
We must vote for Obama in record breaking numbers this fall to show them just how sick and tired we are of Bush and McCain.
Now I think that is VERY funny.
Finally a change I can really beleive! Is there somewhere I can get one of these buttons?
Now that's the kind of change you can believe in.......one deception after another......one mistake after another......Obama apparently taking on anyone for the VP slot that will say yes! NO one wants to be "that" tied to Obama. Secretly, everyone expects desaster from the freshman Senator.No repeat of Bush,but let's take on a Republican VP..................I don't find that hard to believe about Obama at all. Sounds like Obama's same wishy washy self.....just trying anything to be Pres. of the United States. Wait to you all meet Obama's cabinet....the Rev Wright for Press Secretary ,Father Pfleger for Whitehouse Spiritual advisor, and Bill Ayers will raise the flag everyday over the Capitol. Camp David will be changed to Camp Trinity.
WOW ! kapow ooow !
Even thought I support Obama, it is pretty funny. Please to not take with an ounce of salt.
No, he is a McSame lover. They have had many closed door sessions together. If we don't ask thet won't tell. Thats the way republicans roll.
Next story please...
Well that does it – Obama's campaign staff can never be president.
SO, WHAT IS THE NEWS? What does Obama have to do with this?
I don't think Obama has ever emphasized working across party lines quite to the extent that McCain has claimed he does. Since Larry Craig is a GOP Senator ... I'm sure he will gladly place his tapping toes next to his fellow and equally repugnant GOP colleague! McCain has flipped on everything else ... so, I’m sure he’ll do the same for good ole’ Larry as well! After all ... it's ANYTHING to win for our VERY SENIOR Senator from AZ.
I have a hard time believing this was a "mistake". Whose Republican pocket do you think the button designer was in? It certainly goes well with the usual Republican campaign strategy: insist on similarities between one's opponent and something negative (despite any evidence) enough times that the general public starts to believe it.
hee hee hee...i knew obama was a closet conservative!
Obviously done on purpose by a McCain supporter as McCain is unable to be competitive on his own merrits.
It won't work, right wingers.
He's all yours! And you have a restroom reserved for him at the Republican Convention.
Ok, let's move on now.....geeeez!
OBAMA / SEBELIUS -08!
Definitively – NOT news.
Your article even points out that they were 3rd party products, the mistake was caught, and they were not released.
Please CNN – Let's see substance!
Maybe it was Obama that Craig was playing footsie with
Why was John Edwards in a hotel bathroom at 3:00 AM? Is he gay now too??
OMG. LMAO!!
Hillary, where are you????
These people won't give it a rest. Tigereye design needs to be ashame of it self. They know darn well what they were doing, trying to smear Obama again. There are so many evil people out there, it's very sad. This is not funny, it just shows how much ignorance is still in this country.
Obama
I wonder what you get when you pair a hoopster with a person having a wide stance? What ever the result I think they look good together.
hahahhahahahahaha
Is Karl Rove and republicans behind this? Neocons use dirty tricks to win elections.
Place your bets on that image showing up in a McCain attack ad.
Larry Craig = Mark Foley= Hypocrites = Republicans
They claim to be against gays, but they themselves are gays.
They claim to be Christians, who care for the Poor and pursue peace....
.....but they give tax cuts to only the very Rich,
.... and enjoy fighting wars with our enemies instead of pursuing peaceful diplomacy
GOP = Grand Old Pharisees
FOX = For Obama's eXecution
Republicans are behind this and McCain, aware. I bet.
The PUMA people should form their own party and Larry Craig can be their spokeswoman.
Who says American's can't compete with the Chinese in business?
OBAMA IN AWKARD SITUATION WITH THE MUSLIM PEOPLE, BY ALLMEANS. I BET YOU DO NOT THE POINT OF THAT.
This is funny, but watch McCain and his thugs say that Obama has flipped sieds!
Oops, well maybe Obama is showing his support for the closeted Republicans
? It was a mistake? Suuuure it was.
This is funny, but shouldn't be on the political ticker. It looks like it has nothing to do with either Obama's or LaRocco's campaigns.. just that commercial firm.
Pretty sad, Tiger Eye. What'd you do – Google "Larry" and "Idaho" and figure there was only one?
Weren't there rumors going around that Obama was gay? This is too funny and coincidental.
how in the world was THAT mistake made?
ZOMG REPUBLICANS!!! Great Right Wing Conspiracy for sure!
Seriously... even the republicans are more subtle than this.
Obamatards Unite!
McCain 08
Erm....im guessing Karl Rove will pounce now?
Now we know why BO has a sore hip. . .
I feel bad for Senator Craieg.......He should file a law suit
They just put the wrong Idaho senator on it. I dont think it was a trick. To those people screaming at the Republican party, get a life, everything is not a cover up, please show some dignity
this is another GOP stunt to derail and discredit the democratic candidat. the gop should be ashamed of themselves
Do you think that John McSurge did not know about this. The GOP is low enough to use their own people in their smear scandles.
Vote for McSurge
Vote for McSurge
Timber (ex dem),
McCain was NOT beaten! He received his injuries from the plane crash, and then squealed like a pig for help from the Vietnamese military. After then he help them as much as he could to debase our POWs there. Why is it that he only gets support from a handful of Vietnam vets? They remember who he is and what he did to them. McCain is NO hero. He is a traitor and has extorted the Vietnamese government into closing the records on our MIAs to protect knowledge of his treason against the USA. Ho hopes to make up for his evil ways by, "winning," the Iraqi war that he helped start. He was one of the original five who proposed attacking Iraq.
ha ahaah – Republicans will do anything............ McCain and Larry craig look better together try that........
