The Communist Party of the United States announced it is supporting Barack Obamas reelection bid. It used to be that we had to run our own candidates for public office, recounted Sam Webb, chairman of the Communist Party USA. In recent years, though, weve found a huge overlap with many of the candidates running on the Democratic ticket. Of these, President Obama is the best of the lot.
Webb hastened to point out that this doesnt mean we are totally satisfied with everything he has done in his first term. The airwaves havent yet been cleared of fascist propaganda. Capitalists are still allowed to profiteer from meeting human needs. And property has not been fully collectivized. But we see signs of progress in all these areas and are confident that a second term will bring significant breakthroughs on all fronts.
NARAL also proclaimed its support for a second Obama term. NARAL President Nancy Keenan said we are proud to extend our endorsement to a man who has done more to ensure that no woman need endure an unwanted pregnancy than any of his predecessors. Under his rule no insurer will be permitted to refuse to provide whatever measure of birth control is necessary to prevent or terminate a pregnancy. He has brought us closer to the day when a more equitable distribution of child-bearing responsibilities is attained.

“Key” endorsements? Are they from John McCain, Mitt Romney, and Andrew Sullivan?
A good one!
There you go; blurring the line of reality again.
Then it's the tree huggers turn.
