Going in...

I told my mother that OBAMAmania is getting out of hand, but this takes the cake.
Obama Fried Chicken!?!

I understand we have have this wonderful black president, but why must he have a chicken joint named after him. This is a picture of one of many places in Brooklyn & Manhattan. I cannot relate. I thought the Obama posters, light up belts, plates, ashtrays, car decals, and etc. were enough, but no...there has to be more. I feel like there were no presidents before Obama. Everyone is jocking him, it's annoying me.

Here's the actual article....
NYC mayor: 'Obama' not best name for chicken joint

NEW YORK (AP) — Mayor Michael Bloomberg says a New York City fried chicken restaurant named after President Obama could probably find a more appropriate name.
The mayor was asked Wednesday about the controversy surrounding the Brooklyn eatery. Community activists say the manager of Obama Fried Chicken told them he would change the name because of its racial overtones, but now says it will stay.
Mohammad Jabbar says the name was chosen as a tribute to the president. The restaurant is in Brownsville, a predominantly black neighborhood.
Activist Kevin McCall says the name is "very offensive to African Americans." Another protest is planned for Saturday.
The White House says the administration disapproves of using the president's name and likeness for commercial purposes.
