Seperated at birth: Barack Obama and Carbonfund.org

There is a striking similarity between the logos for Barack Obama's campaign and Carbonfund.org:

Given the probable affinity between the two organizations, I wonder if this was an intentional decision by a designer trying to piggyback off the good feelings for another brand, or if there is some unwritten rule that liberal, environmentally conscience people react positively to round logos with a sun, field and sky. Because I definitely fall into that camp, and love the logos. Perhaps this is the left wing version of eagles and crawling terror alert tickers?
