    Obama Fried Chicken?

    http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/...rants_ruf.html

    eyond the racial overtones, some critics found it distasteful that a business would try to make a profit from a historic election. "You see a lot of that in this area - slapping Obama's name on businesses to make money," said Khayeen Adams Sr., a furniture store employee in Brooklyn.

    the owner of this store is from another country and more than likely does not even know the stereotype... my question is... if it were Dick Cheney's Hillbilly Gun Store would anyone have a problem with it?

    I can see how that is offensive, if it was the Cheney store you proposed, well I would imagine at least the one guy he shot and his family would be offended

    How dumb...it's so stupid, I really don't care that it's offensive.

    My main problem with the whole thing: It's Obama Fried Chicken & Pizza...what kind of trashy joint serves fried chicken and pizza? And add to that the lesser menu items listed on the sign: seafood, burger, coffee, donuts, and gyro...sounds like one classy joint. Even Huddle House doesn't try to ruin that many different styles of food in the same building.

    I hate when people (yes, it does always seem to be Democrats) hunt for obscure racism. I don't think this was intentional.
