Barack Obama's campaign has declined to comment about the racist
overtones of the iniquitous "Obama Waffles" that were being sold at a
conservative political forum Saturday in Washington, according to
Eurweb.com.

Mark Whitlock and Bob DeMoss, two writers from Franklin, Tenn, rented a
booth to sell their "Obama Waffles" waffle mix that came in a box
depicting the Democratic presidential candidate as a racial stereotype
on its front and wearing Arab-like headdress on its top flap, reports
the Associated Press.

The product was meant as political satire, said Mark Whitlock and Bob
DeMoss, who created the mix and sold it for $10 a box at the Values
Voter Summit sponsored by the lobbying arm of the Family Research
Council.

While Obama Waffles takes aim at Obama's politics by poking fun at his
public remarks and positions on issues, it also plays off the old image
of the pancake-mix icon Aunt Jemima, which has been widely criticized
as a demeaning stereotype.

Obama is portrayed with bulging eyes and big lips as he stares at a plate of waffles and smiles broadly.

On the back of the box, Obama is depicted in stereotypical Mexican
dress, including a sombrero, above a recipe for "Open Border Fiesta
Waffles" that says it can serve "4 or more illegal aliens." The recipe
includes a tip: "While waiting for these zesty treats to invade your
home, why not learn a foreign language?"
Values Voter Summit organizers cut off sales of Obama Waffles boxes on
Saturday, saying they had not realized the boxes displayed "offensive
material." The summit and the exhibit hall where the boxes were sold
had been open since Thursday afternoon.
