Walgreens is ordering the removal of the "Chia Obama" from its stores in Tampa and Chicago, saying the ceramic-plant figure of the chief executive is inappropriate for sale.
Walgreens spokesman Robert Elfinger said store managers have the ability to market products of their choice. But the top brass of the Deerfield, Illinois-based drug chain was not amused by some of its Tampa and Chicago managers’ choices to market the President Obama likeness.
"We got some complaints from people that they thought it was racist," Elfinger said in a telephone interview.....
Ok how can you NOT find this product racist?!?! WTF?!? Was there a Chia-Bush or Chia-Clinton or Reagan that I just somehow missed??!! How could the Leader of the FREE WORLD be openly mocked like this and there be no retribution, all while the CIA,FBI, NSA, and GOD knows what else is at his disposal??!
In case you HAVEN'T seen the commercial, here it is. Take a look and let us discuss....

That doesn't even look like him to me. Looks more like Clinton. But you know the new racism is "playing dumb", "Oh I didn't know that was racist, I thought we were past that. I don't even see color, we have a black president." Ummm hummm Yeah!
