Barry and the Obamas Perform at West Point

Worldwide sensation and heart throb Barack Obama

Worldwide sensation and heart throb Barack Obama

Worldwide sensation Barack Obama brought his act to West Point and performed in front of a packed crowd at Eisenhower Hall.  Security was tight as Obama and his backup band The Obamas were led to the stage by a phalanx of state troopers.

Obama thanked the crowd  for coming and launched into his no 1. hit, the patriotic ballad “We Didn’t Ask for This.”

“We did not ask for this fight/They struck our military and economic nerve centers/They took the lives of innocent men, women and children without regard to their faith or race or station/If not for the courage of the fearless crew America would be lost/America would be lost”

With the crowd sufficiently worked up he launched into his nonsensical rap ditty “It’s My Predecessor’s Fault.”

“In early 2003 a decision was made to wage a second war in Iraq/ For the next six years the Iraq War drew the dominant share of our resources/that decision caused substantial rifts between America and the rest of the world”

The song ended with a 15 minute call-and-response jam of “Bush did it/Bush did it/Bush did it.”

He then closed the concert with his trademark song, “Read My Lips:  No New Deficits.”

“All told, by the time I took office the cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan approached a trillion dollars/I will work closely with Congress to address these costs as we work to bring down our deficit “

Obama then left the stage as his backup band threw Obama T-shirts into the crowd.  After a ten minute wait Obama reappeared for the encore and sang a new number called “Multilateralism.”

“No one nation can meet the challenges of an interconnected world acting alone/I have spent this past year renewing our alliances and forging new partnerships/And we have forged a new beginning between America and the Muslim World/One that recognizes our mutual interests in breaking the cycle of conflict”

With that the concert was over.  Despite his warm reception there were many in the crowd who thought his performance was lukewarm at best.

“I saw Louie Anderson and Frankie Avalon here last week and they were much better” said one spectator.

Another expressed disappointment because he was led to understand that Kenny Rogers would be performing.

“I don’t know.  Maybe I just got the dates mixed up.  Still, he could at least have sung ‘You Picked a Fine Time to Leave Me Lucille’.”

Barry and the Obamas next performace is scheduled to take place in Copenhagen.

Presidential Gate Crashers Prompt Security Review

white houseWith President Obama’s State Dinner crashed by Tareq and Michaele Salahi attention has been drawn to security procedures at the White House.

While the Secret Service insists that at no time was President Obama in any danger they are in the process of overhauling basic security procedures to make sure that an incident like this does not happen again.

The first thing that  the Secret Service plans to do is take down the sign at the White House that says “This Way in for Gate Crashers.  Seriously.  Just Wear a Tux No One Will Question You.”

“We now realize that maybe that sign wasn’t a good  idea.  None of us are professional security you know.  Many of us are just waiting to get our own reality TV shows” said a Secret Service agent.  “I used to work at Denny’s until I answered an ad in Craigslist for security at the White House.  My Supervisor used to be in the Rolling Stones in the early ’70s.  I don’t remember which one he was though.  Not Brian Jones.  He’s dead I think.”

Another change will be metal detectors at the White House.

“We actually don’t have any.  Our budget is small and we haven’t received any stimulus  money.  So in place of metal detectors we put up some bronze detectors.  All we got were some Mycenaeans in togas who told us their Gods were vengeful.  We told them they haven’t seen vengeful until they’ve worked for Michelle Obama.”

Also to be eliminated is the Top Secret underground tunnel that leads from the White House to the nearest Burger King.

“That was put in place during the Clinton Administration.  We have no need for it anymore.  It’s expensive to maintain and we keep finding Palestinians in the tunnel.  When we ask them why they tell us ‘because it’s a tunnel and we though this was Jerusalem.’ ”

A new system of color-coordinated badges will also be implemented.  Those with blue badges will be deemed to be friends of the President and given access to the entire White House.  Those with red badges will be deemed enemies of the President and not allowed in the White House.

“The red badges will be given to Fox News reporters and Screech from ‘Saved by the Bell.’  The President just finds him annoying.”

But perhaps the biggest change will be the status of the Vice President.

“Apparently the Constitution makes him first in line of succession so he keeps showing up at the White House expecting to do something important.  He’s annoying.  He keeps tripping over the furniture and calling the President ‘Mr. Roosevelt.’  From now on he will be confined to the basement.  We will give him some cookies and let him pet the President’s dog.  That should satisfy him.”

The changes will take effect in time for the next state dinner for Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon.