On second thought, isn't this the second incident with promotional materials and Senator Obama?
DJ in Tx., I see you thinking. Maybe it wasn't a "mistake."
Freida
You have been misinformed. I am not voting for McCain due to his stance on the war in Iraq, Iran, foreign policy in general, on abortion, the economy, and giving the basic freedoms that American's should have. If you are a true democrat, or Hillary supporter you would do the same. It is about the issues, not personal grudges or age.
This country is going down the tubes and we have people saying they will vote for McCain because Hillary lost the nomination, we have McCain calling his opponent a traitor and the usual "does not support the troops" crap. We have McWar joking about bombing Iran and killing Iranians with cigarettes. We have McSenile telling the media that he knows where Bin Laden is but doesn't want to spill the beans.. what does that mean... is he risking the chance of another attack against becoming the hero.......??? We have people calling Barack scary because the world seems to like him. We have McFart telling us that he knows nothing about the economy but people who are in financial difficulty claiming they trust him. His advisors are someone who caused the Enron debacle and the woman who got fired by HP because she nearly put them out of business. Wow!! some people in America are really really stupid.
Missed you Biffington, Biff – and your right. They have no limits to how low they will go. Yet they love to tout themselves as christian. Wonder what God they worship.
Why do I not belive this was a "mistake"?
Can't wait for the Obama spin on this one!!
Republicans offer the same for America: Dirty /disgraceful politics to distract from the mess this present administration/McCain have created.
MC ALZHEIMER AND HIS TEAM OF GANGSTERS ARE GOING CRAZY.
Why should the Republican party comment on this? Neither they or the Democratic party had anything to do with this, a third party vendor made these, and even if the vendor did it on purpose, there is nothing criminal about this.
Good one!
Get a grip – This should not be a ticker item!
Even as an ardent Obama supporter, I have to admit this is pretty funny. Was it a legitimate mistake? I seriously doubt it. However, Craig is another GOP (read: Gay Old Party) member that they would probably rather kept under the rug...or in the closet if you will.
These replubs are RELENTLESS . They dont sleep at night fixating on Mr Obama and how they can bring him down. This is DESTINY..... you can not & will not alter destiny.......
why is this news?
I think that button is bloody Hialrious!!
Why blame Karl Rove ? He is working with Donna Brazile, is she in on this too??
Maybe Obama ordered them because he was missing the other Larry, Larry Sinclair.
Of course this won't appear!
Not a good choice for a running mate, haha. But can you imagine the polls if he actually chose a decent Republican candidate as a running mate?
McCain/Foley '08 Shuring the Florida molestor vote.
if you spit into the wind, it will blow back on your face.
wow you obama bots just have to blame the republicans for everything dont you. wait maybe it was bill and hillary clinton who ordered them! you should definately blame them too. and when your candidate gets mashed in nov. you can blame everyone but the lameoid obama, as usual.
But campaign buttons mistakenly featuring those two politicians surfaced over the weekend under the Obama campaign's motto "Change You Can .........Shame on you CNN !!!!
CNN - what does this have to do with the issues? This is called the "Political Ticker," right? How about providing the public more relevant info on what's going on in all areas of our government - Congress, Justice Department, etc., - in this forum and allow comments on their activities. How about it?
"LaRocco's campaign says the buttons weren't ordered by them, but rather a commercial firm that sells campaign memorabilia."
That commercial firm that ordered the buttons is the one who sets up and sends in the artwork when making the order. I wonder just which "commercial firm" that might be. CNN, find out more.

"IT IS TIME TO TEAR DOWN THE WALLS OF FEAR, LIES, POVERTY, HATE, RACISM, SEXISM, TEAR DOWN THE WALL, OBAMA 2008"
What are your thoughts on Obama attending a racist anti American Church for twenty years and letting his children attend the hate church too? What does this say about his character? What are your thoughts on Obama displaying the endorsement from the Black Panthers on his campaign website? Could you imagine if McCain had an endorsement from the KKK? What about Obama's comment on "Typical White Person" or "Clinging to guns and religion". Could you imagine if McCain said “Typical Black Person” and “clinging to BBQ Ribs and Watermelon”? What about the time when Obama lied on national TV that he never was in the congregation when there were controversial remarks being said, then a couple of weeks later on national TV said he was there? Liar! What about him consistently changing his views from left to center to win votes? Obama pushes FEAR every day to the American people with the economy, fuel, and Iraq yet he has no real plan just talk.
I used to have respect for Obama in the beginning and thought he was about Change and Hope, but now I think Rev. Wright was right about one thing when he said, “Obama is a typical politician who will sliver to the left or right to get what he wants”.
Obama is a racist, anti American, a liar, a typical politician, a hater, someone who pushes fear on the American people and should resign immediately.
Independent thinker who supports the Constitution of the United States of America from all enemy’s foreign or domestic (Obama)!
Republics..... can't win unless they cheat....
I am a Democrat WHO WILL NOT fall in line however, it is clear that this "mix up" was no mistake. I think it's funny!
I wouldn't be so quick to blame the Republicans for this either.
Perhaps this is a subliminal message to Obama that the internet rumor about his --uh–let's say– alleged alternative lifestyle may be in full swing after the convention.
However, if the internet rumors are true, I NOW know why it was so hard for him to give up his "friendship" with Mr. Wright. -- But we are going to keep it on the DOWN LOW!
THE MISTAKE WAS NO MISTAKE. I'M SURE OBAMA HAS BEEN SEEKING HIM FOR A CLOSED MEETING.
