It’s been easily a decade since Freshjive did something to truly get collective panties in a bunch. But this new “Hope Is Fading Fast” shirt is sure to have some folks up in arms. The real question is, would you wear it?
Pre-releasing on Black Friday is the t shirt design, “Hope is Fading Fast”. This is actually the first item releasing without the Freshjive brand name on it. Read the recent post on the World’s Got Problems blog regarding how the Obama administration is maintaining continuity with its disgraced predecessor.

Lame!!! I mean I bought a pair of Freshjive wallabees back in the day but- honestly this is pretty unoriginal. First of all, Obey exploits the over saturated notion of change by creating the Obama print.. this print is simply exploiting the over saturated opposite notion (No change/ same as usual) – unoriginal and tired.
Secondly, since when has Freshjive been political insiders. What about the Obama’s health care plan he is trying to pass- or the closing of Guantanamo Bay? I’m not a die hard Obama supporter but I’m pretty tired of people being overly critical about him. His a black man, with moderate democratic politics- and considering that blacks were once slaves in this country, and considering that Bush was before him, then yes we do have change.

The obama craze swept me off my feet too, it got me into politics, watching cspan like it was nickelodeon, and reading every piece of legislation that comes through…. ironically this made me see through obama’s administration, this is a guy who has already sent 80,000 troops into afghanistan, has started a war in pakistan, reinforced the patriot act, become the head of the UN security council (which is illegal), and broken every campaign promise. all after he bailed out his friends on wall street.
I always hear the,’did you expect things to change so quickly?’
We wanted change, this is just more of the same.
what will everyone be saying in three years? Four years wasn’t enough- elect him again?

Ever heard of freedom of speech – Artistic Speech
I would definitely wear it. The hope is fading.Not because of the administration,but because of people getting too comfortable. Alot of people voted for him. And when he won,they must have felt that the job was done. NO,it`s just beginning. So when the enthusiasm stops,the hope fades. So I would wear it as a reminder to everyone that says something about it that we aer getting lazy as a society that wanted change,but isn`t doing anything about it.
That’s real …
So, I imagine you’ll be electing the right wing folks, who just got themselves thrown out, back for more in 2010?
You probably will,….
It’s unfortunate that the ‘instnt gratification’ generation can’t appreciate the shift for the better the US made in 2008.
I love it…there is basically no difference between Dem’s and Republicans nowdays…we need a third party to stop the vicious evil overspending of BOTH parties…transparency??? what happened to that change?
Freshjive is lame for doing this and I now refuse to buy anything they sell.
Like the country is supposed to dramatically change in one year. Idiots…
So what have you done this year to make a change?
Spot-on. We elected a Democrat; did anyone really expect anything more than the “business as usual”, “tax and spend” that we’ve gotten from every Democrat, without exception, over the last several political cycles?
he wasnt expected to fix all the problems in one year but he did promise to change the way things are run and instead is basically continuing the same system his predecessors did. The links in Freshjive’s blog are things that Obama had control over and chose the same old, same old
Lame. Especially considering that President Obama is starting to deliver on his promises. I don’t know what people expect.
