Default Everything is a marketing opportunity

Full disclosure- I'm not 100 percent sure this is real, because COME ON, PEOPLE!

(I can say "people" because according to the Supreme Court, corporations are people)

Or a marketing failure.

What's next? A spaghetti o guarding the eternal flame, wearing a Lincoln stovepipe, next President's Day?

At least President's Day is not commemorating an attack on the nation, with numerous casualties.

Of course, if they put the spaghetti o in a theater, next to Mrs. Spaghetti O, and a little John Wilkes Booth spaghetti o behind him...

I look forward to the 9/11 tweet, complete with a spaghetti o riding atop an airliner heading for the Towers. Oh wait, no I don't.

They should hire SpaghettiOs to run the ObamaCare public relations. It would be an improvement.

Sorry about that- I tried getting a link to the image so I could paste directly, and gave up and tried the twitter page. Glad you were able to find it.
