In a stunning announcement, the White House today announced the end of the Thanksgiving holiday; it is to be replaced by a new event some are calling “political correctness run amok.” The new event, to be called ”Baracksgiving”, is described by the President as “similar to Thanksgiving in many ways, but it’s now an event that re-energizes the meaningfulness of family while keeping proper perspective on who we are and our place in the world.”

A thinly-veiled attempt at satire, but given the ego of this administration, it certainly sounds plausible!

Well, I thought that "This Just In From The Tongue-In-Cheek News Desk" would be a dead give-away, but just in case that didn't work: This post is satire. Sarcasm. Dramatic irony. Metaphor. Bathos. Puns. Parody. Litotes. And satire. [/overkill]

I will add the stuffed Barack will be full of something and it won’t be stuffing.

My Mom got an email yesterday with this sort of joke - not the same one, but much like it. She was upset. I told her there are much better jokes out there and BO deserves every single one. Some of the best jokes I remember happened after the Nobel announcement. This joke is just labored - it has no feeling.
