Obama Historic Victory Plate

By Uppity Woman on November 21, 2008 at 3:30 AM in Current Affairs

Well, you can all die happy now. The official Barack Obama Historic Victory Plate is now available for the low low price of $19.99 As Seen On TV!.

….And just like Barack Obama, it is gold-plated on the outside while you have no idea what’s underneath the glitz–but it worries you a lot.

As a bonus, you will get a US Mint Commemorative George Washington Dollar Coin, which is really cool because, although he has already been called FDR, JFK, RFK, MLK and Lincoln without actually having done anything notable in his entire life, nobody has compared Obama to George Washington yet.

zorbeezFrankly, I’m kind of disappointed. I was hoping they would say BUT WAIT! If you order now, you can get a set of Billy Mays Zorbeez Multi Purpose Cleaning Cloths!!!

I think I will just hold out till they offer the Barack Obama Three Dollar Bill. That seems more appropriate.

historicvictoryplate

Now you can own a piece of history! Celebrate the victorious election of our 44th President of the United States, America’s first African American Commander, with the commemorative plate from the American Historic Society™. The Historic Victory Plate™ is a priceless work of art featuring the triumphant President-Elect surrounded by the American flag and spectacular fireworks celebration. This first collectors issue plate celebrates with the inscription “Change Has Come” scripted in 22K Gold text. The back displays the seal of the American Historic Society and documents the historic electoral and popular vote totals on election day.

    Are you doing this to torture me? Really. Ughhh….

    • http://uppitywoman08.wordpress.com Uppity Woman

      LOL!

    • socalannie

      Haha! Actually, I’m so sick of seeing him everywhere myself. You can’t go anywhere, do anything, without having him in your face all day long. I went to the gym today & when I was on the treadmill, there was a tv in front of me that was turned to cnn. I walked on it for 50 min. It was all barky, the whole time. (I had my ipod on & was listening to music, but kept looking at the tv screen, like an accident).

      • wodiej

        I hear ya, I was having the oil changed in my car and the dealership had him on tv, I got up and left the room until my car was done. Sick of it. When Obama gets in there and actually has to start doing things the adoration will likely have to subside.

        • DawnellesTIREDoFpolitics

          ROF(hurling)H

          ewwwwwwwwwww

          R they SERIOUS?????

          that is just beyond gross and crass and insulting

          who the HELL buys chit like that but idol worshipers?

          Is that what the American electorate has turned in to?

          Stark raving loons! That the LEAST qualified candidate with the MOST threatening associates would not only get elected but get his own friggen plate!!!!! ewwwwwwwwwww!

      • Phillymiss

        At my workplace, people have pictures of him up all over. Yeech!

        • beebop

          Just one more reason to be thrilled to work from home ….

          • workingclass artist

            lol…well they had pictures of FDR every where and Kennedy…etc…I’m not surprised…Some folks need a HERO even if it’s a hollow one…

            • beebop

              I don’t even like hollow easter bunnies … and at least part of them are chocolate.

        • gs

          GET PAINT GUN SHOT AT PLATE & PICS

      • Ms. Shiloh

        WELL GET OVER IT….ALL YOU NAYSAYERS MAY AS WELL GET READY FOR THE VERY FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. WE ARE ONE COUNTRY AND IT IS YOUR PRESIDENT AS WELL WETHER YOU VOTED FOR HIM OR AGAINST HIM! STOP YOUR WHINING AND EMBRACE HISTORY. JUST BECAUSE IT’S CHANGING DOESN’T MEAN YOU CANT’T REJOICE AS WELL. HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE MORE “MINORITY” “I HATE THAT WORD” PEOPLE, BOTH WOMEN AND MEN THAT RUN AND WIN THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE LAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        • WildChild

          Sure, I’ll embrace the moment, but only if you embrace the moment in the not too distant future when you’re selling your BOBO plate for change at the yard sale and there aren’t any takers LOL. Oh , and I think I’ll defer my embrace of this moment until then.

        • /www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsP6XN2dIo&eurl trixta

          Just as GWB — he ain’t my president.

      • Fleetwood

        Personally all of you haters out there can still pay $4.50 at the pump, so go take the sheets off boy its a brand new day. You are just as responsible as Dubyuh for those 5K dead soldiers and millions of Iraqi people behind the Bus/Chene/Rove debacle.

        • WildChild

          hey chuckles, you’re just as responsible as dubya Too. Ol chimpy was your president so STOP YOUR WHINING AND EMBRACE HISTORY. LOL

        • /www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsP6XN2dIo&eurl trixta

          And you Obots are responsible for another nitwit neo-fascist puppet in the WH. Your King Obama hasn’t a clue. When the nuclear bombs go off don’t blame us PUMAs.

