In an upcoming People magazine interview, Barack and Michelle Obama sit down and discuss life as the First Oppressed Couple of the United States. Hoping to shed light and relate to recent events in Ferguson, Missouri, and New York City, Barack reached into the upstairs White House bedroom of his mind and called upon his famous imaginary son to make an appearance:
The small irritations or indignities that we experience are nothing compared to what a previous generation experienced,” President Obama said. “It’s one thing for me to be mistaken for a waiter at a gala. It’s another thing for my son to be mistaken for a robber and to be handcuffed, or worse, if he happens to be walking down the street and is dressed the way teenagers dress.
Once again, Barack Obama’s imaginary son has found himself unfairly in trouble with the law. If you recall, his imaginary son was also shot by an imaginary neighborhood watch guard in the same style as Trayvon Martin. But Obama’s imaginary son is plucky and resilient and has lived a hard life in the hood so he keeps bouncing back.
In his life, Obama’s imaginary son has been shot at, concussed out of football, and racially profiled. Yet he keeps picking himself up and carrying on. Obama’s imaginary son should be an example to us all. No matter what kind of imaginary circumstances we find ourselves in, we can continue on with our imaginary lives.
One day this country can hopefully move on from racism experienced by imaginary people — and, let’s face it, the country doesn’t have the best of history of its treatment of imaginary people. We have, however, made progress in the civil rights of imaginary people and for that we, as a country, should be proud. We shouldn’t ignore, however, the real truth that racism toward imaginary sons is still a real problem, as our President constantly reminds us. We can’t be afraid to have the conversation, no matter how painful it might be, about continuing the racial healing of imaginary people.
President Obama, however, also should look inward and ask why his imaginary son continues to put himself in these situations. Perhaps it is also his own failings as an imaginary parent. Maybe his imaginary son is trying to rebel against the pressures that come with being the first imaginary son of the United States. Perhaps the President can get him some better-fitting clothes and tell him to stay in school instead of having constant run-ins with imaginary police.
Obama himself has been racially profiled so much in his life that, in order to relate to the struggles in Ferguson, he has to cite an imaginary person out of thin air to prove it. Obama’s American story apparently isn’t overcoming an absent father, being raised by loving grandparents, attending Columbia and Harvard Universities, and becoming President of the United States.
His story, as we are constantly reminded, is been being mistaken for a waiter, something his closest adviser also did to a four-star general. “Before [becoming president], Barack Obama was a black man that lived on the South Side of Chicago, who had his share of troubles catching cabs,” the First Lady said in the interview.
In the same conversation, Michelle Obama claimed a woman profiled her by asking for help to reach for something off a shelf during her (widely publicized) trip to Target:
I tell this story – I mean, even as the first lady – during that wonderfully publicized trip I took to Target, not highly disguised, the only person who came up to me in the store was a woman who asked me to help her take something off a shelf. Because she didn’t see me as the first lady, she saw me as someone who could help her. Those kinds of things happen in life. So it isn’t anything new.
Silly racist peasant asking our Queen for assistance.
The President of the United States seems more comfortable citing the struggles of his imaginary son than the privileged successes of his real daughters. In truth, Obama’s son would have attended private schools in Chicago, just like his daughters. He would then be attending Sidwell Private School in DC, just like his real daughters. Obama’s imaginary son would get his pick of any college in the world, just like his real daughters. His imaginary son would then go on to any career he chose, in medicine, law, Hollywood, or Wall Street, just like his real daughters. But that doesn’t fit the divisive racial narrative — so his son lives the hard-knock life.
According to Obama, we still have much work to do in the race relations of imaginary people. Unfortunately, the healing can’t begin until the country moves on from this imaginary President
“No matter what kind of imaginary circumstances we find ourselves in, we can continue on with our imaginary lives.”
Liberals. In a nutshell!
You are going to get in trouble with all that photoshopping....Al’s coming for you...lol
Drain Bamaged...Does the ACA cover lobotomies?
Ha...Obama’s imaginary son gets slapped up by Adam Smith’s invisible hand.
0bama’s imaginary son has a more believable background and history that the kenyan, commi, usurper Hussein does.
I thought Mooch only traveled with secret service protection....her whole Target story is a joke
Imagine not perceiving a woman dressed in that get-up as FLOTUS.
Please tell me that’s a Photo Shopped Picture.
First Lady = Worst Lady...
All of a sudden I have an Idea for a Remake of “Harvey”.
“I thought Mooch only traveled with secret service protection....her whole Target story is a joke”
Only to the casual obeserver. Actually, Michelle was sent on an imaginary shopping trip accompanied by Barak’s imaginary son who was there to fend off imaginary insults from rednecks who, of course, shop at Target. A First Lady’s work never ends.
“Barack and Michelle Obama sit down and discuss life as the First Oppressed Couple of the United States.”..............
“First Oppressed Couple”, all B.S. If you are LOOKING for something to offend you, it is pretty easy to find it.
I thought Clinton was sterile, and Chelsea was Webb Hubbell’s daughter? Where is proof this is ‘Bubba’s boy?
NKs Robot Boy!
Not even that hilariously Robotic John John Kerry can hold a candle to lil UN when it comes to having a Mechanical Personality,...
