Rage Boy speaks!
Regular readers know that Islamic "Rage Boy" has been "all over the internets," as the lefties would say. Well, the mainstream media, knowing a good blog story when it sees one, tracked him down for an interview. Suffice it to say that he lives up to my every expectation:
Although not a Shiite Muslim, he says his inspiration is Iran’s late revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
“I sometimes leave my home and return days later after being in police lock-ups,” said Bhat, whose family run a handicrafts business. “My family members are very supportive. They know I am not doing anything wrong. I am doing what every Muslims [er, sic] needs to do.”
Apart from drawing ridicule from bloggers, Bhat has even inspired one American neoconservative website to push “Rage Boy” merchandise — including T-shirts, beer mugs, mouse pads.
“I don’t believe this! I have no knowledge about all this. Why do they do it?” demanded Bhat, who says he has no idea how to use a computer and the Internet.
Here's my question: How long do you think it will be before an enterprising trial lawyer signs Bhat up to sue for his fair share of the "Rage Boy" merchandising profits?

Seriously, I want a Rage Boy franchise.
Custom T-shirts with "Islamic Rage Boy says: insert your text here" would sell like hot cakes.

Seriously, how about a link to the website you tantalized us with. I'd be a sucker for Rage-Boy merchandise. Destroy them with laughter.

Thanks for the link to our Cafe Press store.
Be sure to stop by The Nose On Your Face and check out the 3 songs (and a video) that Islamic Rage Boy has recorded with us over the past year, as well as his two most recent advice columns: Ask Islamic Rage Boy.
Thanks again!

Cut him in on the deal and we have a budding free-market ally.
