Former Happy Days star Scott Baio claims he has been barraged with death threats and accused of being a racist after posting an unflattering photo of Michelle Obama on Twitter along with the caption WOW He wakes up to this every morning.
Outraged users reportedly responded with angry Tweets such as Scott Baio should be PUT DOWN and someone will PUT YOU DOWN.YOU; your WIFE and KID." Another Tweeter even went as far as to alter an image of Baios young child with the caption this is what Scott Baio wakes up [to]." That photo has since been removed.
The controversy began after Baio had been Tweeting support for Massachusetts Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown Wednesday. He then decided to post the photo of Obama, before insisting it was all intended to be good fun.
"For New followers: I POST A LOT OF JOKES WITH PICS. They are JUST that, a joke. NOT targeting anyone. Laughter IS the best medicine."

The way people post pictures of Obama and Michelle here on FR would be cause for ....????
Hey Scott, forget about free speech when it comes to obammma mammma or anything muslim
Don’t mess with FR!....
So, where’s the picture?
My husband was showing me Scott Baio’s Tweets election night. Scott said he was hoping for a Scott Brown victory, and his wife/girlfriend was hoping some hockey team would win.
Scott forgot the most important Dem Motto.
“Free Speech for me, but not for thee.”
I’m glad to hear the guy has a good head on his shoulders, at least in the matters touched on here.
Laughs.
I guess you would have to go to his Twitter page to see it?
That is FUNNY!!!!!
Any pictures of the Wokie an her keeper are jokes that “write” themselves.
Chachi needs to hire some Viking Kitties to police his page.
The best part of this whole thing? Perez Hilton actually scolded Chachi for such a classless joke. Perez Hilton. The guy who draws offensive and childish things on photos of celebrities and politicians (Sarah Palin in particular) whilst making fun of them in a very classless way.
Apparently the word hypocrite is missing from his dictionary.
Sounds like my household, LOL.
Needs the picture to be worth looking at...
Could there be an Oscar for a Life Achievement Award in Scott’s future?
Is this on the “Bob Lobla Law Blog”?
"WOW He wakes up to this every morning"
