Savor the unsubtle nature of this one, o my droogies.
Originally brought to my attention by Patterico. Better video here.
The celebrity-endorsed item is actually an ordinary, every-day existing coin that has simply been covered with the cheapest – and frankly, the cheesiest – of materials and sold to the unsuspecting populace at a truly astounding markup. And getting a refund is next to impossible.
Do I really need to hammer this one into the ground, or can I assume that everybody has gotten the point?

Hush, I’m busy being a partisan political hack. 🙂
I know, thats why I didn’t mention the Reagan ones.
