Beanie Babies Are Now Milking the Obama Cash Cow
Filed under: Barack Obama
The Beanie Baby company just released the 'Sweet Sasha' and 'Marvelous Malia' dolls, but they insist it has nothing to do with the newest White House residents.
A mouthpiece for the company said they chose those names because "they are beautiful names" not because of any resemblance to President Obama's daughters.
Riiiiiight!
“There's nothing on the dolls that refers to the Obama girls. It would not be fair to say they are exact replications of these girls. They are not,” the flack went on to say.
Apparently, the Beanie Baby people could potentially get themselves into some hot water if they claimed them to be exact replications.
'Sweet Sasha' and 'Marvelous Malia' retail for $9.99.
Bonus–the dolls sport 'real' hair!
Why didn't the flack just say they wanted a piece of the Obama money pie?
Anything Obama-related sells big these days!

Read about this earlier - Michelle not at all happy about it. C'mon on ~ "not" about the girls??? Yeah, sure.

I personally think its a cute idea for little girls, but Michelle's their Mom, and she does not want that kind of attention turned on them. Going to happen anyway, might as well get used to it.
What kind of name is Malia
Wow Perez, you're once again right on top of things. I mean, this was only on Yahoo's main page… YESTERDAY again.

Re: AddictingGirls – Too close to Mario.
yeah besides them looking the exact likeness and having the same name…there is no proof that these are exact replicates. thats not fair to say. these are stuffed with ..beans and the girls are stuffed with… organs.plus their names dont start with "sweet" or "marvelous." they are definately niether of those things.
wow, they really dodged that bullet with all that fancy talk. I almost believe them.

Re: PunkyBrewstein – I would have thought in this day and age that an ignorant moron like you would at least know better than to open your trap to voice such a disgusting opinion.
I'm sorry but anyone who wants to distinguish amongst human beings because of the pigment in their skin is the lowest animal on the food chain.
You have chosen an appropriate avatar to represent yourself.
She was a pig and so are you.
Those dolls look Asian!
You reported about this yesterday you douche!!! You are not limiting yourself to copy paste "news" from other sites, you are also copy pasting things from your own blog??? that's idiotic!!!
As for the dolls… yeah you are not milking the Obama's girls… right??? douches!
anyone else notice that the dolls have booobs?
How dirty is Beanie Babies? Boycott them. I hope they get sued big time!
Why not? Obama has already became a parody of himself.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I bet some people buy em just to stick pins in em!!!!
Do I see curves up top? thats creepy! Pedophiles Are the EVIL and scum of the Earth and those who profit from this are equally damned!
Historically, lots of dolls have been based on real people. Bottom line is, lighten up Michelle. These girls are adored by the Nation and dolls can be good role models for children, who are after all innocents. They don't hold their beloved doll and say, "hey, this is exploitation!" Besides, we are a capitalist nation, free to make money as we wish…I'm sure there will be lots of memorabilia that pays homage to this unique first family while making a buck.
AMERICANS ARE LYING, DECEITFUL, UNDER-HANDED, SELFISH, MONEY-GRUBBERS. OBVIOUSLY, THIS COMPANY DOES NOT WANT TO SHARE THE PROFITS WITH THE IMAGE THEY STOLE FROM. AMERICAN THIEVES. THE COUNTRY HAS NO HONOR, HONESTY OR CLASS. TOO STUPID EVEN TO KNOW WHAT A WART YOU ARE ON THE FACE OF THE WORLD.

They should milk it quick because that stuff won't be worth anything in a week.
Come on! How could they not be? They're just saying they're not related to save their own asses.
And I can't believe they gave them boobs. Gross and creepy.
those dolls have boobies :/
