Bull and Bears
April 20th, 2008 by Maria Evans
The bear on the left was chosen to represent Democrat Barack Obama, the bear on the right is another bear the company makes that many experts feel more closely resembles the Candidate.
Was it just a coincidence or flagrant racism that lead a company to choose the dark brown teddy bear to represent Democrat Presidential hopeful Barack Obama? Research on the company’s own website revealed that they do manfacture a lighter brown teddy bear that some experts believe more closely matches Obama’s skin color.Â
Unnamed political insiders are speculating that Obama’s  rival, Senator Hillary Clinton, may have been involved in choosing the darker brown bear.
“The Clinton smear machine will stop at nothing to destroy Obama,” according to someone close to the Obama campaign who spoke on the condition of anonymity, “We were prepared for a tough fight, but none of us imagined anything as bad as this.”
The informant pointed out that it wouldn’t be the first time the Clinton Campaign played these games, citing  the video of Obama rumored to have been “darkened” by Clinton campaign workers.
The McCain Campaign was quick to assert that the McCain teddy bear also smacked of racism, portraying the candidate, according to an anonymous source close to the campaign, as, “pretty damn white.” McCain took time out on the campaign trail to call for a more civil tone.Â
The McCain Campaign is calling “foul” at the white bear chosen to portray the candidate.
Will there be more to come? Not likely….                Â

Color has nothing to do with it, but I think the lighter bear is more descriptive because that image (subliminal, perhaps) conveys him as being an empty suit.
I’m not jokin.

Maria. You owe me. I just blew coffee all over my shirt.

Now why did you go and share that it was a joke? Leftist goonies are incapable of understanding satire and wit and it would’ve been great to see vituperation. They would fall over themselves condemning you and then claim you were at fault when it became apparent you were instead pointing out how brain-dead they are.
Now if you would just post a picture of the Vice President with horns the kookies could give you an award for recognizing a self-evident truth.

I did it for the children.
I kept getting this image of some worked up parent throwing out their kid’s teddy bear….

The real shame is that none of the bears were wearing a flag pin!!

I almost believed you at first, Maria, but then realized it’s a joke. If it was true, though, I wouldn’t be surprised given the politically correct atmosphere in which we live, now. People will fight over the most mundane and stupid of things.
