With entrepreneurs across the Internet cashing in on Joe Biden's health reform f-bomb, the White House is horning in on the action, as well. But whereas other "big f---ing deal" gear uses a slash to tame the f-word, President Obama's website goes a step further in making the phrase family-friendly: The T-shirt available for $25 from barackobama.com reads "Health Reform is a BFD."

"There are things that are a big deal—birthdays, anniversaries, the NCAA Championship game," the product description reads. "And then there are things that are a BFD, like delivering health insurance to 32 million Americans." (More Joe Biden stories.)
