Isn't it great to have a president the whole world admires & respects? Exactly, let me know when we elect one... It's Obama Fried Chicken! OFC pops up in China... but can the President also match the secret recipe of Colonel Sanders? 1st October 2011 Is Obama abandoning his bid for a second term in the White House and is giving Colonel Sanders a run for his money by opening a chain of fried chicken joints? Now that's change you can't really believe in. But in Beijing, China, a restaurant is actually calling itself OFC with a logo that looks alarmingly like the President dressed in the colonel's clothes. The presidential eatery: The Obama Fried Chicken restaurant in Beijing The catchphrase underneath, apparently says 'Were so cool, arent we?' The Obama Fried Chicken could be a response to the U.S. filing a complaint with the World Trade Organization about Chinese tariffs on American chicken exports. According to the New York Times, the tariffs affect an industry that employs about 300,000 people and range from 50 to 100 per cent, which means some Chinese importers paid as much as twice the price for American chicken. Obama obsession? A lookalike of the president was used in an actual for KFC in Hong Kong Maybe the Chinese have something of an Obama-chicken obsession. Earlier this year in Hong Kong, an Obama lookalike was employed to advertize KFC.

There are, of course, New York versions that caused quite a stir. There is one in Harlem and one in Brooklyn. Some people have complained the name plays into old racial stereotypes. Controversial: The Obama Fried Chicken joint in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn has been accused of racial stereotyping Selling point: Obama's name also made it way on to the awning of this fast food joint in Harlem, New York Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-Colonel-Sanders-run-money.html#ixzz1ZjhvEGdK
Except that's it's international, prob not much difference. Appears Dems are always good for a laugh, huh?
Well, I don't think that "made from the blood of Iraqi children!" would be a great slogan for Exxon-Mobil to adopt...
Not sure what that has to do with Obama Fried Chicken... but whatever. I'll overlook it since you have a stuffy nose.
I understand there's a stereotype about blacks eating fried chicken but it isn't really a harmful stereotype. What's the big deal?
I saw "official laughing stock" and I guessed it would be about "the one". ROFL. He certainly is a laughing stock. How embarrassing.
Have you seen the commercials that market the new dring --Obama Mama? Ingredients: Half of what you will find in a Bahamama, twice the cost. Now that's a good joke, and I'm not even trying to blame Obama -just the state of the relationship between Democrats and Republicans. That's my speak-up !
I wouldn't try to suggest that Obama is dumber than most -he is in fact extraordinary, in many respects. That is why he is the President and everybody else is hoping.
