Obama's mug is everywhere

Now on D.C. Metrocards.

The subway system in Washington, D.C., is making fare cards featuring President-elect Barack Obama's image to commemorate his inauguration as the 44th president.

SmarTrip cards with Obama's smiling face will be available in January, Metro spokesman Stephen Taubenkibel told DCist. Regular fare cards marking the Jan. 20 inauguration will be available in late December.

Im sort of nonplussed about all this love.



Frankly, if I were Metro, I'd feel a tad embarrassed.
