Hi guys,
While I was checking my email on Yahoo, I saw one of the most emailed photos was a box of "Obama Waffles." According to the Associated Press, Mark Whitlock and Bob DeMoss, writers from Franklin, Tennessee, created the waffle mix depicting Barack Obama on the front and then him wearing an Arab headdess on the top. The two creaters say it is meant to be political satire and were selling the mix for $10 per box at the Values Voter Summit on Saturday September 13. This just reminded me of what we were discussing on Thursday with the depiction of Aunt Jemima for syrup. Below are the two links to the two pictures...