    • wodiej

      LOL, no kidding, and first thing in the morning!

      Actually I had already heard about this. It would all be fine and good if Obama were a person of character and principle but we know he is not. It’s sad really, it shows how society places such little importance on these things. But when they have reality shows out the wazoo and people flock to movies to see mindless shows like “Dude, Where’s my car?”

      How many of those people who think Obama is going to put gas in their car and pay their mortgage, are snapping up these plates? They just don’t get it. There is no free ride.

      • beebop

        You could always buy one to throw on the ground as you are drinking ouzo and shouting “opah!? ….”

    • workingclass artist

      Makes me think of Triffids…Blinding the populace with tacky eye pollution…OH BROTHER!

    • Kay-Kay

      The funniest thing of all; its probably a white man making the money from these plates.

      • KarenM

        Why is that “the funniest thing of all”?? Who the hell cares what color the person is making the plate, what does that have to do with anything? He is going to be the next President of the U.S., why doesn’t he deserve a commemorative plate? What an incredibly stupid and ignorant comment.

    • /www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsP6XN2dIo&eurl trixta

      Oh, HELL NO!

      Quick, they need to produce plates and coins of a real hero like MLK to counter this fraud!

    • truth

      Don’t buy that PLATES. They buy the plates in CHINA. The cost of the PLATE is only US$0.8 in China, they sell you as US$19.99! You make them millionaire! HAHA~!

  • Touchet

    OMG, I was watching fox too when that came on and i threw up a little in my mouth.

    • Idiocracy08

      Not me. I hurled all over the place.

  • socalannie

    Eww. I just looked at the plate. It says, “Change has come”. Revolting.

    Keep the change, barky.

  • http://www.wewillnotbesilenced2008.com OBAMA IS A FRAUD

    The WORST part of this crap…I was already watching the JONESTOWN story on MSNOVOMIT (I know, my bad) and this plate nonsense came on. It was truly an out of body experience.

  • OhmAMeasureOfResistance

    Pull!
    Boom!

    • Northwest rain

      They probably sell for 50 cents in China — order a container load and ah ha

      pull
      boom.

    • SteveS

      Are the Obama thugocrats picketing your house yet?

    • Idiocracy08

      Took me a second…but LOL!!!!

      • beebop

        That is the only thing selling …. :)

  • Northwest rain

    I’m so glad that I went cold turkey and stopped watching tv several years ago. Because I would certainly have thrown the tv OUT the window by now.

    YECK!!!!!!!

    But hey it doesn’t have his ugly wife behind him. She’s soul sickness ugly. (Sort of an Indian saying.)

    • Phillymiss

      Hmmm . . . in a few short weeks Mrs. Barky is going to live a life most of us dream of — trips in Air Force One, being treated like royalty wherever she goes, one of the most beautiful and historic houses in the world to live in, servants at her beck and call . . . I wonder if she’s proud of her country now?

    • KarenM

      You guys sure are whacked. And you’re mean too. One thing we know, she sure has whole lot more class than you do, and she is probably more attractive too.

  • http://edgeoforever.wordpress.com/ Not Your sweetie
    • HARP

      Probably called “dial a prayer” quite a bit.

      • fif

        Probably a lot of calls to HRC lately: What do I do now??? Can I have your [insert policy proposal here] now?

  • Lisa-NY

    Can you imagine if they decide to put his face on currency?
    They will probably take Alexander Hamilton off the $10 bill , because he isn’t as “important” as Obama historic 1st Black President. You watch, the politically correct will want this done..

    • wodiej

      you’re probably right, then they’ll want him on Mt Rushmore

    • bert

      They never put a living President on currency. The Reagonites tried and even they could not get Regan on anything. If they do this for Obama I will be sick.

      • beebop

        Now might be a good time to lay in an ample supply of Tums …. just sayin’

  • Benjamin

    I have a feeling many bots will be eating “crow” off that plate in the years to come.

  • andrew191

    There’s a positive side to this. Using plates like these would work wonders for people with weight problems. I certainly wouldn’t want to clean my plate at the risk of exposing that insipid mug dwelling beneath my spagetti, I’ld rather starve.

    • andrew191

      Of course if your bulemic, exposing his face will assist you in vommiting up what you just ate. It’s a win win situation.

  • Jackarooty

    I’m going to wait until the Obama coins become legal tender (and we know they will) and THEN I will buy an Obama plate.
    Oy vey.

  • http://my.wrif.com/mim/?p=916 Canadian4Hillary

    I have to change the channel when that commercial comes on, sicko! He must be in love with himself, ugh!

    Click on my name, for a link to WRIF radio in Detroit, MI, they called the Kenyan Embassy day after election, Kenya Ambassador says BO born there. WTH!