Tiger Woods Accident Highlights the Dark Underbelly of Golf

Tiger Woods, high priest of the dark side of golf

Tiger Woods, high priest of the dark side of golf

When Tiger Woods crashed his car into a tree on his neighbor’s property many fans were shocked.  However, to golf insiders this is only the latest example of their sport’s dark side.

“Golf has a reputation as an All-American sport that has avoided many of the scandals that have plagued other sports” says  an insider at the PGA.  “Yet what most people do not know is that the majority of golfers are in fact Satanists.”

Indeed from its very beginnings golf has been plagued by not only Satanists but drug addiction and sexual misconduct.  There are many theories as to why this is but experts point to the fact that Golf was invented by the Scottish.

“Invented in Scotland.  ‘Nuff said” explains the PGA insider.  “How can it not be a cesspool of immorality?  If only Golf was invented by a purer race like the Albanians, the Estonians or someone from Oregon.”

There are many examples of Golf’s dark history that have heretofore been kept from the public.  Ben Hogan used to sacrifice chickens before tournaments and smear their blood on his genitals.

“He believed that chicken blood made him invincible.”

Arnold Palmer was a cannibal who used to trap and consume those golfers he felt threatened his supremacy.

“Palmer must have killed at least two dozen golfers before he tried to eat Jack Nicklaus but Nicklaus was too salty.  He ended up spitting out that chubby boy.”

Payne Stewart was known to travel with a collection of groupies that would rival Menudo.

“His orgies were notorious.  He used to say that the chicks dug his knickers, socks and  tam o-shanter on his  head.  I once heard him yell ‘fire in the hole’ so I rushed into his hotel room thinking he was in trouble. I found him with eight groupies performing a sex act I thought gravity made impossible.”

It is rumored that Payne’s untimely death was the result of Tiger Wood’s jealousy at his sexual exploits.

After Payne died Woods took over as the PGAs alpha sexual freak.

“That car crash was going to happen.  It’s only a matter of time before his wife found out about the 622 girls between the ages of 18 and 21 he keeps on his payroll. They’re officially secretaries but why does he insist they all wear french maid outfits and call him ‘Big Daddy?’  And I don’t even want to get into his use of HGH.  Tiger was only 4 feet 11 before he started injecting himself with that stuff.

In any event the coming Golf scandal could seriously tarnish the game’s image.

“This is so bad it’s going to make Golf look as clean as competitive eating or baseball.”

Oprah Ends Talk Show to Concentrate on Ruling the Universe

The Universe will soon know Oprah’s wrathOprah Winfrey has announced that in 2011 she will step down from her popular talk show to concentrate on “using my Divine powers to rule the universe and make it bend to my will.”

In a press conference attended by various angels and archangels Oprah said it was time for a change.

“I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now.  My talk show, while enjoyable, pales next to the fact that as The Divine Being, I have more important things to take care of.”

Miss Winfrey then detailed her history of Divinity.

“My fans kept telling me I was Divine.  I demurred because there is only one Divine, and that’s the Divine Miss M, Bette Midler herself.   But one day I was having a fight with that bitch Phil Donahue.  I kept telling him there can only be one talk show in Chicago.  I was thinking really bad things about the man and suddenly he started to choke.  He kept saying ‘stop it……I can’t breathe.’  It was at that  moment I realized that I was omnipotent.  I stretched out my hand and  said ‘Bow to my will white man!’ He was lifted up to the ceiling.  I then turned him into a jack-in-the-box and sent him into the cornfield.  Since that moment I have honed my powers.”

Miss Winfrey was asked about the changes she intends to make in the Universe.

“There are many things I do not like and will do away with.  Other talk shows.  Free will.  Lake Michigan.  February.  Cheese-Its.  The letter “T”.  Worms. That Stedman fellow.  The guy from the cable company who said he’d be at my house at 11:00 but showed up at 12:30. The Andromeda Galaxy.  Reruns of  CSI: Miami.  Photosynthesis.  Exoskeletons.  The 13th Century.  Math.  These will all disappear or suffer my wrath.  What’s the  point in being omnipotent if people don’t fear you?”

The first sign of the new order was the mysterious deaths of all talk show hosts in America.  Jay Leno’s head was found attached to Disneyland’s gates and his limbs strewn across the four corners of the globe. Jimmy Kimmel was mixed with copper and tin, baked to 1000 degrees and turned into bronze.  Conan O’Brien’s pubic hair was made redder.  He later killed himself. Craig Ferguson became an olive plant.  Alone of all talk show hosts Jimmy Fallon was untouched.

“He’s no threat to me.  I have plans for  him” said Oprah.

The Divine Oprah then ended her press conference by giving new cars to all reporters.

