“Sasha and Malia look like good kids, smart with a good head on their shoulders, they don’t need dolls made in their honor.”

True. These little girls can’t help who their parents are. It think they should be off limits as should all children of politicians.

It is blasphemy to fashion such images of the black goddesses. Nothing can be compared to them!

>>young private citizens

Sorry, they are public figures now.

There is no physical likeness apart from the names.

Wasn’t there a ruckus a few years ago about there being no black dolls....

Plus they’re gonna fly off the shelves.

No, I haven't missed the point - I was making a different one.

And I don't think that the kids should be exploited in any way.

My point is that these dolls are no-doubt the creation of Obama’s adoring fans and will be flattering and considerate.

No such decorum was extended to the Bush family.

“We believe it is inappropriate to use young private citizens for marketing purposes,”

But it is OK when the Left uses children, even small children, in commercials and YouTube videos for Left-Wing political purposes.

MO is just upset that somebody is making a buck, and it apparently isn't the Left.

Note to those who are trying to equate the Beanie Babies with the media's attacks on the Palin kids: Are you paying attention? (Hint - Answer; No) No one is “Attacking” the Obama daughters. Quite the contrary. These aren't bobble-head dolls. If some company had made John-John and Caroline dolls during the Kennedy Administration, I'm sure that even the Dems would have said, “Oh, how cute!”.

I agree - Apparently my sarcasm is lost here. See post 26.

Sorry Obama’s but you do not own the names. Now unless you can prove that Sasha and Malia are the only two black girls in the world with those names and hold the copyright on the names it’s really just too bad for you.

Or Palin's family, for that matter. I'll give a **** when these people start caring about outright lies and conspiracy theories that surrounded Palin's kids. Until then, I don't give a cr*p about something this insignificant. I've had to argue with liberal idiots who insist that Trig is secretly Bristol's baby, a claim they held fast to even after quoting statistics about the prevalance of Down's in older women vs teens, and even after showing pictures of a very pregnant Sarah.

They don't care when the most vicious lies possible are told about a conservative's family, it's fair game, but they get all pissed off when an adoring fan makes a complimentary doll. Cry me a friggen river.

I bet if the “profits” were going to Bill Ayers or one of the other cronies favored project then it would be acceptable.

Hillary Clinton Toilet Bowl Brush

by Steve
Tuesday, December 11, 2007

 
 

Hillary Clinton Toilet Bowl BrushIf Hillary Clinton should succeed in her bid to move back into the Whitehouse, Republicans can at least find some comfort while cleaning toilets with their "First Cleaning Lady" toilet brush.

I tried to come up some smart-ass comment tying together the effectiveness of the cleaning bristles and the whole "whitewater probe", but I can't think right now.

There's also one for George W. Brush Bush that looks more like his father. And then they're working on an Osama Bin Laden brush.

She should look at it as a form of economic stimulus.
