In this case

I disagree, ChiaBama is the perfect gift for those 'hard to buy for' Conservative in-laws, the ones we all love to hate.

And I would prefer to have CHiaBama in the Whitehouse instead of the real thing.

p.s.

It does bring to mind the question of what type of seed is used in this particular empty Chia Head?

One of 2 Things:

Either
1. The Chia Obama was pulled because the Chia Obama had Green nappy hair and the other Obama has black nappy hair;

or

2. The green hair was a reminder of "The Boy With Green Hair", a 1940's propaganda film produced by a bunch of closet (or maybe not) communists in Hollywood.

The picture bombed big time.

Chia Obama

This is terrible news! Now how am I supposed to complete my Chia presidents collection?

I had great hopes for my Chia Obama being a success. I planted my Chia Bush put nothing ever grew out of it and the Chia Clinton only produces cannabis no matter what you plant.

Boaz: Conservative In-Laws?????

Am I missing something here? Or, are you just being sarcastic? (Ha!)

I was hoping to buy one of these for my mother's sister and brother-in-law in Tampa. They are so far "Left" that even Code Pink thinks they are part of the Looney Left.

I forgot to ask about the Chia Teleprompter.

Is it just me or does the "bust" of Obama have some "Roman emperor" influences.

I can call Tampa and ask my cousins who live in the area if they bought an extra one.

Sorry about the Chia Bush.

As for Chia Clinton, what did you expect?

This is just way too weird for me. When I read the comments, my thoughts were along the line of BrianR's. Alien definetly!

Thanx for the heads up and I won't be looking for one in a store near me any time soon.

Chia Obama

I hafta agree with Buck, and 1. Definitely a racial thang with Walgreen`s. They are just so "sensitive"!

There is also a plastic Obama for car dashboards, saw it on Glenn Beck`s show! I posted this same little chiaobama on my blog, too! Great minds think alike, especially Capricorns, Gray Ghost!

I don't know, thoughts range from...

...being the funniest damm thing I've seen all day. I'm talking hilarious, I can't think of a more fitting use for Great Leaders noggin than a base for growing plant life Where do you get one, I mean did they pull them off the shelves or maybe they just sold out. I could put it on the back porch and let the cat take over watering and fertilizing duties.

Looks like somebody left the doors to asylum open. Great comments!

No need to trouble the relatives. I'll get one when they release the new "King" series.

Thanks for stopping by.

I am very lucky. Alot of very witty and intelligent people stop by my site.

It sure ain't because this old country engineer has any "smarts". I think its because they all keep wondering what in the world is that "idiot" from Mississippi going to say or post next.

Target practice? On our Fearless Leader's bust?

You should be ashamed for the waste of a perfectly good round.

Loco weed, stink weed, bull nettle, etc.

All are good choices and probably more appropriate than any of us want to imagine.

Thanks for stopping by.

I think that every Walgreen store in the Tampa area has pulled them from their shelves as inappropriate.

However, Walgreens in other locations might still have them. Since there are no Walgreens in my area, I will have to rely on people like yourself to check this out and report back.

I appreciate your concern; but I will call anyway this weekend and report back what I find out.

Do you think the "King" series will be out any time soon?

Cha....Cha...Cha...Chia!

I think he should have one of these in the oval office.

I am just waiting for the chia teleprompter to hit the shelves. And then we can move onto the Geithner forehead chia! Great Christmas gifts this year!