Americans Gather to Celebrate Racist, Meat Eating Eurocentric Holiday

Racist Americans eat slaughtered animalsWith Thanksgiving yet again upon us millions of  Americans with carbon footprints that are too large will get into fuel-consuming cars and planes to eat slaughtered animals.

“This so-called Holiday is not a holiday for native Americans” said Joseph Wheeler, author of the book “Thanksgiving is Bad and I’m Smarter Than You.”

“It is a perverse holiday that celebrates the destruction of an indigenous small carbon footprint, vegetarian society.  Oh sure sometimes they would burn down entire sections of virgin rainforest but not being Europeans their actions must have had pure motives.”

Wheeler is not alone in his criticism of Thanksgiving.  From his home in Tennessee Al Gore released a statement that said “We are experiencing a crisis in the world.  Sea levels are rising.  Species are on the verge of extinction.  My new TV channel is doing badly in the ratings.  Americans continue to ignore all this to travel hundreds of miles to eat turkeys.”

The Turkey Liberation Front, Citizens for Free Range Turkeys, The Turkey Republican Army, Vegetarians for Turkey Rights and Barney Frank have all come out favoring the abolition of Thanksgiving and the replacement of it with a more suitable, modern holiday.

Among the suggestions to replace Thanksgiving are moving Kwanzaa up a month and celebrating it in November.

“It’s tough enough getting Americans to notice Kwanzaa because it falls around the time Americans celebrate those Jewish holidays of Christmas and Hanukkah.  It would make more sense to ban Thanksgiving and move Kwanzaa to a time where it won’t have to compete with those Eurocentric holidays” said Wheeler.

Another suggestion is outlawing Thanksgiving, Hanukkah and Christmas and replacing them with one holiday that celebrates native American culture while adding a penance ceremony. The new proposed holiday called “Repent Eat Vegetarian Low Carbon Footprint Native American Celebration Day” would start out with a recitation of historical grievances against European culture.  At the end of the recitation those in attendance would take off their shoes and burn them to symbolize a commitment to reducing carbon emissions.  A vegetarian meal would then be served on paper plates.   Americans would also be banned from traveling more than a quarter mile to celebrate the proposed holiday thereby reducing greenhouse emissions.  There is significant support for the new holiday in Congress and a bill is expected to be introduced in January formalizing the new tradition.

In a related note at the White House today President Obama, in a ceremony that dates back to President Truman, pardoned the White House turkey and wished it a “free, happy, long life without interference by Humankind.” 

The pardoned turkey was then run over by a car as it tried to cross Pennsylvania Avenue.

“You see, this is why we have to ban the internal combustion engine” a distraught Obama told reporters.

Paul McCartney Apologizes for Early ’70s Mullet

Sir Paul McCartney has apologized for his early ’70s mulletIn a stunning admission of past faults, Paul McCartney has apologized to fans, friends and music lovers everywhere for the mullet he wore after the Beatles breakup.

“What is there to say.  The Beatles had just broken up.  I was hurting and decided to cut off the symbol of that band – the hair.  But I had just started Wings and wanted to save on costs so I had them cut only the bangs.  For this I am truly, truly sorry.  I just took a look at some photos of myself from that time period and I feel deep shame for my actions.  While this is no excuse I hope fans will understand.  Also, I was smoking a ton of pot back then” said Sir Paul.

The Center for Mullet Studies lauds Sir Paul’s brave decision to acknowledge his mullet past.

“We have found a direct correlation between mullets and evil” said a spokesman for the Center.  “The more mullets being worn the more evil in the world.  Who knows.  The Vietnam war may have ended sooner if not for McCartney’s mullet.  Watergate may never have happened except for McCartney’s mullet.  The killing fields of Cambodia may never have happened except for McCartney’s  mullet.  Abe Vigoda leaving Barney Miller may never have happened except for McCartney’s mullet.  Cause and effect.  Jung called it synchronicity.”

The natural destructiveness of the mullet, combined with marijuana intake can lead to disastrous consequences.  Mathematicians have recently postulated a theorem called “Mullet (marijuana) cosine fallacy” which states that the presence of one is not in itself automatically harmful but when combined the effects can be Earth-shattering.

“An iceberg has been unfairly blamed  but it’s safe to say that someone on the Titanic was a mullet-wearing pot smoker.”

People are advised that if they see anyone sporting a mullet to report them to local authorities.

“Just look at all the evil in the world that could be eliminated if we get rid of mullets.  Rape, murder, famine, pestilence.  The View, Ward Churchill, Oregon.  Global warming, cancer, the Philadelphia Phillies bullpen.  The list is endless.  And mullets are responsible.”

