LMFAO Chia Obama & Romney? Seriously?

[Dana]

Oh and this is facepalmable...

Walgreens is ordering the removal of the “Chia Obama” from its stores in Tampa and Chicago, saying the ceramic-plant figure of the chief executive is inappropriate for sale.

Spokesman Robert Elfinger said store managers have the ability to market products of their choice. But the top brass of the Deerfield, Illinois-based drug chain was not amused by some of its Tampa and Chicago managers’ choices to market the President Obama likeness.

“We got some complaints from people that they thought it was racist,” Elfinger said in a telephone interview.

We can’t wait to see the chain’s Halloween mask lineup.

I'll facepalm with you. I wish all the pathetic people in this world who walk around looking for things to be offended by would just crawl into a hole and stay there.. I hate that this world has lost its sense of humor.

We have a display of these two at work. I used great restraint by not writing "TheTwit" next to Mitts name on the display. But I thought about it

Every Christmas season we get these in the store. Obama, Bush, Washington, Lincoln. Plus their assorted animals, characters & herb gardens.

I think its hilarious
the product is making them look infamous
defacing them is humorous

There is not a racist thing about it. People are stupid.

Racist, you just don't like white people :tooth

I'll give MoonOwl that "The Twit" is not racist.
But I feel sad for our country right now.

Exactly... I mean how the fuck is it racist? Both presidents are represented... Oh NO the plant makes Obama look like he has a fro *rolls eyes*

 

[MoonOwl]

You should see Lincoln & Washington lol SpongeBob is funny too.

 

[darkcgi]

even if it did make him look like he had a fro it wouldn't be racist
I just heard on the radio that some judge is serving obama and some others pending his proof of citizenship (birth certificate and SSN)

I'm lost, how is this in anyway racist?