And he went to the hopsital with a hip problem.....LOL
I had a good laugh on this. Huh, Larry has made his way into the Obama camp? An all inclusive campaign for "change we believe in". You like their vote so they had to send one of their top guys to represent their interest. All these will not work this time. I am sure there is a timed bomb underneath this. Very soon it will be worse – when Mr Rove joins the rep campaign. Bring all the smears and we will still vote for change.
I thought the majority of Republkicans were soooooo religious – The "EVANGELICALS OF THE WORLD" that are sooooo RIGHTEOUS". Well, I think "dirty" campaigning is a SIN because it dwells on LIES – FEAR Mongering and "TWISTING" the truth!!!
That's the CHANGE we see in OBAMA – Change you can BELIEVE in!!!
I'll bet Obama's former limo driver is jealous. He thought he was the only one! HA! HA!
RIDICULOUS!!!
There you go CNN, aren't you just the fantastic at being fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOT you aught to be shamed for this crap you pull each and every time you can get away with it. Can we look forward Borger to look real "sad" and say, well, this is really not a help" but at the same time she needs to wipe the smirk to be believed. Ya, that will happen NOT.
Sooooo you must (CNN) feel real smug that you again have do such a "good" job.
How about making a big splash about the serious meeting Mr. Obama is haveing at this very moment!!!!!!!Instead you have this dead looking guy explaining about having removed a mole, like oh my god will you get serious.
McCain has cancer he is not well (countless reports about this subject0 you can tell he is sick and has bad memory and really bad thinking pattern each and every time the guy opens his mouth.
Get real CNN.
Freud said "There are NO accidents"
Obamabots dismiss everything as Republican slime. Even what we know to be true. It is a convenient way to avoid cognitive dissonance.
If i was Larry I would fuming.....what did he do to deserve that. I think he has a lawsuit on his hands with that one
This is why I am no longer a republican. They lie, cheat and look at the mess they have gotten us into. Go Obama!!!
This is what happens when your nominee is selected by a few: SOROS FOR ONE. AFTER his manufactured world tour this is the least of worries.
Anyone notice that Obama taps his foot a lot?
HAHAHA
Perhaps this partially explains Obamas pain in his thighs?
Obama this....Obama that....Obama did this....blah, blah, blah - now that he's returned from his around the world trip, the US Army could use a few good men - he should join.
This is the SMEAR & FEAR that the republicans are so GOOD at doing..........throw gays, minorities, hispanics, women, children, immigrants right under the bus..........as long as you're a gun-tooting, bible thumping, racoon eating, hillibilly truck driving, right-wing bigot, they think everything else is beneath their high horses...for the republicans to try to link one of their own, Larry Craig to Obama is downright despicable and an insult to americans, who will come out to the polls and drive the dubya's and mcsames out of the White House.
the republicans have put america economy in the tank in the tone of $250 BILLION DOLLARS....now this? they think this is funny?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOT THIS TIME!!!!
Maybe Larry Craig's stance is so wide, it even crosses the aisle (just like it crosses the partition in the Minneapolis Airport!)
That was no mistake, it was a deliberate slam, and will not stick like all the others before this. all of these so called conservatives who like to spout religious and family values for the things they say and do should rememeber, God does not like ugly, and he is always watching. this is not Christian or conservative behavior, get it together.
This is from the "Campaign of Whiners".
The right wing noise machine at it again. NOT COOL!
Yeah Right! Wanna buy a bridge? This was no mistake. just another nasty GOP attack.
The GOP are slim, the bottom of the barrel. I mean, honestly.... If you want my vote, you better appeal to my intelligence.
Republicans trying it again...NOT THIS TIME, NOT THIS TIME
BARACK THE VOTE !!!
This is NO mistake. Someone did this thinking it would be just another rumor that the Obama campaign would have to waste time and money to explain.
Why wou;ld CNN even print this?? Shouldn't you worry more about economic plans and whether steps are being taken to ensure everyone registered is able to vote and that the machines are reliable?? How about fact checking the McCain ad you keep giving free air time for??
You know I got upset when Hillary lost and still not over it. However my VALUES have got to stay in tacted. I AM voting for Obama come Nov. It is the right thing because of the values I believe in. OBAMA 2008
If the shoe fits....?
Two words: Quality Control.
Democrats can't even get a button right, and you want them to run the country? Scary.
Typical Karl Rove tactics written all over this.
McCain says he rather lose an election than lose a war.
Nice punchline McCain, but you do realize that if you lose the election, you will "lose" the Iraq War that no one wants to see continue anyway.
The Bush Mcain Republican did it.
They are going down this year.
Obama 08/12.
Henry n New York -- The repulican slim machine in full mode( and
CNN)
wonder if the "someone" who ordered those buttons is from the RNC or a friend of Karl Rove? Just the sort of thing they would do. Too bad this election has become another trove of name-calling. Artlicles galore on the difficulties of being black, bringing up racism over and over, nothing at all on the limitations caused by advancing age. Odd, isn't it? Both of these guys are going to make mistakes in speaking that don't mean much – but McCain is still fighting the cold war and Vietnam in his head and that's way more dangerous than someone who takes the time to think things through and understands that the commander-in-chief has to balance all of the potential war theaters, not just one. Show me the nation that has won any war on four fronts (Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran)? We simply don't have the power to do what McCain wants to do. Clearly he is the one who "doesn't understand."
Oh please, this was a stupid mistake. Everyone complaining about this should take a breath and learn to appreciate the sheer hilarity of Such a Liberal standing beside such a conservative idiot. The pairing is hysterical. Btw, I'd laugh just as hard had it been Bush & Elliot Spitzer. Without humor life is miserable folks, please don't forget that.
