Tappening Tries Hitching Ride on the Goodship Obama

obama-tappening.jpg

Maybe because using plastic bottles to promote tap water ain’t workin’ all that great, Tappening decided to accomplish what many have before it: self-promotion by way of Obama. Check out the triage of ads it produced to “congratulate” Obama on his “decision” to stop drinking bottled water.

Hoping to seem witty, the Tappening also attributed Obama’s success in winning Democrats’ favor to his anti-bottled-water stance.

That’s the first I’ve heard of it. If Obama actually did declare war against bottled water, it hasn’t stopped him from offering some to his fainting fans (scroll to 1:56).
