Apparently, Demstore has been providing campaign materials since 1985, and has worked with the presidential campaigns of Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Howard Dean and John Kerry without incident.

Hey, pal, that's what's known as "free enterprise." If you believe in it, and don't want to be called a "greedy" private business (ironically, by the campaign of the Fundraiser in Chief), you're in the wrong party . . . especially in the age of Obama.
