The comments are quite funny, yes. Many were deleted. My favorite: "My Granddad voted Republican till the day he died. Now he votes Democrat."
"If I found out that someone had donated to the Obama campaign instead of giving me a wedding or shower or (insert occasion) gift, Iâd disown that person. Not because Iâm greedy, but because thatâs someone with whom I donât believe Iâd want to associate anymore."
The hashtags have begun: #ObamaGiftRegistrySlogans Because that whole "Life of Julia" thing wasn't creepy enough.