The McCain campaign has gone to the lowest of the low if they put out this nonsense for people to see. They have been doing nothing but whine and attack Senator Obama since he embarked on a world wide tour which turned out successfully, quite contrary to their expectation.
The man looked Presidential amongst the World's Who is Who!!!!!
He has all it takes to be President of the United States of America.
Please leave him alone and face the facts. We want to hear substance, not unnecessary attacks : "Obama this, Obama that". Talk facts and stop all the "Obama is naive, Obama does not understand" YES, HE UNDERSTANDS QUITE ALRIGHT. HE IS NOT NAIVE. GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE A WINNER.
Well, maybe Larry Craig has finally decided to come out of the closet and they're going for the gay vote...
Guess McBush and his administration have run out of lies to tell, so they resort to this. Doesn't matter, I don't really expect anything more from the republicans!!
Obama '08
That is very funny.
well, now I know why ol Barack got that hip problem he has a nevous foot and a Wide spread too
ps Hillary kicked your skinny butt in the debates too!!!
OK, now he is pandering to the gay movement!!!!! This guy will stoop to anything. Just go away Nobama, we don't like you!
McCain 08
Mike, TX, you meant McCain
American ‘Values’ voters and forever-bitter Hillary backers who can't help themselves but rise to the bait; as if it’s still a wonder why the rest of the world not only hates the United States, but laughs at it too.
Mistake my butt! Bunch of Jerks!
McCain and the Republicans have no shame. And McCain is far from principled with his andhis party's dirty tricks and lies about Obama even in his most recent ad on Obama. McCain continues to demonstrate he is far from being presidential and leading our country honestly, ethically and morally. or with high standards of decency.
My best friend lives in Boise Idaho and sent me this button yesterday- What a hoot! Wide-stance Craig always seems to find himself in the wrong place at the wrong time! I'm a big OBAMA supporter and the sight of this "campaign" button made me squirm!
Nice try Ohio Republicains, they "accidently" printed those buttons. Wow, and you wonder why people like me, left that waste of a state. You got to be kidding me! Have it repubs, pull all the tricks you got out, it makes no difference. Obama will be the 44th President of the United States of America and it will be better to have the first female Vice President of the United States who's husband happen to be a former president. Yep, that will really make you sick. Hopefully then all you racist and bigots will leave the country and we can have a true democracy. You McKlanians are pathetic.
My comments cannot be accepted so I copied one.
KARL ROVE ORDERED THEM.
i feel bad for mr. Larocco (although this will be bring him some good publicity; i hope he's not a crazy neoCON cuz it could help him win).
soldier4OBAMA – "This is beyond funny. Larry Craig a pediphile republican, who play with men in public restrooms"
Larry Craig is not a pedophile. He is just gay. Just because someone is gay does not mean that they are a pedophile.
No weapon formed against Sen. Obama will prosper.
Obama 08
Is that Karl Rove I smell?
Or did I step in something rancid?
anyone smell a rove tactic?
Everyone loves a winner.
Obama '08
Frieda, NYC and other PUMA people:
We do not want, nor need you bitter, pathetic Clinton supporters, so don't get it twisted.
I'm surprised it's not a picture of LARRY SINCLAIR!
At least they didn't show Craig's foot going into Obama's oval!
CNN...why would you post this nonsense??? This goes along the same line as the article on how a convicted, supsequently excuted (rightfully so) child rapist supposedly endorsed Obama....CNN why are you trying to SMEAR Barack with these COMPLETE FALSEHOODS??
OBAMA 08, 12 the truth.
It just blows my mind that people are blaming EVERYTHING on a Republican conspiracy. Get a life! I bet 99% of the population wouldn't even have know that it was Craig and not LaRocco on the button
This only bites the Republicans back harder.
pls bro you can stay with any body you like because you are the world leader for peace
Could this be compared to McShame using his Surge on Cindy while he was out cheating and still married to his injured wife?
You people need to LIGHTEN UP!!! It was a mistake...something that we can laugh at!
It's stuff like this that turns people away from politics. The RNC seems to think the only way to win is to scare people or spread crap like this. Think again! Some of us do know the difference, we're tired of it and we'll see you in November.
That's right; blame the Republicans. What idiots you people are. If by some chance Obama wins, we will see who's talking after he takes office and we are in a real mess. Yes, people need to research the candidates and not be influenced by the liberal news outles, ie; CNN, MSNBC and others. Liberals they are. And most of their anchors were educated at liberal colleges by liberal left wing professors who would do anything to undermine the government. Obama needs to be stopped at all costs and by whatever means necessary.
McCain/Clinton campaign workers are behind these buttons no doubt.
Those buttons will be worth a lot of money a few years from now (if Obama becomes president, that is...)
This has nothing to do with the price of rice ... or milk, or gas! Move on to some worthwhile news reporting, please. Thank you.
the only thing obama seems to change is his friends where are all the people he started with.
sometimes you just gotta laugh.
the universe does have a sense of humor, eh?
Obama 08
I guess Obama as changed his mind on his religion. in the people's magazine interview he says he does not buy gifts for his children on christmas or their birthdays.guess what neither do muslims.it's against their beliefs. how many co-incidences do we need before we get the picture
Yep...the more I stay in tune with these blogs, Texas Trail Dog, always appear, he must be unemployed and very bored with his life, because the more I read his blogs, the more HATE HE IS DISPLAYING....go and get a life Trail Dog...
Oh, I get it. your just not a happy person...maybe if you show some kindness your life will improve..
Obama, is a great leader.
The oddest Batman ad Robin I have ever seen.
Dude! Craig and Obama are so gay!
If you alow this crap to continue, you deserve falling dollars other countries hating you deficites that choke progress idiots as presidents wars internal strife.
