this has a pretty good similarity to an actual event:

“If we really want to make up with Great Britain,” said Biden, “we need to become more like them. We should adopt their health care system. And their ban on guns. And their ban on knives. Man, I hate knives… I cut myself on one last time I was in my secret undisclosed location under the old U.S. Naval Observatory… hey, this is off the record, right?”

There is no such thing as satire when discussing the Obama administration.

One just never knows....

This part was good:

“said Obama. “But the manner in which it was handled was an affront to acceptable diplomatic norms. This crude and disparaging document heaped numerous, undeserved insults on the divine ruler of our compassionate and nurturing motherland. It used such crass and dispicable terms as ‘tyrant’ and ‘despot’ to describe the gracious tolerance of King George the Third to the aspersions and indignities heaped upon him by a cabal of ungrateful rebels.””

GEEEEEZ!!

Isn't it sad when you have to wonder if an article is satire or not?

Sadly we all can see the current president making an apology like this cuz he has apologized for just about everything else LOL

I am certain that this satire, but don't be surprised if
during the NYC fireworks,(1609-2009)he apologizes to the
Native American community for ripping off Manhattan from
them.

To make up for it the alleged President sent the Queen a complete set of the collected works of Don Ho.

Helps build up the image of him as a native of Hawaii, you see...

The bigger problem is that he sent them on 8-track.
