| oh trust me, with Rahm Emmanuel as chief of staff and Biden as VP there will be plenty to make fun of in the white house. Obama isn't so easy to mock now because its hard to find things that are ridiculous about the person you love, its the honeymoon period. Even Obama is mocking himself with the "mutt" joke the other day. |

| Obama's a big boy, I'm sure he's heard most of the ignorant racist black jokes out there by now. He hasn't even takn office yet. I'm sure he'll give us plenty tto make fun of without having to sink to sniggerings we all told each other back in 5th grade. |

Okay, here's one I found that's amusing.
When Barack Obama was performing his speech after being elected as president, he had to do it behind three inch thick bullet-proof glass.
I thought that was a bit harsh - just because he's black doesn't mean he's going to shoot anyone. |

Here's one I heard yesterday...
Did you read the headlines the day after the election? Black man beats woman and senior citizen! |

With the economy sinking more and more, I think "Obama Hoover" may be appropiate! It's not his fault, but he'll get the blame.

| Barack Obama is 1/2 Black and 1/2 White. If someone's going to call him a black guy, then he can be referred to as a white guy in the same sense. |

I'm wondering how many people will "say the wrong thing" by mistake. Wasn't it Lindsay Lohan who was so excited because they just elected a "colored president?"
I predict news of someone important tripping over a PC word at least every other week.
The tell-tale thing will be how the newspapers treat an Obama supporter compared to someone who doesn't support him. Supporters will get a pass. Non-supporters will be raked over the coals, called a racist, etc.. |

Yup, that's where a lot of the humor will come from.
Just got done reading his books, and man, this guy has lived like a broke-ass post-college loser like us, too. I have no doubt had he been in our age bracket, he'd be an ESL teacher in Korea. He's had 3 plates and a two cups in his crap studio apartment. He's owned a single suit for 5 years. He's had family around the world he could never afford to visit except for once in his mid-20's.
Bush has never known what it's like to have 3 plates in his kitchen. Hell, most suburban, folks-paid-for-your-college types don't know what that's like.
Him coming from relatively little means and his intellect making him what he is--damn hard poking fun at someone like that. |

| How can you make fun out of the man who has single handedly saved the world economy by inspiring colossal sales of pillow cases and scissors since becoming president. |
