Our Government Sure Is Scary At Times

Not in the frightening usage or sense of the word, but the dumb f*&^ incompetent sense instead.

As many of you may or may not know, we here in Chicago have a well know and widely listened to am station which surprisingly in this liberal city is mostly rightwing talk called WLS that I myself listen to nearly exclusively and religiously while driving and sometimes while working as well.

Some history about WLS, their call letters once stood for the "World's Longest Store" apparently. I didn't even know this fact until researching for the post as I always thought it stood for "Worlds Largest Signal" which it did eventually morph to so I wasn't completely wrong.. Lol,

At this station there is a for the most part newsman and kind of a 2nd tier fill in show host named Cisco Cotto who had a very clever and unique idea for a bumper sticker/campaign slogan related to Obama and his presidential campaign.

I wouldn't doubt that they would love to steal or incorporate if they haven't done so already since he attempted to trademark this slogan quickly and quietly and was turned down by some desk jockey at the Dept of Trademarks for some really lame reasons that are described in the article below.
But that wasn't even the strangest event associated with this attempt which you can read about below courtesy of WorldNet Daily yesterday.

Feds get 'disgusting' over 'Obamanation'

WorldNetDaily: : "No butts about it, irony can be pretty ironic.

A Chicago radio host who tried to trademark the phrase 'It's an Obamanation' in connection with the presidential campaign of Barack Obama has not only been turned down for being 'offensive,' the federal government mysteriously sent him 'disgusting' sexual photos and text as part of its rejection." read more
