A Catalog of Support Our Troops Merchandise

During my daily Internet rummagings, I came across some great merchandise festooned with the "Support Our Troops" slogan. I was inspired by these items because they so effectively combine two great American loves: merchandise purchasing and troop supporting. Since we here at Yes. Yes It Is. support the shit out of our troops, and also support troop-supporting actions on the part of others, I figured I'd present a few examples of this patriotic merchandise to you here accompanied with links on where to buy them. It's the least I could do.

Support Our Troops BBQ Apron:



Support Our Troops Customizable Coffee Mug:



Support Our Troops Dog Sweater:



Those were great, weren't they? If you have a little extra money, now more than ever is a good time to purchase one of these fantastic products. All proceeds will presumably go to a good cause.
But since we here at Yes. Yes It Is. love our country extra hard, we're not content to merely purchase Support Our Troops merchandise. No, we've decided to go one step further and actually sell Support Our Troops merchandise. That's why I'm proud to unveil the Yes. Yes It Is. Support Our Troops Catalog featuring items* available for purchase (for a limited time only) right here at Yes. Yes It Is.!** All proceeds go to supporting our troops.

I'm only commenting to shamelessly plug the return of my new, slightly revamped blog.

I would like to second Harry's plug of his new, slightly revamped blog and also include a link which I'm sure Harry meant to do, but forgot. Read it! Grow smarter!
