Scientists have named a newly discovered fossil lizard Obamadon gracilis. This beastie apparently died out along with the dinosaurs, when the big asteroid hit.
Are they trying to tell us something?

The Wiki says that a type of fish and a fungus were named after him. Not sure any of those are exactly the compliments they were likely intended to be...

Is it an invasive parasitical species imported from Kenya?
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Re: Obamadon
I think they should rename Mokele Mbembe to Mokeke Obambe. After all, it is from Kenyan.
