Obama Statue: The Fundraiser!

I am so gleeful that my friend A forwarded this information to me. I, dear reader, now share it with you ...

Dear Friend,

We have the distinguished honor of being on a committee for raising five million dollars for placing a statue of Barack Obama in the Hall of Fame in Washington, D.C.

This committee was in a quandary where to place the statue. It was not wise to place it beside the statue of George Washington, who never told a lie, nor beside Franklin D. Roosevelt, who never told the truth, since Barack Obama could never tell the difference.

We finally decided to place it beside Christopher Columbus, the greatest Democrat of them all. He left not knowing where he was going and, upon arrival, did not know where he was. He returned not knowing where he had been and did it all on borrowed money.

Over 5,000 years ago, Moses said the Children of Israel, "Pick up your shovels, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the Promised Land." Nearly 5,000 years later, Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, light up a Camel, this IS the Promised Land."

Now, Obama is stealing your shovels, kicking your asses, raising the price of your Camels, and mortgaging the Promised Land. If you are one of the fortunate people who has any money left after paying taxes, we will expect a generous donation as a contribution to the worthwhile project.

Fraternally,

Obama Statue Committee

[By the way ... I just noticed that Blogger's spellchecker has finally started recognizing "Obama" rather than flagging it all the time.]
