Obamie Babies

The public just can’t get enough of the adorable duo of Sasha and Malia Obama, which is why one company is seeking to profit over this fascination. Ty dolls have unveiled two new dolls to their collection, “Sasha” and “Milia”. Michelle Obama has voiced her displeasure, claiming that the company is blatantly disregarding the private lives of her daughters, but Ty dolls has stated that their recent additions are in no way directly referring to the Obama girls. Of course, it’s just one big coincidence that these dolls happen to share their names with the daughters of the first black president in American history. Maybe a Caucasian version of the dolls will save the company from further scrutiny.

    How can these dolls share the name of the President’s daughter and “in no way be directly referring” to them? How dumb does Ty think people are? Shame on them.
