Amazon accidentally calls Obama a terrorist (oops)

Oooops. Amazon.com look like they'll have a little explaining to do - namely, explaining why when you searched for the phrase "terrorist costume", the only result returned was a mask of Barack Obama...

That’s what happens when you pal around with terrorists.

Amazon have now managed to remove the mask from those searches - unfortunately, not before the internet noticed, went crazy and swore never to shop at their horrible racist site ever again. Of course, it’s probably not poor little Amazon’s fault, beyond the fact that they let their users ad helpful tags to the products, which then help other people search for them. Some naughty people have clearly decided to tag the Obama mask with ‘terrorist’ (even though that was last week’s talking point - don’t they know that this week he’s a SOCIALIST who’ll make ALL YOUR CHILDREN GAY?)

LMAO! That’s hillarious! But honestly, who pays $49.95 to wear a cheap piece of plastic over their faces for one night? Sure, freedom-hating socialists are scary, but is it really worth $50? I’ve purchased full costume sets for less.

They fixed it. It now returns a McCain mask. The first could be an aberration. The second is clearly planned.

This just begs for someone to tag that mask with "Gay Socialist."

They raise Cain over this, yet Palin hanging from a noose in West Hollyweird rates nary a whisper.

Someone playing copycat thinking they are funny. Seriously I heard a lot of Republican jokes when I was a Demonrat turns out they are all rip offs of jokes that Republicans tell about Demonrats.

Check out this "Zombama" mask at Amazon.
