Happy Chia Obama (From chiaobama.com) Robert Elfinger, a spokesman for Walgreens, said in a company statement Tuesday that the Chia Obama was being pulled from stores in the Chicago and Tampa areas because it "didn't fit with our corporate image."

Conservative blogger Doug Powers has once again left me questioning the sanity of the United States. CVS stores, with the help of other outside influences no doubt, just made my Christmas shopping season a lot more difficult : In CVS stores for less than a week, the Commander in Chia has already gotten the boot. The chain Tuesday said it is no longer selling the Chia planter modeled after President Obama. Chia Pet maker Joseph Enterprises launched an ad blitz leading up to the sales of its Chia Obama last week in Chicago, San Francisco and Tampa, Fla., the first time the item was ... Read Full Story

  It's here! Or at least, it was here, until certain establishments hauled it off the shelves. Well, why NOT an Obama Chia Pet? You don't even have to change the skin tones.

The scene: A vast crowd at a political rally raises a tumult of adulation. Triumphal music rises. Graphics of President Obama's image slide across the scene as we hear the now-familiar voice say, "Change has come to America. . . . Our moment is now. . . . Yes we can!" The crowd chants. Slow pullback on the image of the White House. Announcer: "To commemorate the inauguration of our 44th president with a well-known American icon, introducing...
