‘Obama Fried Chicken’? If You Go to China…

Obama Fried Chicken | China | KFC

So this exists: A President Barack Obama-inspired fried chicken chain in — where else? — China.

The “OFC” sign — which we can only assume stands for “Obama Fried Chicken” — looks suspiciously like the KFC logo and depicts the president dressed as Colonel Sanders, complete with suspenders and bow tie. According to Shanghaiist, the Chinese slogan in the lower-right corner means, “We’re so cool, aren’t we?”

The Daily Mail posits that 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.

But this isn‘t the first time Obama’s likeness has been used to sell chicken: Back in February, KFC — the real one — ran a commercial in Hong Kong in which an Obama lookalike was suddenly squashed by a giant chicken sandwich in the midst of giving a speech. The ad was quickly pulled, though a KFC spokesman said “it was meant to be a spoof and no disrespect was intended.”

As the Daily Mail also points out, there have been a few examples of “Obama” fried chicken in the U.S. as well:

      Isn’t it funny that the empty-minded liberals can support Obama though he has done nothing for them. He is full of empty speeches and platitudes. Look at what he has done for those ‘occupying wall street’… he destroyed the job market.

      Yes he gave the gay rights groups DADT but besides that he has done squat and doesn’t support their fight for gay marriage. He is full of empty speeches, then he attacks the GOP for doing nothing: http://www.americanparchment.com/video/2011/sep/obama_gays_gops.html

      @why wonder… Actually, I think you’re mistaken sir. The voting record for the 1964 Civil Rights Act is as follows: Republicans in favor = 163, Democrats in favor = 199; Republicans opposed = 41, Democrats opposed = 112. This would mean more DEMOCRATS opposed the legislation than Republicans. If you’d like, I can list voting individually here by each representative’s/senator’s name and state… Put THAT in your well educated-pipe and smoke it…

      OFC

      Examples of how government generates it owns energy.

      Richard Nixon told the American people, if we can go to the moon, we can cure cancer.
      At the time, the number of people who died from cancer was under 500,000.
      After the government collected and spend 35 billion dollars over 25 years on cancer ‘research’ the death rate from cancer went up, not down.

      Would a government subsidized pharmaceutical company sell vitamins?
      The pharmaceutical companies are the largest lobbyist in Washington DC for a reason.

      Would a medical doctor educated in a traditional medical school teach holistic healing or acupuncture?
      Get into a car crash and the doctors are fabulous at putting us back together.
      I we feel bad, they give a pill made by the biggest lobbyists.

      The overwhelming activity on earth is growing things to eat.
      If we were all healthy, would we need healthcare at the expense of other healthy people?

      No money can be made if there is no war.
      If the current war machine was suddenly shut down, the result would affect the entire American economy, possibly collapsing it in a few months.

      The government is not our God, they just need to be our idol in order to control all we are.
      Once they have accomplished complete control over a large portion of the society, they’ll simply kill off the non believers.
      It’s easier to kill a few then an entire population in order to start over the way they see fit.

The problem here is that China is not playing fair in all this and the US has done nothing to level the playing field ….. the Yuan needs to appreciate in value and thus make imports from China more expensive in US $ terms ….. else there need to be compensating duties on those imports.

    A gift from the Chinese people to the President of the United States. I will have have to see how good this chicken is in China. Sounds like “change” and hope” and deep friend all in one.

      The Chinese can’t be racist ’cause they‘re not White and EVERYONE knows ’people of color‘ can’t be racist, ask your Atty; General, Mr. Holder.
