Did Ben & Jerry really created "Yes Pecan!" ice cream for Barack Obama? Bush ice creams?

Just got this email... I'm fairly certain it's made up.

Thoughts?

"YES PECAN!" An Inspirational Blend! Amber Waves of Buttery Ice Cream With Roasted Non-Partisan Pecans. LOL. it's not a new flavor per say, but it is an Obama influenced name. The ice cream flavor is just butter pecan.

The best thing though is if you purchased this flavor in January proceeds went to a great organization. The Common Cause Education Fund a nonpartisan, nonprofit advocacy organization founded as a vehicle for citizens to make their voices heard in the political process. They are committed to honest, open and accountable government, as well as encouraging citizen participation in democracy. Their Education Fund conducts research, education, and outreach activities.

and my favorite GW one's? (in no particular order)

They really did make a "Yes Pecan!". Good takeoff I think. The President's picture is on the container.

The Bush flavors are not true, that's just gratuitous insulting on by someone on the net.

The charity bit was only during January.