You are really stupid if you allow this to continue and not step up and protest this crap. stop with cnn if they continue to post garbage like this
Wolf if you have poeple on the air stop sticking your stupid interuptions so they have to say what you want them to say
I am out of country but I can vote and now it will be for Obama and I will push every yank I talk to to go that way
These two men are probably more alike than different.. I would buy one of the buttons. Just tell me where.
Independent Voter....
********I can't imagine why any Hillary supporter should cross the street to cast a vote for this man. No one I know will do such a thing. A man of no character and no accomplishment whatsoever – you can't be serious! And Barry doesn't express any interest in Clinton other than her money. So what else is new? The Clintons owe Barack and his gang absolutely nothing. I hope they only give lip service to this charleton and are way too busy to appear with him or for him.********
LMAO....
who are you kidding....clinton and 'all her money' came crawling to Obama to pay off her debts......
Get over it already....SHE LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish someone would report on McCain's infidelity with Cindy! No one knows this, but it's true. Hillary's women wouldn't be rushing over to him if they knew his history!
Craig wasn't just arrested. He was convicted. Bad Karma to those responsible. Shame on the Republican Dirt Machine. NOT NEWS! Bad reporting is always bad reporting. Find a story.
At lesat the button did not spill black berry juice on one face.
Well,well,well, I knew that I did not like the Republicans for some reason and this is the reason why. Them ( the republicans) and the rest of the dirty dogs are nipping at the heels of Obama because they are afraid of any one that have a brain and can think for themselves. The younger generation are a smart lot and they don't need someone dictating to them who to vote for and to listen to the lies of the older people. This is how Hitler won.
OBAMA 08
Any American who has researched Obama's voting record would be smart enough NOT to vote for NOBAMA! Anybody who voted against making English the language of the United States is not fit to be Commander-in-Chief. If you check the record of Obama you will see he voted against English as our national language in an ammendment to immigration bill 1348 on June 6, 2007. Obama, KEEP THE CHANGE! You are qualified to be our Commander-in-SHEEP! Thanks for your service FUTURE PRESIDENT MCCAIN!!
Completely appropriate!
He's going to give us change all right – change we won't want or believe in!!!!
I want one of these buttons! Of all the crazy stuff this has topped it off! LOL!!!!!! I can't stop laughing about it!
vote hillary for vp.
No harm no foul and I'm sure Sen. Obama got a laugh out of it. What's more important might be the obvious lack of leadership at that "Ohio company" for that kind of mistake to happen at all.
CONSIDER THE SOURCES,,,,CNN,,,YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR REPORTING THIS STORY , WHICH AMOUNTS TO A REPUBLICAN ATTACK AD.
THE SOURCES???......according to CNN Idaho affiliate KPVI.
The buttons, created by an Ohio-based company called Tigereye Design
SO...CNN...ANY NEWS ABOUT THE OHIO BASED COMPANY OR THE CONSERVATIVE IDAHO AFFILLIATE?????????
VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA ... IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO !!!!!!!!!
In other breaking news from the non-partisan network known as CNN... McCain had a piece of skin removed!
See? I TOLD you we should have had Hillary...they wouldn't have put Larry Craig next to HER!
I would love to show these buttons to all of my friends. How can I get them? Ha ha ah ahhha !!!!!!!
yeah. oops right? like oops heres 10,000 tax free campaign dollars. Thanks.
Obama 08
Alexander Mooney is a best friend of McBush,McCheney McLooser. Hannity and Rush .
Cnn take these creeps along and move in with Fox by this printing you have just proved you are one in the same .
Too funny obama pictured next to a homo. Only in OH. A change we can believe in, right.
Posting these vulgar comments on here about Obama is beneath "The most respected name in news". Where is your famous moderation machine? Or, do you just use moderation to screen out Obama supporters?
America is no country for bitter old men.
Slow news day. Grow up, CNN.
If the shoe fits... ha ha...
Pretty funny...
It is odd how CNN closes all the comments area for important stories, but keeps this one open. CNN thinks we are stupid!!!!
JOHN MCCAIN DID THIS.
Another Hussein Nobama plot! He will do anything for publicity, even bad publicity.
Mike, TX,
did you even read the article?
Apparently, this company either doesn't know of Larry Craig or it has nefarious things up its cranial quarter. Isn't is interesting that nothing seems to work concerning efforts to deride Obama by what merits any? Now, putting Craig with Obama would suggest some kind of alliance with Obama's philosophy and that of homosexualism but this, like all of these efforts, will not fly either!
Yeah right this was on purpose probably paid by mcsame surrogates..
Another reason why American hates the media
lol LARRY CRAIG AND OBAMA....LMAO..NOW THATS SATTIRE...
Hey Independent Voter
How more obvious can you be? You obviously have your own agenda for hating Obama but you are so pathetic as to blame your insignificant rantings on his inexperience...... The real facts compared to your delusions are that Barack Obama is a very well-educated African American male who has worked his way through one of the top schools in the country, a successful lawyer and senator. He deserves to be in the position that he is in. NO amount of idiotic, stupidity or hate can ever change the fact that Obama is the next President of the United States!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get over your hatred and lies!
Freudian slip
Freida, NYC – You are absolutely RIGHT.
It better be Hillary's picture as VP on that button or he can kiss many of us 18 million GOODBYE!
Latest USA Today/Gallup poll released this afternoon:
McCain – 49%
Obama – 45%
Obama needs Hillary's voters....
Mistake, yeah right. And I have some lakefront properties in the Gobi Desert for sale! I'd like to know the name of the Ohio company so that I can be sure not to use them for any promotional items. It wouldn't be McCain Promotional Enterprises, Inc. would it?
