Travis Tees is committed to serving the community of loyal Americans who oppose the domestic and foreign policies of George W. Bush and the so-called "Neo-conservatives." They have seized control of our government, putting corporate and elite interests above those of ordinary Americans. Most importantly, they lied about the reasons for the war in Iraq, and have entangled the nation in a war over oil and power that only further destabilizes the Middle East, and by energizing Islamic radicals, exacerbating conflicts will continue many generations to come. It is the patriotic duty of all Americans to question their authority to rewrite the Constitution and hold them accountable for their illegal and immoral deeds at home and abroad.

As the anti-war and anti-Bush movements continue to grow in numbers and intensity, one way to awaken the conscience of post-election America is to facilitate the creative spirit of ordinary citizens and keep the pressure of organized political opposition alive. When an ordinary citizen has a flash of inspiration in the form of a political slogan or image, the idea usually never comes to fruition. Travis Tees wants to help promote these home-made messages, and has more than one way to do it. We offer custom design services, contests, public forums, and blog hosting. The concept is to unite a community of patriotic dissenters and conscientious objectors, and promote the Revolution that is coming.

Our First Year

Travis Tees began in early 2004, after President Bush unveiled his plan for "spatial exploration" that would culminate in a manned mission to Mars. The announcement came on the birthday of one high school teacher in Los Angeles, who thought ”Send men to Mars? We should send Bush to Mars! Yeah! ’Send Bush to Mars!‘" Out of this idea, Travis Tees was born. "Send Bush to Mars" was our first product, and it sold well.

Other people around the country had the same slogan in mind, and a few even produced stickers and t-shirts with this message, but all of them with less attractive graphics that the design from Travis Tees. The phrase was also chanted at rallies, put on home-made signs and blogged. The novelty eventually faded, but Travis Tees' marketing plan concept kept evolving.

Soon, people with great ideas and talent began to use Travis Tees to realize the publication of their political messages. The second and third designs the company marketed were collaborations between the company and members of the politically conscious community.