Sir Paul McCartney has announced plans for a mullet apology tour to promote his single, “Mullett Through Me” which is due to be released in February.

Rise of Extremism in Turkeys Worries Department of Homeland Security

Extremist turkeys threaten the American way of lifeThe Department of Homeland Security has upgraded its threat assessment level, citing an alarming rise in extremism among turkeys.  “Frankly we are very worried that an incident may happen” said Janet Napolitano, Department Secretary.

With the Thanksgiving Holiday approaching, Department officials are worried about increasing reports of wild turkeys congregating on street corners.

“Many of them just have an evil look about them.  Some even have been seen carrying around copies of the Koran.”

The turkeys have apparently become radicalized.  Exactly how or when this started happening no one has been able to determine.  But one thing is clear:  Turkeys now want to kill us.

“This is our greatest fear.  Formerly peaceful, productive turkeys who cared about nothing except their next meal now view themselves as being at war with our way of life.”

Perhaps this is best exemplified by the recent spate of attacks in New Jersey.  James R. was walking home from work when he encountered a group of radicalized turkeys.

“I saw maybe eight or nine together talking and looking at me.  At first I thought they might be Irish so I was a little worried.  But as I got closer I saw they were turkeys.  I have always liked turkeys.  Some of my best friends eat turkeys.  My supervisor is a turkey.  So I figured they’d just let me pass.”

But it was not to be.  James quickly found himself surrounded by angry turkeys.  They forcibly held him down and beat him unconscious with their feathers.  James awoke with a note pinned to his jacket that read “This is in retaliation for chopping my brother’s head off, gutting him and shoving dressing inside him.  Turkey Akbar!  Oh, and your cranberry sauce sucks.”

A group calling itself the “Turkey Liberation Front” has claimed responsibility for the attack.

“We will continue our war of turkey liberation against the infidel meat-eating Americans.  No one will be safe.  When you sit down to Thanksgiving dinner remember this – what you are about to eat may be a suicide turkey bomber.”

The Turkey Liberation Front also promised to capture John Madden and try him for crimes against turkeys.

“Every year Madden, in an unspeakable atrocity, chooses one of our turkey brothers and glues extra legs onto him.  He does this for sport.  The war criminal Madden will pay for this dearly!”

The Department of Homeland Security, in conjunction with the Obama Administration and NBC, are advising Americans to forgo traditional thanksgiving meals in favor of green, vegetarian fare.

“Our latest intelligence shows that vegetables are still our friends.  Be safe. Eat peas” said Napolitano.

Environmentally Conscious Vikings Limit Pillaging

780 A.D. (or is that C.E.?)

The Vikings are worried about climate changeFrom their Norse homeland came word that the Vikings, worried about the Earth’s declining resources and the scourge of climate change have decided that in the future pillaging will be strictly limited.

“I had just burned an entire village to the ground” says the Viking Ivar the Boneless. “And don’t get me wrong.  I enjoy my work.  But I kept hearing the words of the prophet Al Gorethorson ringing in my ears.  He tells us that the Earth’s climate is changing. Our way of life is in danger.  And who am I to question a prophet.”

Ivar the Boneless is not alone.  Many Vikings are abandoning or at least modifying their traditional ways. Ragnor Lodbruk had just finished destroying a village when the prophet Al Gorethorson paid him a visit in a dream.

“He showed me some scrolls with drawings on them.  He called it a multimedia presentation.  He said that the drawings proved that my pillaging was causing sea levels to rise and if I did not stop my hometown would be under water.”

Lodbruk immediately awoke, ordered his men to repair the town and went to the nearest church to buy what he calls a “carbon credit.”

“The prophet explained it to me in the dream.  Buying this credit would grant me an indulgence and free me from my environmental sins and any temporal punishment.”

Among other changes in Viking lifestyle is a change in diet.  Many Vikings are abandoning meat and adopting a strict vegetarian diet.

It’s not the same really, sitting down to a meal of vegetables and green things but it was explained to me that this new diet would lower my cholesterol level and my chance of developing certain cancers.  And I’d be less warlike as a result which I’ve been told is a good thing” says Ingvar the Far-Traveled. “It seems to be working.  I don’t feel like pillaging anymore.  All I want to do is talk about my feelings and have a good cry.  I cry a lot now.  I cry about our culture’s wastefulness. I cry about rising sea levels. I cry about my treatment of native Norsepeople.  I cry about the lack of opportunity for women to advance in our male-dominated war-like Viking culture.”

Ingvar has set up a shrine to the prophet Al Gorethorson in his home.

