I think this is a hilarious shirt. It trades on the famous print image of
Obama by Shephard Fairey, who might turn out to be the one with a case to be pissed off. He's a designer and illustrator with a fondness for propaganda, and specifically the visual signature of social realist stuff from the 1930s and later. Site here: http://obeygiant.com/
The goggles make it sort of self-satirizing, as does the substitution of SWIM for HOPE. Yes, I understand the non-partisan nature of people's objections, but holy cow, doesn't this seem like a good-natured riff given that Obama is a local pol in Chicago?
