Obama: First Year in Review



Posted: In the same vault where the State of Hawaii is hiding Obama's "long-form" birth certificate, whatever the hell that is

WASHINGTON -- This week marks the one-year anniversary of President Obama's inauguration. As a public service to its readers, the Free-Ass. Editorial Bored has compiled a list of his administration's top 10 accomplishments from its first year in office.

1. Changed political affiliations several times in response to stinging criticism of his spending priorities that included a $787 billion stimulus package and a $1 trillion health care reform bill. In one year's time, he became a socialist, a fascist, a Nazi and then the Joker. His opponents have even started calling him far worse: a Democrat.

2. Bought a dog and played with it.

3. Invented the wildly popular drinking game known as "A Whole Host of ..."

4. As is tradition for every first-year president, he stopped dying his hair to bring about a gravitas-conveying salt-and-pepper look.

5. Proved conclusively that he's a Muslim Manchurian candidate by intentionally botching his swearing in so that it didn't really count.

6. Closed down Guantanamo Bay. Oops, that is from our future column, "Obama: Fourth Year in Review." We regret the error.

7. Repealing George W. Bush's "don't ask/don't tell" policy regarding progress reports from the generals in Iraq.

8. Vowing to enroll the U.S. treasury in a credit counseling program to pay off its debt and get back on the track to financial freedom.

9. Drank beer with a cop, a professor and a vice president at a Washington, D.C.-area Houlihan's to finally end racism once and for all; realized the only person who "acted stupidly" in the situation was Vice President Biden, who took a leak in the Rose Garden after "climbing to the top of the beer summit."

10. Nominated Roseanne Barr to the Supreme Court.

Top Republican: Mass. Senate Race Is Referendum on Tiger Woods

Posted: On a fire hydrant and then a tree.

BAHSTON -- All eyes are on the Bay State where the hotly contested race for the late Edward Kennedy's Massachusetts U.S. Senate seat between baby-killing Democratic Attorney General Martha Coakley and Republican family values candidate and former nude male model Scott Brown is reaching a fever pitch. As voters make their way to the polls, the Senate's top Republican today announced that today's race puts more than just a Senate seat at stake: It's a referendum on Tiger Woods.

"The Republican party stands for family values and always has," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). "A vote for Martha Coakley is a vote endorsing Tiger Woods's dishonest and disgraceful behavior."

"Curling iron rape," he added. Brown has also pleaded with voters to make their voice heard in the special election.

"This is not some cynical attempt to gain votes at the last minute," he said. "It's important that people use their voice to speak out and publicly rebuke Tiger Woods. And if they're not comfortable making that statement with their vote, I would tell them this: This race is also a referendum on the accomplishments of our gay, Muslim, crack-smoking non-U.S. citizen president."

"He kills babies too... and puppies," he added.
