Barack Obama Is The Hot Light Of A Dawn

BARACK Obama is the light, the power and the glory:

Obama is the more perfect union. He is a house united. Obama is the New Generation and the hot light of a dawn that goes way beyond clever talk of morning in America.

Labour Party Kinky Sex: The Top Ten Hazel Blears Turn Ons

HAZEL Blears has a list of strangers she’d like to f*ck. You need to be on the list. If you’re not on Blears’ hit list, you might not be able to vote. It’s tough. But such is democracy.

Says Blears of Labour’s Joy Division:

“Campaigning is like sex – if you’re not enjoying it, you’re not doing it right. It should never be a drudge.”

Barack Obama Grows Orchids In The White House

BARACK OBAMA for global warming:

The capital flew into a bit of a tizzy when, on his first full day in the White House, President Obama was photographed in the Oval Office without his suit jacket. There was, however, a logical explanation: Mr. Obama, who hates the cold, had cranked up the thermostat.

Central heating for Obama:

Iowahawk On The Chicago Village Obama Left Behind

IOWAHAWK on Obama Village: It Takes a Proverb to Run a Village

As grad student experts have long taught us, Western culture is quick to marginalize and devalue knowledge from the “Other.” For example, look at the recent ridicule aimed at the “Egg of Power” sculpture President Obama keeps in the Oval Office. There is a disturbing hint of racism to the ridicule, because that sculpture happens to refer to a traditional proverb that comes from, depending on how you Google it, either Kenya or a 1993 Hallmark Kwanzaa card. Would these critics be so cavalier in their snickering if the president had brought some traditional white art, like a Successories poster or replica Harry Potter wand?

Al Gore, The Death Of Mr Toilet And Toilet Paper Poems

GLOBAL warming is all around us.

Thanks to global warming, snow flakes are now becoming more alike. Fact!

The ruddy faces of Mother Nature’s condition – Al Gore and John Kerry – are in Washington:

“The Science is screaming at us,” said Kerry, who, like Gore is a former Democratic Presidential candidate. Kerry also has his own tome on the threat of global warming.

“To the naysayers and the deniers out there, let me make it clear the little snow in Washington does nothing to diminish the reality of the crisis that we face,” Kerry said.

As Tim Blair says:

Note that “Science” is now a proper noun. Like “Jesus”.

Black Tea And A Vanilla Muffin For Barack Obama

IN this post-racial Age of Obama (can we have a term for it?) Detroit hack Kristen Browning-Blas writes from the world’s first green city of how change is yet to happen.

The hyphen hears of a Colorado woman who made a stand. She shall overcome:

After watching the swearing-in on TV, I hauled myself to the gym, thinking I’d march on the Stairmaster along with the parade. Our gym has a cafe/bar, and I stopped to have some soup first.

Barack Obama To Adopt Puppy Child

“FIRST SON will save White House marriage.”

The first son is not Obama – that was, as some assert, Jesus Christ. The first son is… Well, who? It’s the “WHITE HOUSE BABY SHOCKER!”

Says a source: “Whether or not they conceive is in God’s hands. They’re giving it about a year…”

Nancy Pelosi Accepts Role As Contraceptive Device

NANCY Pelosi advocates a “stimulus” package for contraception. Her face will from September 2009, be used to stimulate a crisis of confidence in men and women of breeding age.

Black vans will patrol neighbourhoods of high birth rates and low incomes and beam a holographic image of Nancy into the night skies, down alleys, into cars and wherever people are copulating.

A megaphone will blurt out at all hours of the day and night:

“Before pregnancy Nancy Pelosi looked like this (picture of nubile young woman) and now after five children – Nancy Corinne, Christine, Jacqueline, Paul, and Alexandra – as well as seven grandchildren she looks like this.”

Then the clincher: “Nancy Pelosi is 15.”

In schools, adolescents will be encouraged to masturbate frequently and take classes in premature ejaculation (see poster of the young Pelosi). Pelosi, a Catholic school graduate, will seek out predatory priests and get them to scare the kidz off sex by a series of one-on-one sessions.

All hot water will be turned off, boys will be issued with a regulation sponge and collecting vial (with calibrated targets) and girls… Well, women don’t like sex anyhow, do they Nancy, so they will all become lesbians, nuns, Democrat party congress women or anti-global warming activists.

Advert breaks in football matches will be reduced to 11 seconds. And a new sex education book will teach students that to have really good sex you must first ingest handfuls of cat fur and nail polish, a truism backed up by a big online porn drive.

Says Pelosi:

The exchange:

The revelation came during an exchange Sunday morning on ABC’s THIS WEEK.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?

PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children’s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those – one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.

STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that?

PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy.

Lights fade. Mood music. Sound of muffled sobbing…

Say What, Speaker Pelosi?
Pelosi: Cutting Poor Babies Accelerates Economic Growth
Maybe it’s all that talk about “stimulus”
Kids are Free! Who Knew?
That’s Probably It
Pelosi’s Inane Rant of the Day
Cheaper to kill ‘em than to pay for them
Pelosi: Contraception is Good Stimulus for the Economy

Barack Obama Stories To Come With Sick Bag

A READER of the free London newspaper The Metro, considers Barack Obama:

Would it be possible to provide free sick bags with future copies of Metro? Mainly because if I have to endure yet another grovelling, adoring and sycophantic article or letter concerning how supremely wonderful, handsome, awe-inspiring and all round God-like Barack Obama is, I will be in real danger of emptying my breakfast on to the good people riding my train.

It’s time to get a grip, everyone.

Oliver, London, UK.

New Homes For Guantanamo Bay Mates At LAWNS 12-Step Programme

GUANTANAMO Bay is closing and Old Mr Anorak has selflessly offered to find bed and board for three and maybe four – should Svetlana not return for her trip to the immigration centre – of the Bay’s more handsome residents.

OMA is not obsessed with looks, far from it. He would often compliment the first Lady OMA on her top knot of sun-kissed skin upon which her thatch of blonde hair perched like a smug Tweety pie on a comatose Sylvester (Memoirs Vol. IX, Chapt. XXXVI).

On Harry Potter, Snape, Moonie Labour Lords And Cash For Amendments

THE Sunday Times’s scoop that the former Energy Minister, Lord Truscott was offering to put down amendments to legislation in the House of Lords in return for money – something he denies – is taken up by the BBC.

Readers are treated to this gem:

One of the other peers named, Lord Moonie, a former defence minister, told the BBC that he had been suspicious of the people who had approached him.

Dickens opined that people have names that reflect their character or place in the world.