Obama '08!
AND THE SLIM ROLLS ON
You liberals need to stop making fun of Larry Craig. The man is not gay. You make fun of the "wide stance" as if you've never had to use the restroom before.
Of course, Lisa, Linda, Texas Trail Toast are out there spewing their usual nonsensical statements.
It was a mistake, let's leave it at that, shall we? I admit it's a bit suspicious, though...
Freida, NYC July 28th, 2008 2:04 pm ET
He better put Hillary's photo next to him in that buttom, else he will not win in Nov. I know the Obamanuts will start their nasty, derogatory and mean-spirited comments; simply because we, Hillary supporters will not support their candidate unless she is on the ticket.
======================================================
Otherwise known as "blackmail". Keep your vote, Obama doesn't want or need your vote, keep holding it hostage until Hillary runs in 2016. How do you even know that Hillary wants the VP slot? She would have more power as a Supreme Court Justice, or Attorney General. Besides, Obama won't select her as VP, too untrustworthy, like her followers.
FUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!
If you want really slanted news," Fox News" is it,owned by a non American Rupert Murdock,a man without a clue.
I am so with Independent Voter. That's what I'm talking about, Obama is and empty suit with a ego so huge leading people around like the pied piper. I am a Hillary supporter and would never vote for Obama. i don't like guy, don't trust him at all, and sick of the media running this whole election.
I really miss the humor so many of you see here. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a "dirty trick" a la Tricky Dick Nixon.
This is crazy ! It always amazes me with what they come up with. I think they need to publicly apologize to Obama. I mean a BIG apology !
You conspiracy theorists sound like Ross Perot who cited "Dirty Republican Trickers". Suggest that you look under your bed and in your closet before turning in at night. LOL
In a campaign dominated by style, much ado about buttons is no surprise.
The old conservative right is getting very old. That generation is dying. After all, the 60's generation is on Social Security. The Leave It To Beaver" crowd is going away. Barack Obama is going to win regardless if for nothing more than the lack of Republicans. World War Two vets are dying at thousands per day. The number grows every day. Get ready for an Obama administration where the United States Constitution is going to means something once again. Hooray.
Sounds like Nixon's ghost is hard at work, or maybe Rove was hard at work in Ohio. Really, how stupid to the Republicans think the American public is? Not stupid enough to fall for this garbage. Must be a slow news day at CNN.
Oh, come on, fellow Obama supporters. Sometimes mistakes are just that: mistakes. If there is actual proof that this is a dirty trick, find it. Or else, you just look paranoid.
Personally, I think this is funny. But I think I'll wear the REAL Obama button that came in the mail today.
Hey, I support Obama completely, and I think this is freaking hillarious. You gotta know those buttons are going to be collectors items like the newspapers back in 2000 touting the Al Gore win...
I fully support and plan to vote for Obama. But that is funny. What a flub by that media firm. No more accounts for them.
Obama 08/12
All you PUMAs, aka Republicans. Ask yourself: Do you really want McCain as President for 4 years? He has a Geo Bush personality. An old frat boy, who almost flunked out of the academy, has only gotten this far (first) due to family connections and (second) a rich wife. He is disrespectful of women, including his wife - yes the same as W - have you ever noticed the body language between W and Laura. He's always running away from her or they are ignoring each other.. Anyway, good for Hillary. I'm proud of her. She has a lot to give to the country. She lost because she ran an awful campaign and was hubris. But she is a mature person who looks forward and not backward.
Kids will vote for Obama no matter who he's with.
They should throw in John Edwards holding his love child to make this the funniest button EVER! You guys need to lighten up over there on the left...not everything is a conspiracy led by the "evil" Republican party. McCain 2008,
LOL...What a joke. The republicans don't stand a chance.
For the past 7+ years George and his buddies have made fools of all the hard working citizens of this country. They are departing from their position leaving this country Billions of dollars in debt – a debt we all (republicans and demoncrates) will be paying off for the next 200
+ years. And one of their half brain decides having this pen made was cute/funny. I hope that they find it funny when we the citizens start having them arrested for stealing from us.
I"m a democrat and think this is so funny but I haven't figured out how you can blame the Republicans. How about the people who make the buttons just making a mistake. The Republicans are the same as you & I just believe in different things.
I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that it was a mistake.
What's interesting is the posts here trying to link Obama and Craig. Craig is a right-win nut job who went on TV to call Bill Clinton a "bad boy" for having an affair.
A right wing hypocrite....they seem to be multiplying again this year.
sure, the mistake is like the microphone being power unknowingly, this sort of thing require rigorous proofing, it was intentional
No dirtier than the media putting Obama on everything that comes out and forgetting about McCain, who is also running for President. Now that seems dirty, biased, and premeditated.
Guess they met in the Mens Room at Heathrow.
It's amazing how these "accidents" happen. No one with any brains buys it for a second. Do you really expect anyone to believe a company that makes political buttons could put the image of a bathroom stall cowboy next to Obama's by accident? Even so, I want one of these buttons. It'll be worth maybe $3.00 in about 10 years....oh....that's right..that's how much they cost now...ah..nevermind.
This is off the subject, but I note there are several Hillary supporters STILL playing the broken record that Obama can't win without Hillary.
Looks like he's doing just fine without her. Have you actually been paying attention? Except for a day or two a couple of weeks ago, she's been missing in action. I'm not sure I'd want someone as my right-hand woman (VP) who is a no show, anyway. And no, kids, she did not win the popular vote (no matter what the cuckoo statistics on the PUMA site say). She did not win the majority of delegates. She did not win the majority of superdelegates. She lost. End of story. Deal with it.
