Great ideas.

Also, the Obama action figure should talk. With the teleprompter accessory turned on, Obama can repeat such time honored favorites as: Hope and Change; Yes, we can; We must act now before this crisis becomes a catastrophe; My grandmother was a typical white woman, etc.

However, without the teleprompter accessory turned on, you pull the string and all he says is Uh, You know.

(Teleprompter sold separately.)

The Obama toy part? Satire? Hmmmm….might be…or not.

This news tidbit in the East Asia news very very early this morning just begged to be sent out to the rest of the world…a riot in a toy factory…with Uighurs?

It wasn’t the Oompa Loompa’s, as they’re still on long-term contract to Wonka Multinational.

But, perhaps this should be further investigated…those Obama toys are indeed made in China…

I think it’s satire

Xinjiang’s majority Uighur population is a largely Muslim group with a culture close to other Turkic parts of central Asia.
.
Many Uighurs resent Han Chinese rule, complaining they’re marginalized economically and politically in their own land, while having to tolerate a rising influx of Han Chinese migrants.

bottem line, no infidels!!!

Is the Obama toy angle satire or real?

Uighurs, Han, Obama.

The Chinese discovered that if one mixes saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal in the correct amounts, the resulting compound is quite explosive.

Heh….those Chinese. I wonder if they are as surprised now as was the first to discover the results of the gunpowder formula?
