HAAHAHAA Too funny! Aren't we post-racist now? Let it be. . . everybody likes chicken!

[Perdogg]

He needs to serve the chicken with Polynesian sweet and sour sauce.

[LottieDah]

Looks like Democrats have no sense of humour. No Obama Fried Chicken, no Obama Chia Pets. I have a better idea. Let’s have no Obama at all and vote him out of office (if he isn’t frog marched out first).

[mgc1122]

I bet this guy is selling triple the number of fried chicken orders now ...

[henkster]

Does the restaurant have a teleprompter menu to tell you what to order?

[stop_fascism]

I also find the name Obama offensive. Perhaps we can ban the term “Obama Presidency”.

[VA_Gentleman]

I like fried chicken! I also like watermelon!

[John123]

very offensive to African Americans

I STILL don't get it... why is watermelon and fried chicken offensive to blacks? I like eating them and it certainly doesn't lower my expectations for ethnic groups...

Manager: NYC 'Obama Fried Chicken' will not change name

Activist Kevin McCall says the name is "very offensive to African Americans." Another protest is planned for Saturday.

annnnnnnd....

Not that I care, but I wonder how 'Activist Kevin McCall' feels about the Obama Chia Heads?
'His' hair grows all ... 'nappy'.

[SnakeDoctor]

I have never understood why fried chicken was considered racist. I like fried chicken — A LOT. Why would anyone be offended at the implication that they enjoy delicious food?

The Japanese have a culture with a lot of bowing. Can we have a Obama Sushi restaurant?

How about a combined Chinese/Arab restaurant named for Obama? When you order your Szechwan falafel, your kids and grandkids have to pay the bill.

[Mr. Mojo]

I’d like to order the Al Sharpton chitlins with a slice of Jesse Jackson watermelon, please.

[Tennessee Nana]

Kevin McCall says the name is “very offensive to African Americans.”

"City Councilman Charles Barron said Friday that he will organize a demonstration next week outside Obama Fried Chicken in his Brooklyn district. Organizers said they may also target Obama Fried Chicken & Pizza in Harlem.
"People from the community were calling me and saying they were outraged by this racist connection to Barack Obama and fried chicken," Barron said."

That's "ex"-Black Panther Charles Barron...

Charles Barron: "My immediate response is 'take off the ex,' because I’m still a Panther at heart. And I’m proud to be a Panther because the Black Panther Party fed children breakfast. It had a clothing drive for struggling people in our communities. It led the research drive around sickle cell anemia, a rare blood disease peculiar to black people. As far as the guns and the actions with the police, that wasn’t even a major part of our program. That was for self-defense against police brutality."

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo.

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

[Snickering Hound]

It's time to leave your Church's and run to the presidents!

[Secret Agent Man]

It is not racist.

[BunnySlippers]

Gee whiz, even fried chicken is a black icon!

[DogBarkTree]

I find many African Americans offensive. Who can I protest about that?

[mortal19440]

“People from the community were calling me and saying they were outraged by this racist connection to Barack Obama and fried chicken,” Barron said.”

Ya, just like the old people were calling Rep. Wexler about being fooled and disenfranchised during the 2000 election. Show us the phone records asshat.

Which came first?

The 'Obama Fried Chicken' or our fascist enslaver sometimes called 'The Great ObamaNation'.