    • C.S.

      Well, that was interesting, Canada. The birthplace of the man called Obama seems to be the most well kept open secret of this election. Unfortunately, it also proves that those minding the Constitution seem to be not only asleep on the job but sleeping through all those alarms going off! What will it take to wake them up?

  • POdVet

    If they release a commemorative bed pan with his picture inside….I might consider it.

    • oowawa

      I once had a brainstorm for a commercial product: toilet bowl targets. These would be made out of vinyl, and would have a water-resistant adhesive backing. They would adhere underwater to the porcelain of your toilet bowl, or to the back wall of a urinal. Faces on “toilet bowl targets” could include people like Osama or Obama, GWB, Chris Matthews, Herr Olbermann, you get the drift. Alas, like all my brainstorms, once I conceived of this product, I lost interest.

      • jwrjr

        Commemorative toilet paper? (But that might give people constipation.)

        • oowawa

          You know, I actually considered that back in the hostage crisis days–Khomeini’s geezer on every double-ply section. But the costs of printing seemed prohibitive, and then there were the problems of ink smudging. Sure fun to think about, though.

      • Idiocracy08

        I like it, but it may scare some men to whip it out in front of Obama – picture or not.

    • /www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsP6XN2dIo&eurl trixta

      I’m waiting for the commemorative THUG coin — its worth minus $.04 cents (i.e. for every MI delegate stolen from HRC). Use it for tender and you will come up short everytime.

  • SteveS

    I think that he should use them for the china service at all State Dinners. And he can give them as Gifts of State to Merkel, or Sarkozy, or Brown et al. I’m sure that they will all be delighted to recieve and use them.

  • Katmoon

    Or perhaps offer the newly minted Obama edition coins, if they have enough plates.

    • jwrjr

      The “gold” coins would be made of Iron Pyrite.

    • http://uppitywoman08.wordpress.com Uppity Woman

      Yup there already is a coin.

      • Idiocracy08

        Dollar, and the Kennedy 1/2 dollar.

        He totally is the Paris Hilton of politics. Famous for nothing. At least we know who the Hiltons are!

        • /www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsP6XN2dIo&eurl trixta

          Hey, that’s an insult to Paris! At least she’s honest about how she earns her millions and doesn’t take herself too seriously! Hell, we know more about her than the Precious!

  • C.S.

    Just a reminder that our executive branch of government has officially become a sideshow with its own cheap merchandise but I won’t be buying any plates or Michelle designed jewelery!

    I had to avoid Bush’s face and irritating voice and fake Texas accent for almost a decade and if they really do put that mystery man with all those aliases in Our White House, I’ll have to avoid his irritating uhh-uhh-uhh voice and that same Bush smirk for another four because if we couldn’t get Pelosi to impeach Bush, we certainly aren’t going to get her to impeach Obama!

    I think we’re in for more of this ugly American treatment when Mr. Soertoro gets rolling; check out this video of the G8 meeting attended by Bush; almost makes you feel sorry for him but definitely makes you feel bad for our country. http://liveleak. titled “World Leaders Refuse to Shake Bush’s Hand” for a picture worth a thousand words. “Hope and Change” rhetoric isn’t going to change that attitude. Maybe this is why Senator Clinton as Secretary of State is suddenly being considered.

    • Idiocracy08

      I hate Bush, but I doubt his Texas accent is fake. He did grow up here. (I’m in Texas).

      • Strawberrybitch

        Uh didn’t he move to Texas when he was about 14 from the east coast, then leave for Harvard when he was 18? I’d hardly say he is a true Texan.

        • Idiocracy08

          Uh no.
          They moved here when he was a baby. Poppy had Zapata Oil here and was a Representative. Then Bush Sr became Ambassador around 70/early 70s.

          Jr couldn’t get into UT, so he went to Yale. He supposedly joined the National Guard in Texas. He came back after he graduated in the 70s. Owned the Texas Rangers. Became Governor. I think that’s enough time to take on an accent. Especially in Texas.

      • workingclass artist

        BUSH has a mild affected West Texas accent…The real thing sounds like Tommy Jones (MIB)…Folks in the Panhandle and West Texas sound nearly the same.The chief difference is the cadence of the drawl in relation to the clipped articulation that is a trait found in this area… LBJ had a Hill Country/Houstonian Twanging drawl that sounds very southern…There are a lot of dialects in the state ( it’s a big state ) And although Bush lived there off and on…He grew up swamped in it so I think it’s mostly authentic…and exagerated for effect on occasion…imho…

    • http://uppitywoman08.wordpress.com Uppity Woman

      What did Bush expect after he pretty much told everybody that they are “irrelevant”.

