Here it is, folks.

The scariest, most controversial thing our nation has seen in years.

The controversy is going to kill me. Oh, how awful...

Its caused quite a stir on nightly news, and to everyone on facebook.

Fuss Over Hitler Teapot Suggests Marketing Opportunity For JC Penney








J.C. Penney didn't think its teapot looked like Hitler, but enough people did that the company took down a billboard and removed the product from its website.




It was a mild tempest about a teapot, but J.C. Penney took it seriously enough to remove a billboard featuring a tea kettle that some people thought resembled Adolf Hitler.




The ad, on Interstate 405 near Culver City, Calif., got lots of attention over the past few days as people noticed that the kettle bore an odd resemblance to the leader of the Third Reich.





The $40 kettle had black details that could conjure an image of Hitler's mustache and parted hair. With a little more imagination, the kettle spout could look like a right arm raised in a Nazi salute.





As of Wednesday, it was taken down. The Michael Graves-designed kettle was also gone from jcpenney.com.


Full article here.

I mean... thank God, right?

They took it down, thank God.

What would we do if they had left it up?

That big scary Nazi pot might've made the holocaust happen all over again...

Heh, I mean... never mind the S### hitting the fan overseas as mentioned in this thread, or the British taxes being robbed from them to pay for Bilderberg's "Kill the world!" meeting as mentioned in this thread. Never mind this old man who was shot and killed in his garage by police for no reason whatsoever, or the tornado emergency in Oklahoma.

Never mind poisoned vaccines, never mind poisoned water, never mind the protection of empty GMO foods that wither us away like raisins in the sun.

Never mind the REAL modern Hitlers killing millions by the number.

The Hitler pot was taken down off the billboard.

I am so relieved.

Aren't you?

Oh, me too... I'm so relieved, I can't express my thankfulness to those responsible for its removal...

Now I can finally sleep at night.

The last thing we need is another Hitler on the throne.

Oh, wait....

Anarchy and martial law, friend. That's why the Hitler tea pot has to watch you from the throne.

Or the white house. Same difference.

A teapot that looks like Hitler; give me a break! This whole thing is ridiculous and absurd!!!

Heh, the CNN article about this pot includes the following:

Obviously JC Penny belongs to the Tea Party.

Fun fact: Hitler was into tea-bagging.

I'm glad that the MSM took time to report this story since there is nothing going on other than;

Benghazi lies
IRS scandal
AP targeted by justice dept.
Fox news investigated by justice dept.
High unemployment
Stagnant economy
Increase of homeless in America
Increase in food stamp usage in America
High unemployment in the EU
Terror attacks in Britain and France
Troops still fighting and dying in Afghanistan

While I do agree with your post, Republicans are more likely to use what Obama is putting into place (like drones and surveillance systems) than his administration is. It is kind of like a one-two punch that goes over a lot of people's heads.

This is probably intentional subliminal advertising--just taken a bit too far until it became
apparent.

We are constantly bombarded with subliminal messages in adverts. Sometimes the artist
working for the ad company (with his master's degree in advertising and his minor in
graphic design) overdoes it a bit.

I think this is what we have here as an example.
