President Barack Obamas press secretary, Robert Gibbs, apologized for using the phrase war on terror at a recent press briefing.
I apologize for my insensitivity toward the religion of peace, Gibbs said. As we all know. It is the Presidents position that there is no such war, there is no jihad. What I should have said is that our government will continue to strive to mitigate the effects of man-caused disasters.

You know, you're calling it satire, but it has the ring of truth to it. Like a carillion rings, if you know what I mean...

I guess it is one of those labels that my MAC will refuse to display. Thanks for clearing that up.

Basically, in this statement, Gibbs implys that "Muslims are the Terrorists"!.... which is exactly what Obama is trying not to say!!
Man, Obama & Co. are getting so twisted up in their attempt to pervert the meaning of the English language that it's laughable.

Not only label your posts as satire but could you write in larger letters and post more pictures?

You know, you're calling it satire, but it has the ring of truth to it.Good satire always does. As such it's pretty hard to satirize this administration.
