Is this political humor or racism?

1. It's Stupid

that's what it is - an example of how far American companies will go to get us to buy crap we don't need.

3. I don't know exactly.

I just got the feeling it could be interpreted that way. Maybe I've been on DU too long.

4. They had one for Chimp too

so where is the racism in that. When you look for things that aren't there you only cause yourself additional stress.

6. What they need is a Rush Limbaugh Chia.

In a specific pose with the Chia growing from a specific part of his anatomy. That would be funny and I might buy one.

9. No

It fails the exceptionalism test. If they only made a Chia Obama, or only Chia black guys then maybe you might have a point. But in the past they've made Chia Clintons, Chia Britneys, Chia Einsteins... Because you know, every public persona is funnier with weeds growing out of their head.

11. It's cashing in.

I don't think it's racist. But like all Chia stuff, it's tacky.

12. Tacky seems to be the consensus

So who would you give a gift like this?

13. never.

Now, I am really surprised the racist babbling sister primitive didn't come to this bonfire.

In case one's forgotten, last Christmas, the racist babbling sister primitive's doting husband bought her two musical 0bama jack-in-the-boxes, and the racist babbling sister primitive thought they were the cutest things.

The toys were obviously designed by a member of the Ku Klux Klan.

But the racist babbling sister primitive thought they were just so cute.

Chiabama isn't racist, it's sacrilegious. The want the messiah to look like the black dude on Mod Squad, except with green hair. The DUmp, and all disciples of the jug-eared muslim, should be outraged. This could be disastrous for the folks at Chia Industries. The DUmp represents their customer base.
