Shopper Says Doll Spreads Islamic Message (Creepy)
The Chronicle ^ | Dec. 13, 2008 | Eric Schwartz

Posted on 12/13/2008 6:06:09 AM PST by AmericanMade1776

Dressed in yellow pajamas and a soft felt cap, the Fisher Price “Little Mommy Cuddle ‘n Coo” doll is not unlike many other toys on sale this holiday season.

That is, until it talks.

Centralia resident Linda Stewart was shopping for Christmas presents for her 7-year-old granddaughter when she spotted the dolls, on sale at Kmart in Chehalis for $5 apiece, she said. The baby elicits soft cooing and gibberish common in such toys, but one phrase “freaked out” Linda and her husband.

The doll, which responds to movement, says “Islam is the light,” the couple claim.

“It’s pretty clear, isn’t it,” Linda said Thursday while demonstrating the doll’s sounds for The Chronicle. “They had a whole bin. ... It was absolutely unbelievable.”

The power of suggestion has a lot to do with it? Yeah right. I would demand my money back.

If a doll had even the slightest reference to Jesus they would pull the doll and apologize.

Yes, it seems from their press release that they do surreptitiously support the message.

I noticed the woman on youtube said the doll sold for $20, but the article said it was on sale for $5.

Did they drop the price after word leaked out and it became a clearance item, or did they drop the price to entice more people to unknowingly buy the pro-Islamic doll?

Glenn Beck had this on a show a week or two back. Creepy ain’t the half of it!

There is an easy way to see if it is an Islamic doll. Does it explode?

Since I don't watch TV that much, I had some how missed this one. And I especially have not watched the news since the election.

What is FisherPrice saying this doll, is actually supposed to be saying? (I have purchased this doll; but did so a few months ago. . .and do not recall any such message).

From article:
If consumers have any questions or concerns regarding any Mattel or Fisher-Price toys, they are asked to contact the consumer relations center at 1-800-524-TOYS.

Well, this can’t be true. Real Islamic baby dolls like the ones shown would’ve been burned to death long before now for being unaccompanied by an older Islamic male doll.

Also from article:
Mattel-owned Fisher Price, which manufactures the doll, released a statement in October in response to similar concerns voiced by shoppers who have heard the same message. A sticker on the bottom of the toy’s packaging says it is made in China.

After listening 5x and watching the video, IMNHO, it may not be exact but close enough to give one pause. Can this finally be America’s “muhammed cartoon moment”?
Let’s hope so.

All to say, no ‘Official explanation’. . .more than ‘strange’ here.