Still, some Vikings remain unconvinced about the truth of climate change and have paid for their apostasy.  Many of them have been shunned by elite Viking society. Their numbers however, are dwindling in the face of Al Gorethorson’s scientific data.

“I’ve taken his words to heart and am trying to reduce my carbon footprint.  I have ordered all my warriors to do the same.  It may destroy our economy and way of life but what does that mean in the face of environmental catastrophe” says Ivar the Boneless.

White House Hires RoboCop as Communications Director

Don’t ask impolite questions about Obama, punk!Fresh off the departure of Anita Dunn the White House has announced that RoboCop will be their new Communications Director.

“We needed someone who had experience dealing with the public as well as someone with a strong message.  RoboCop fulfills both these needs” said Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.

RoboCop was then introduced.  Stepping to the podium RoboCop thanked President Obama for showing faith in him.

“I have four directives.  Serve the public interest.  Protect the innocent.  Uphold the law.  Defend President Obama at all costs.”

There were murmurs from the press when the four directives were announced.  Many wondered if the first and fourth directives were mutually incompatible.  Major Garrett, Fox News White House correspondent asked RoboCop about this.

“You say that one of your directives is to serve the public interest.  Yet you also say that another directive of yours is to defend President Obama.  Don’t you think these two are in conflict with each other?  The public interest will not always be served by defending President Obama, or any President for that matter at, and I quote you, ‘all costs.’ “

The room became tense as RoboCop pulled his gun from his holster and aimed it at Garrett.

“Your move punk” said RoboCop.  Garrett tried to make a run for it but was shot in the groin.  “Thank you for your cooperation” RoboCop announced after shooting him.

Jake Tapper, ABC’s White House Correspondent was next.  He nervously asked RoboCop exactly what defending the President at all costs means.

“I am authorized to use physical force if necessary to defend the President” answered RoboCop.  He then told Tapper that his programming had identified him as a risk to Obama.  “Come quietly or there will be trouble”  he said before beating Tapper unconscious.

RoboCop was asked if he had a message for any kids who were watching.

“Stay out of trouble.  Pledge to be a servant to the President.”

The press conference broke up as RoboCop left the podium.  “Excuse me.  I have to go.  Somewhere there is disrespect to the President being committed” he said.

Press Secretary Gibbs, grinning from ear to ear said “I love this guy.  I wish I had a dozen of him!”

German Sheperd Invades Poland

Maxie the German Sheperd gives in to his brutal lust for world dominationMaxie a four-year old German Shepard in the  prime of his dog life invaded Poland, wreaking havoc, killing wildlife, destroying farmland and, in violation of all Geneva Convention protocols,  impregnating the local dog population.

Maxie’s invasion of Poland began shortly before 4:40 AM when he entered the town of Weilun.

“We awoke to growling.  I looked out my window and saw a German Sheperd rounding up the villagers.  He had them confined to the village square.  If anyone tried to escape he barked at them” said a terrified villager.

Indeed, Maxie would use his prominent teeth to scare people while in a menacing manner barking at them.

“Woof, woof, woof. It’s all I hear.  I’m scared.  My children are crying.  Is there nothing that will stop the insatiable German lust for world domination?” asked a villager who was bitten by Maxie.

Using his natural traits of self-assurance and aggressiveness Maxie bit and barked his way forward to the town of Lwow along the way digging up farmland, defecating on private property and rounding up local bitches, mounting them in full view of outraged locals.  The Polish underground vowed retaliation.  “We will find the bitches who allowed themselves to become impregnated by this German Sheperd and we will cut out their fetuses.”

The Dogkrieg showed no signs of abetting.  Panicked civilians clogged roads lowering morale among NATO troops.  From Brussels, Belgium NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen declared the organization helpless in the face of the ruthless German advance.

“What can we do?  Our Council is helplessly divided.  Some want to sue for peace.  If only we had an American Dog Shield Defense System!”

Two days after the invasion Maxie had penetrated as far as the Narew River leaving behind shattered lives, scattered garbage, impregnated females and feces.

In New York the UN General Assembly passed a nonbinding resolution calling Maxie a “bad, bad doggie” and requested that he return to his preinvasion territory.

Maxie showed no sign of obeying pushing farther into Poland approaching the Bug River and threatening Warsaw.

Poland looked anxiously to Moscow, hoping they would keep neutral.  Despite Poland’s hopes, many German Sheperds in Russia were seen heading towards the border ready to join up with Maxie.

President Obama issued a statement saying that he is keeping an eye on the situation and trusts that a resolution will be forthcoming.

Maxie is rumored to be entering Warsaw.

“I guess we are on our own” said the leader of the Polish resistance.
