BellaSmiles, a member of the Etsy online marketplace, has come up with this creative piece of art which is described as “The coolest president meets the coolest wookie”.

Um… ok…. Meant to be cute?…or… No other art by the artist is a mesh up like this…
drukus
Inappropriate? He is the president, brace for much worse than that.
ryan case

This is what I call “Closet Racist” art. It is good to detect who among your frieds is a “Closet Racist” too.

So it’s ok for people to throw shoes at President Bush in effigy on the day he leaves office, but it’s somehow “inappropriate” or “closet racist” to picture President Obama as a Wookie… Neat. Very, very neat.
I for one am convinced that Obama is from another planet, but he’s too clean-shaven to be from Kashyyyk.
Gauldar
Is there such a thing as a “Tinfoil hat counter-racist”? I think the only racial links this picture has are there, only because you want them to be there. Can you please be more descriptive in your accusations next time, I am interested in your opinions regarding your personal perception.

Linkin,
You are so right. This is completely racist and offensive to Wookies.
Now, since it was so cool to call Bush a chimp, can we now call Obama a chimp?
Wallace
Is the last cover of the New Yorker is offensive to Washington?… come on, in both cases the bias of the artists are clear.
Ed Hands
…and so it begins….
No criticism of Obama now, deserved or not. He is, after all, the Messiah….
If you do, thou shalt be deemed racist.
Nice.

I agree with Gauldar here. The picture is hideous no matter how you slice it as far as I am concerned, but to draw racist agendas from it is really a stretch. No where, in the history of man was it common to compare a black person to a Wookie or use Wookie as a racist slur.

Ha Ha! I love it! A new “racist” slur is born! President Chewback Abama!
“Laugh it up, fuzzball” replaces “Yes We Can” as of today!

Chewback Abama is now official!

I’m so proud of myself.

It’s a clever mashup, but I wouldn’t give it any more credit (or blame) than that.
