(WSB Radio) -- A Marietta tavern owner has stirred up a controversy. Mike Norman is selling T-shirts with cartoon chimp that looks like Curious George peeling a banana with "Obama in '08" written underneath.
Norman considers the T-shirt cute but others say it's insulting and an exploitation of racial stereotypes from generations ago.

Norman is no stranger to controversy. He's been posting his political views on signs in front of the tavern for 16 years.

A small group of protestors turned out Tuesday in front of Mulligan's Bar and Grill, which is down the road from the Big Chicken.
Rich Pellegrino, a Mableton resident and director of the Cobb-Cherokee Immigrant Alliance says a lot of people are disturbed by the T-shirts and says it's time to put an end to it.