This is a sad commentary on our political system. We have young men and women dying in a foreign country so that those people can vote in a democratic system. How shameful and loathesome have we become as a nation to try to denegrate a fellow citizen for running for the Presidency. If you don't want to vote for Obama based on his policies and political views then don't vote for him. It is sad to read some of the vile and nasty comments about this man and truth be told it is SIMPLY BECAUSE HE IS BLACK and you come off with all of this foolishness to justify your rabid racist hearts. I was a Hillary supporter who is enthusiastically voting for Obama because we need a change in this country. Bush and Cheny need to be in jail and McCain does not have a clue. Although I don't agree with McCain I would not try to personally attack this man simply for sport. You wonder why our nation is in such shambles and it is not only the government that has failed us but also WE THE PEOPLE need to examine our own hearts and what role we have played in being complacent. Much of this negativity against Obama is shrouded in the most insidiuos poison in our country and that is racsim. I applaud the man for at least have the guts to stand up and say we can do better as a nation and to try to make a difference. What have you done lately to make a difference in your family, in your community, in your city in your state in OUR Nation. If you want to vote for mcCain because you believe in his policies then vote for him,; we are still a free nation. Stop the silly and childish name calling and stupid and ignorant rants that make us look like a Super Power that is losing our luster and position in the world. We've had 8 years of corruption, unjust wars, economy in the tank, people can't afford to live and if you want to continue those policies and if McCain wins, you don't have a right to complain. I would rather take a chance on a new fresh beginnig than to continue down the same dark path we've been on for years. it is time for a change. If you are an intelligent adult then have an intelligent argument and point of view and stop sounding like children in the schoolyard fighting over a ball. Grow UP!
Felice Judkins, Fredericksburg, VA
This Democratic presidential primary season has caused so much pain already. A fact that a young senator (who was unknown till few years ago) who is only a presumptive Democratic nominee is going around the world speaking as though he represents America (and the world) is not a very good picture. You wonder whose fault is it, and then we just picture a dysfunctional government. The approval rating of the congress is below 10% yet no one seems too distressed about it, it’s dysfunctional all around. Both Republicans and Democrats are invisible.
McCain is a lone voice but we started to hear him well. Both McCain and Hillary sustained clear voice and I hope they both will keep it clear. McCain is much more careful with the media now. We learned so much from watching the way the American media treated Hillary Clinton (I can’t still believe how they got away with it… but we will remember).
This a phoney news release by FOX news.
They were not ordered by LaRocco or Obama
campaigns.
They were made for the False News Network and CNN fell for it!!!!
Before you Obamanuts get your underwear in a knot, this was an honest mistake from a firm that's based in Ohio that doesn't know which Senator from Idaho to picture. Talk about conspirators–folks, look in the mirror. It's funny. Go read Consumer Reports inside back cover. It'll be there in a couple of months.
I cannot believe the idiotic level of pure hatred contained in some of these posts!. Sen. Obama had nothing to do with this. I doubt that it is a mistake. Rather, it looks like smearing on the part of some desperate Rupublicans and PUMAS.
As long as Obama does not have a "wide stance"
Dirtbags stick together! No more Dems, no more Republicans!! VOTE GREEN. Cynthia McKinney 08!!
This was no mistake.
It's funny how so many people here are complaining about how 'unfairly' Obama is being treated. Obama is getting 85% of the news in this election, yet his coverage is apparently 'unfair' to the liberals in America. The first commentor here said 'right wing public radio' yet tries to make the inference that conservatives are brainwashed. The 'Public Radio' is NPR and is liberal as all get out. The 'Public Television' is PBS and also is liberal. So-called 'Right Wing Talk Radio' is private and run by the free-market. Their ratings are up because the free market works, unlike the drivel on NPR. But liberals want to take away Fox News and Talk Radio, even though it is market based. They have 85% of the media, but apparently that's not enough since liars like Gore and Kerry couldn't get elected, and no matter how much press Obama gets he can't build a sizeable lead against a very weak candidate in McCain.
Just more Republican, right wing, midwestern Christian values! It's funny that Republicans won't confront their own, Senator Larry Craig, for his lewd and illegal bathroom antics but they'll use Craig to try and smear Obama. Hey Republicans, Larry Craig is one of your "boys," remember.
This really is funny. Like one post said, the button is an appeal from the gay community to vote for Obama. Thanks, Ohio. And we thought you guys were homophobic. LOL
this was no mistake – it's just another low black against an educated black man that ignorant fools in this day and age still hate - oppression continues on to the black race by whites and foreigners the very people that Obama wants to unite - it's a very sad day but people are ignorant and hateful still and it will never end toward black people.
sad sad sad day.
God Bless the good, loving, and caring people
Some of you people are ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC!!!
You really believe that it was a Republican trick?!?!??
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. And this coming from people like Captain Smash (1st poster on this thread) who writes, "Further, if you ask them how do they know that? They would say I read on the internet or I heard it on Fox News."
And yet all you crazy, foolish lefties will convince yourselves that Republicans had something to do with the buttons, with ZERO evidence to back it up!!! LOL!!!
Mistake or Republican smear campaign?
OBAMA Supporter all the way – I totally agree with you all the way.
OBAMA/CRAIG 2008???
This is funny!!!!
Well, it doesn't really matter whose picture is on a button with The Fraud, Obama!! It makes larry Craig look good!
Obama is ARROGANT, CORRUPT, INEXPERIENCED and has more baggage than United Airlines!!!
This is obviously one of McCain supporters dirty campaign tactics.
maybe Obama hurt his hip in an airport restroom, hyper-extending it in some foot tapping effort.
