Inappropriate, Mel, to use the Presidential seal, period, until the president.
That was all. And as political humor, its perfectly fine.
Lord Karth: "I'm surprised he hasn't appropriated the Crucifix for his personal/political use."
The cleaning bills were considered too expensive after Bush/Cheney/Rove appropriated it for their own use. Look how well it worked for Huckabee.
Isn't it fairly obvious that the so-called Presidential seal was meant humorously? tongue-in-cheek?
Not all seals are presidential seals. Back in the Good Old Days, everybody literate enough to sign documents had a seal of some sort.
And if I ever get the chance to have a seal (presidential or otherwise), the motto will be "Quidquid circumvadet circumvenit."
