This Week In Blackness – Obama Waffles (Satire)

20 Sep 2008 Author: Baratunde Thurston (Jack Turner)

So I’m just surrounded by the most talented folks, and they’re all bumrushing YouTube. My friend and fellow comic Elon James White (founder of The Black Comedy Experiment, of which I am a member) has started a weekly video series called “This Week In Blackness.” It’s hot.

This is a recent episode (3 mins) he did on the Obama Waffles. I urge you to subscribe to his YouTube Channel. You can see more at ThisWeekInBlackness.com

I lol'd several times. Seriously. Y'all must watch this.
Elon – this could be a minute shorter & tighter maybe.
Also, no mention of Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles?
Looking forward to next week's episode!

I really didn't find ths funny at all, but THE VIEW had a segment about this waffle box being a spoof @ some VOTER'S event co-sponsored by Dobson/Focus on the Family. Sherry read a rap accompaniment and it was even disavowed by kkk pin up girl, Elizabeth Hasselhoff. I woul embed the link if I knew how, but if you haven't seen it…

I didn't catch if this comedian made reference to the origination of the box. I'm not sure I watched to the end. To use something created by someone else and not credit them is called (all together now) plagerism.

I've watched this about a dozen times since last week, and it never stops being funny.