Beauties at ease.
Look better if they had a Toilet seat for a frame. Don't aee a fat lip. Poor boy, just do some more Flip , Flops
I WANT ONE!
Obama / Craig ... a toe tapping duo. That is soooo funny.
Two peas in a pod, altho their sexual orientation isn't the same they sure look like the belong with each other.
Dumbama thought it was a compliment.
More Republican dirty work. When will these people grow up?
I know, when the other guy is leading (Obama), use cheap shots to disparage him. Perhaps you folks should be worrying about McInsane's SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE in Iraq. Clearly the surge can't identify sectarian violence and like it's biggest promoter, it doesn't understand the complexites of kurdish, Sunni, Shi'ite and other ethnic Iraqis struggle for existance.
The Republicans just don't get it. You claim to be God-fearing and Godly, yet you are always involved in evil behavior. Go figure..
That would definitely be a "change"!
The unethical smear, brainwashing and fear mongering continues among people like the McCain campaign, Hillary Clinton Supporter Chirsty Adams who is so angry to the point she is making fear mongering statements aganist President Candidate Barack Obama outrageously questioning Obama's abilities to lead even after his spectacular visit to the Middle East I really believe this woman is a closet racist because her arguments baseless,others is Sean Hannity Rush Limbaugh and others. Everytime someone make negative remarks against Obama, Obama suppoters go out and register 10 -20 new register of voters throughout the United States. Obama Nov.
Are we really asked to believe the photo of Larry Craig was a mistake?
Not many of us fell off a turnip truck...dirty politics is dirty politics. We recognize it.
I bet the Obama campaign did this on purpose, just like they released his prayer at the Western Wall. Has anybody read George Orwell's "1984" or "Animal Farm?" Didn't think so. You people have no clue what you are asking for.
Just say no to "Big Brother Obama."
Some random business trying to make money prints buttons with Obama and Larry Craig, and we're supposed to care...why?
Why is this even news?
Good grief.
...tap tap tap.....
Are we sure Rove hasn't returned?...
NOW let the games begin, Nasty, dirty vile tricks the the bag is opening up.
SHame , Shame shAme
I'll bet Larry Craig would love to be "with" Obama
Politics and Barack make strange bedfellows...?
They should have put B. Hussein's photo next to Jeremiah Wright's. That would be much worse than Craig.
sad thing is the conservatives will believe this as true because pins and slogans is what they go by thats why they think Bush is a patriot because he wheres a flag pin
sorry, dems–but butons were made up by dems–can't blame repubs for this one–
To Mike TX
Barack is doing a fine job of managing his campgain. Hilary didnt do so hot running up a 20million in the red?
Not only will the right wing stop at nothing to bring Obama down, but the news stations that report such triviality are part of the concern.
Yeah there needs to be an investigation and law suit.
That'd put a stop to dirty tricks like that.
Wow! The lengths they will go to to try and brainwash the American people. Not this year, not this time! This is the year that the American people take back the government. Vote smart!
OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sad part of this story is all of you who think this is some right wing plot. Geeez give me a break. Things get printed wrong all the time. Oh wait, look its the black helicopters coming to get you . . . .. .
Neoconb dirty tricks! again.
SLY FOX AGAIN!!
FOX NEWS LIES AGAIN!
Slander and attack any who oppose the neo-fascist nazi regime ...FOX
SLY FOX!
Is this really a news story? Or is it proof that money can get your insulting innuendo's across through the mainstream media for you? Why would anyone print these buttons? Why would anyone accidentally misprint them? Why would anyone jump at the chance to expose such misprinted buttons to the media? If John McCain were on a misprinted button next to Larry Craig, would that make the news?
So? Didn't Obama get busted in a limo with a guy prostitute? I seem to remember a story about that.
He and Craig should get along.
Sounds like it might be one designer at that company who wanted to attack Obama. It is not unheard of. To all the Obama haters out there, you don't have to vote for McCain. Bob Barr 08.
It's satire people. Can't you even take a joke? Goodness we're Americans; its part and partial of political life.
It is sad that we are having in this country now poletical radicals
This is not newsworthy. This belongs in a tabloid not on CNN.
What a BS story!!!
It is obvious that CNN and the other networks are falling into
the hands of the right wing press!!
Why don't they show the pictures of McCain hugging Craig and Craig hugging Bush??????
These were ordered by the racist FOX news network!!!
I hope Tigereye designs goes out of business, this is bad business. I guess the Republican NursingHome Committee did not take pointers from the Clintons that the voters are not interested in this kind of garbage.
A few predictions for reality impaired people:
1) Obama will likely be elected president.
2) He will be subject to the same limitations as any other holder of the office (see article one and two of the U.S. Constitution).
3) George W. Bush will simply go back to Crawford at the end of his term. He will not be charged with any crimes, just as he has not been impeached.
4) No matter who is elected president there will be enemies of the United States, who could care less which party is in office, who will seek to hurt us.
5) Day to day life in the United States will be more or less the same in 2012 as it is now.
Carl Rove's initials are no doubt on the reverse side of the buttons.
Hillary's image belongs on the buttons!
Is this another trick by CNN to keep ratings up?
I think McMole would be a better match for Craig. Same party, etc.
Ha Ha Ha
This looks about right.
What's the matter Obamabots, did the dirty scoundrels in Ohio, hit a HOT button here. Mistakes do happen. The worst mistake will be electing Obama as President.
HE'S TO BLAME FOR 911, HIGH GAS PRICES, THE MORTGAGE PROBLEM AND NOW CRAIG. WOW, WHAT'S NEXT.
