The Day The Joker Came to School: Obama’s Fairytale School Spin

When Barack Hussein Obama tried to pass himself off as `The Poor Boy Who Grew Up to Become President’, tens of millions of Americans recognizing the spin, didn’t buy it.

Now Obama is spinning the tale of `Poor Boy Makes Good’ during their children’s first day back at school tomorrow.

The Preening President who can’t resist pumping his message to the school book set, tries for cool in his opening remarks.

...”No matter what grade you’re in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer, and you could’ve stayed in bed just a little longer this morning,” Obama says, starting off his first day at school speech. “I know that feeling. when I was young, my family lived in Indonesia for a few years, and my mother didn’t have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday—at 4:30 in the morning.”

With all of his school records sealed off from public view, there is, of course, no way of proving if this even ever happened.

“Now I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early,” Obama continues. “A lot of times, I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table. But whenever I’d complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and say, “This is no picnic for me either, buster.”

As there seem to be no pictures of little Barack at this stage in his life, adults subjected to the same speech would be suspicious enough to ask, “Where are your school records?” Impressionable children could lap it up like the fairytale it is.

You know better than most of us what the face of communism is really like. No discouragement here though. I have no room for that.

Yep that’s the inspiration for my line in that post....I knew someone would recognize “The Jerk”.

Neat picture!
