Right-Wing Vitriol: Does the Obama handbag have Mary Poppins powers?


It's everything I've ever wanted: a wooden canteen with Obama's logo on a rosary the American flag threw up all over.

Bagb_3But, seriously, a designer named "Timmy Woods" (where's Lassie, junior mint? He also designed the ugly Eiffel Tower bag Carrie had in the SatC movie) has designed a handbag, specifically the one pictured, and expects, hilariously, that Michelle Obama will carry it around at the convention. Or, ever. Now, surely, there is a manner in which you could fashion a tasteful bag out of the Obama logo, or at least, a cool, Bohemian looking one. This is not it. This looks like something Sailor Moon carries around with her when fighting evil by moonlight.
