I usually don’t open stuff like this. However when this showed up in my inbox from someone I know who identifies as a Christian Republican, my jaw hit the floor. The racism, wasn’t even subtle and the analogy begged for more eloquence. See if you can point out the charitable christian tone:
Barocky Road Ice Cream:
In honor of the 44th President of the United States, Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream has introduced a new flavor; ” Barocky Road “.
Barocky Road is a blend of half Vanilla, half Chocolate, and surrounded by Nuts and Flakes.
The Vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and usually denied as an ingredient.
The Nuts and Flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow.
The cost is $100.00 per scoop.
When purchased it will be presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but then the Ice Cream is taken away and given to the person in line behind you.
Thus you are left with an empty Wallet, no change, holding an empty cone, with no hope of getting any Ice Cream.
Are you feeling stimulated?
Now, I am not a huge fan of most of our presidents of late, however President Obama is a huge breath of fresh air over the previous President Bush. Obama can speak well, listen well and does not appear to run the country based on religious superstitions and “good guy bad guy” western mentality. Obama’s education record alone is head and shoulders above Mr. Bush. Every President is expected to tolerate being poked fun of, especially when he says things like “stupidly” or in Bush’s case making up words and barely managing to get through a sentence without butchered grammar or nonsensical word placement. But there is a line to be drawn between constructive opposition and pure opposition for the sake of opposition.
