1. $3.50 for a cookie? 2. “My brother-in-law is Cuban. So I like everybody. As long as they buy.” 3. “It’s an expression of freedom.” How stupid can you get? ---

This guy ought to form a partnership with the designer who was selling [WHO KILLED OBAMA?](http://racked.com/archives/2009/01/15/discontinued_apollo_braun_1.php) shirts. They could make a fortune while keeping each other happy. Or will the former end up out of business like the latter? ---

Ignoring the stupid “Sambo face” decorations, those cookies do look as though they would be kind of scrumptious. I wonder if I can get hold of this Kefalinos guy’s recipes when he goes out of business? I think I’ll make a plain version of them (all the chocolate, no “Sambo face”) and call them “Racist Turds”. ---

Too funny. In a sad sad way. “I am not a racist, my BIL is Cuban” is just gold. Anyways, I am fine with clueless racism, what bothers me is the Lincoln / Obama-will-get-his part. Really? how can he claim cluelessness after that? ---

Those are cookies? This moron not only has to answer for his racist remarks, but for his besmirching of the fine reputation of cookies everywhere. I’m amazed he didn’t incorporate Oreos in there somewhere… (is it me or do those “cookies” look like black Mr Potato Heads with red jello eyes?) what ARE those eyes made of? Ew. ---

What the hell is with the “SHAME, SHAME SHAME” graphic and voice-over at the beginning of the video? Also, why are they _drunken_ negro head cookies? Is Obama known for the occasional tipple? Also, that guy’s a douche. ---

I’m offended that this guy apparently is too stupid to get his racial stereotypes straight. “Negros” are supposed to be high on crack, not drunk. The Indians are supposed to be drunk! Artistic license, I guess. ---

They are ugly ass cookies, for sure. That offends me almost as much as the racism. (I think I may have been reading too much cakewrecks.)