  • Magic Puzzle Box

    Just wait. I would expect the worst of this kitsch will come at Inauguration time. Then watch the merchandising come.

    • beebop

      I am waiting to see the clearance at Big Lots when half of it comes in misspelled and says Osama …

  • MrMike

    People can use that plate to hold the coins others toss as they sit on the curb selling matches to get enough to eat since Obama’s pals at Freddie and Fannie helped wreck the economy.

  • Katmoon

    MrMike, perfect, yes I can see it. The new group that will need the plates to hold the coins will be students, as we know they are tied to Freddie and Fannie, and the ability to maintain student loans is the next big hit coming. A beggars club, yes indeed. I already have my Oliver Twist gloves ready.

  • Crippled Burbank Widow

    I think I will just hold out till they offer the Barack Obama Three Dollar Bill. That seems more appropriate.

    If you’re that keen on seeing one, and think this kind of thing is somehow descriptive of what Obama is or how he will govern, why not just fulfill your own prophecy by joining these legions of mail-order crap-vendors who have nothing to do with Obama or anything else, and simply issue it yourself, Ups?

    • http://uppitywoman08.wordpress.com Uppity Woman

      Ok so you had a sense of humor bypass. I understand completely.

      • AnninCA

        lol*

      • Strawberrybitch

        No, Uppity, it means she ordered half a dozen already and is waiting for her disability check to order more.

  • TorchWood

    For Jeebus sake, can the man actually DO SOMETHING before being deified like this????

  • fif

    LOL–thanks Uppity! I’ll think I’ll pass.

  • ces

    In tiny little letters on the back, you can just make out:

    MADE IN KENYA.

    Happy Friday y’all.

    • Galt’s Pizza Parlor & Cat Herding Supplies

      Or is it Indonesia? Hawaii but really Canada by way of Mars?

  • Galt’s Pizza Parlor & Cat Herding Supplies

    I could not bear the agony to read to see if this was snark or an actual plate. I just ate and don’t want to vomit. Either way:

    Fitting there is a “victory” plate. The MSM, Oborgbots and criminal DNC have served up Lady Liberty’s head on a platter for this “victory.” Yep, a victory against our founding principles as a Republic. Someone needs to serve some humble pie on this plate to the “victors.”

    Ya’ll can shove your symbolic idol Plasticine-(s)elect. :shock:

  • melisa

    Was considering a whole set of the plates for Thanksgiving dinner, but I am concerned about the lead content. It does seem appropriate to serve turkey on them, though.

  • Camoderate

    Do they have the box set yet – the plate on which to eat while you watch the historic speech on race via DVD.

  • wg

    aww people are still mad that he won. bwahahahahah! get over it you stupid americans! if you dont like it move to China, where you can make these plates for 10 cents an hour! score!

  • gs

    HERE SOMETHING GOT PAINT GUN SHOTING WHILE ROLLING DOWN IN THE OFFICE CHAIR ………..

  • det

    How funny, it’s wonderful to see how others felt just like I did for eight years having to look at the squint-eyed, thin lipped, lizard face Bush. When I saw Bushes face a bit of regurgitation swelled in my throat every time, because he was so pale and disgusting looking. If McCain and dimwit Palin won — YIKES!! Go OBAMA, I’m placing my order today!

    • /www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsP6XN2dIo&eurl trixta

      While you’re at it, det, why don’t you order a brain!

      Oh I forgot . . . you Obots don’t have a brain.

      • det

        Nor do you whiteFREAK!

  • Dan Petrowski

    WHat’s that on Obama’s lapel? An american flag? I thought he refused to wear one in public. Just shows you how bogus this plate is.

  • truth

    TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH,THE PLATE ONLY NEEDS $0.80 PER PIECE IN CHINA. WE PRODUCE THEM. THEY BARGAIN 1CENT BY 1 CENT WITH US! HOW CAN THEY SELL USD19.99! WE MAKE NO MONEY, BUT THEY BECOME MILLIONAIRE!!
    SO SHIT!

  • questionable

    Hey, Did anyone notice that they had the negative backwards when they made this plate? His mole is on the wrong side.

  • Ewenico

    YOU HATERS – ‘STOP HATIN’ – GET OVER IT.

    YOU HATERS ARE SO AFRAID TO GIVE AFRO AMERICANS A CHANCE BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE THE ONES THAT SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH.

  • TAP

    Come on people. I don’t see anyone going after the person(s) profiting from Obama’s success. I do agree on one thing, we should wait to see what he’s capable of with this administration before judging. I only pray that he and his family remain safe and that with this administration a real change in America will come that benefits all America…not just African Americans, rich, poor, or what have you.
