IMO, using copyrighted material without the owner's permission would leave you subject to a lawsuit. I would think the suit would not be much more than an order to stop using the material though.
Even if a lawsuit or two is filed, it wouldn't necessarily be all bad. Politicians like to get any press they can, good or bad, unless it ruins their career. For GnF, what better national awareness could we ask for than to have the company name all over the news. And why is it there? Because some of us are so excited about such a great company!!!
