When I ready the diary on the Psalm 109:8 that had a link, I decided to send off an E-mail as I do purchase stuff from them for my grandkids. I did watch Rachel last night and was really upset about this whole thing. I'm old enough to remember JFK - and find it very very upsetting to even think of losing a president that way, any president.

First Response:
We appreciate that you have brought this content to our attention and it has been removed from our site. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
Second E-mail:
Sadly, this email is incorrect. After writing a sincere note of thanks and gratitude for their prompt and pro-social actions, I had a flash of cynicism. After all, it doesn't take long to write an email to placate critics, does it?
I just went back on the CafePress website, inserted "Pray for Obama" in the search window, and the same disgusting merchandise came up. So, the question is: are the writers of the Support Team simply incorrect or is this an intentional effort to mislead those of us who are concerned at Cafe Press's for-profit use of death threats directed at the President of the United States?
4th E-mail:
would like to know what makes CafePress think its OK to NOT blind CC us all on this email?
Me again:
I’m getting all kinds of E-mails at my home E-mail... don’t have a clue how this happened with my one complaint E-mail directly to them.
Currently: At 2:30 CST on Wednesday, you can put Pray for Obama in the search and get multiple articles to purchase.
I tried to post this update to the original diary, but the comments are huge. Checked for a diary specific to this, couldn't find one.
I hope someone more literate than me can figure out what is happening with this... and did they really really discontinue the merchandise.
UPdate: Still getting E-mails at home. HOwever, one E-mail said they tried to "order" the merchandise and got at "Not available" response.
So I went and checked, and while there is a page of the stuff, the one I tried to order said, "sorry, not available".. I didn't check everything, but they probably have done something. Still, how hard is it to take that stuff off?
Don't know how to do a link. But it is cafepress.com - and under search put "Pray for Obama" and the stuff comes up.
