The Bush Thread

[Marx]

Yeah, don't take Oliver Stone's word.
There has been no evidence that Bush has ever had these daddy problems.

You actually understood ANTOINE's post!?!?!

Wow...

[ANTOINE X]

I think he should have been impeached after it was proven the WMD report was a lie. It's still improbable that he'll ever go to jail for it.

As for the economy and gas, I'm more akin to say that's all our fault. We knew we needed better fuel efficient vehicles and more development in alternative fuel sources. We should have been smarter in how we spend our money. I mean that from everybody. The damage is now done. So learn from it and move on. This year will prove if we have the conviction.

We knew no doubt about it. But the president Also knew it and spent 8 years doing GI.Joe in Irak instead or really trying to solve our dependence to oil. No offense but the republicains have that tendance to go to war so the peolple see them as hereos. When in reality is they are unable to solve their problem in their own country.

"Drunken Negro Face" Cookies On Sale at Greenwich Village Bakery

012309cookie.jpg [UPDATE BELOW] At at a time when any decent baker should have been selling racially harmonious black and white cookies by the truckload, one Greenwich Village bakery popular with celebrities and shows like Sex and the City has outraged neighbors by selling a "Drunken Negro Face" cookie in, um, "honor" of President Obama. [Video below.] A shocked customer tells My Fox NY that Ted Kefalinos, proprietor of Lafayette French Pastry, asked her, "Would you like some drunken negro heads to go with your coffee? They're in honor of our new president. He's following in the same path of Abraham Lincoln; he will get his."

Later, her friend stopped by the bakery and said Kefalinos corrected her about the name of the cookies—they're actually drunken "N-word" cookies. She says the backwards baker then repeated the dark suggestion that, like Lincoln, President Obama "will get what's coming to him." Go Secret Service, go!

And it gets worse when Fox's Arnold Diaz goes into the store with a camera and microphone to confront Kefalinos, who suddenly makes Joe the Plumber look like a Rhodes scholar. "I called them Drunken Negro Heads. What's the problem with that?" Kefalinos asks the newscaster with a smirk. "On Inauguration Day I thought it would be cool to change the name to Obama Heads. I just changed it for the day." We suppose Burning Cross Bananas Foster was too complicated to mass-produce.

Kefalinos denies intimating that Obama would be assassinated, and insists that the cookie is "not unflattering. I think it's a fun face... And anyone who says anything else should be ashamed of themselves." Besides, nobody got upset about the "Dead Geese Bread" he sold after the recent Hudson River plane crash. (We're NOT making that up.) Also, Kefalinos insists he can't be racist because, for one thing, "my brother-in-law, he's Cuban." Below, behold the breathtaking train wreck of racist ignorance.

UPDATE: We just spoke with Kefalinos on the phone and he remains utterly oblivious, telling us, "This whole thing was blown out of proportion." He says he's sold out of the "Drunken Negro Cakes" and doesn't plan to make anymore, despite the fact that many customers have been requesting them (he claims). When asked whether he understands that most African-Americans find the word "negro" offensive, Kefalinos explains, "It's a French word. It comes from the French."

Community Board 2 was quick to call for a boycott of Lafayette French Pastry, to which Kefalinos responds, "I'm sorry they feel that way because I was trying to do a nice thing." Not seeming to grasp in any way the degree of outrage he's sparked, he added, "I did it and that's the end of it and it's over."

 

[Addendum]

Crazy honkie

 

[November Rain]

he really shouldn't be getting any media attention for stuff like this. It's just childish free publicity for his establishment.

 

[danoyse]

That reminds me of the person who was sending out fake dollar bills of Obama with watermelon and ribs. They claimed there was no problem with it because they too liked watermelon and ribs and that it was just the evil media saying it was a racial stereotype.

 

[moraldeficiency]

Just goes to show you anything associated with sex in the city is racist, evil and must be destroyed.

 

[Raiden]

That's one very stupid and racist baker, and he's in New York City. Unfortunately, people like him will always be around, and a black president probably just make them even more racist.

 

[Kelly]

*sighs* idiot...

 

[mclay18]

I read about it in Gawker. Pretty stupid and idiotic, particularly in a large establishment like NYC.

If people have any sense, they'd boycott his business.

 

[WolfCypher]

Also, Kefalinos insists he can't be racist because, for one thing, "my brother-in-law, he's Cuban."

I'm lovin' it! I love how people ALWAYS use that as an excuse!

I'm not racist! My sister's cousin's neighbor's brother-in-law, twice removed, is black! Therefor, I cannot be racist.

Sarcasm, for those who couldn't tell.

 

[mjbull23]

Unreal.

 

[Bathead]

That's part of the problem with most racists, they don't believe they are and are being persecuted by ignorant people who can't tell the difference.

Absolutely ridiculous.

Hilarious is more like it. President Bush had a good sense of humor about the whole thing. "In case y'all were wondering, it was a size 10 and a half."

Hilarious.

That's certainly...interesting. Is that statue bronze? It looks like a permanent thing.

It was the shock of the whole incident talking.
