Earlier this month, following the Meal O'Bama food cart reveal, our own Joe Schumacher spotted a recently re-branded fried chicken place on St. Nicholas just south of 116th Street, now called Obama Fried Chicken. Is number 44 following in the footsteps of JFK and Lincoln—both of whom have had their names plastered on many a fried chicken joint? Looks like it. The Smoking Gun now points out another Obama Fried Chicken outpost in Brooklyn (previously known as Royal Fried Chicken). Has the President's name found its way onto an awning near you yet?

this is just plain stupid.
The real questions is: will Rahm Emmanuel personally come and burn those awnings down?
April Fools'?
The one at 116 & St Nick is real
Fried chicken we can believe in!
Is it because I'm white that no bank gave me a loan to open up Dinkins' Donuts?
Nice Futurama reference...
The Fried Chicken is a representation of his administration, messy and unhealthy for the people.
And before anybody jumps in, I don't believe in the Left-Right paradigm.
It goes to show the change in attitude and spirits. Did anyone like Bush enough to name a business after him? In fact, in the last few years of his term, it would have been financial suicide to do so.
Although OFC doesn't really roll off the tongue.
Yup. Obama fried chicken clearly belongs in same league as beef Wellington, napoleon, Chateaubriand, peach Melba, oysters Rockefeller, etc. All high end stuff.
Errrr, is following in the footsteps of JFK and Lincoln such a good idea?
Racial stereotypes are clearly alive and well in NYC. What next, Obama watermelon stands?
Anyway, greasy fried food has killed far more black people than the KKK could ever dream of.
Al Sharpton's Hot Wings n' Fries....opening soon!
I think Al Sharpton's spicy spiked tongue would be more appropriate.
Serving dark or white meat? White is always more expensive.
The only serve left wings.
ha.
Then again, you gotta admit dark meat has a lot more flavor and is much more tasty - that coming from a heterosexual btw...
I hate to say it, but.....
Ides said something pretty funny.
following your logic, greasy fried food has killed many many more asian people. do you have a point? no, but you are still and will always be a complete idiot.
