He ventured forth to bring light to the world

The anointed one's pilgrimage to the Holy Land is a miracle in action - and a blessing to all his faithful followers.

And it came to pass, in the eighth year of the reign of the evil Bush the Younger (The Ignorant), when the whole land from the Arabian desert to the shores of the Great Lakes had been laid barren, that a Child appeared in the wilderness.

On the Seventh Day he walked across the Channel of the Angles to the ancient land of the hooligans. There he was welcomed with open arms by the once great prophet Blair and his successor, Gordon the Leper, and his successor, David the Golden One. And suddenly, with the men appeared the archangel Gabriel and the whole host of the heavenly choir, ranks of cherubim and seraphim, all praising God and singing: “Yes, We Can.”

[Laverne]

This is must read, laugh out loud stuff.

[freeplancer]

I have not really been keeping up on this, but are some of the foreign press making fun of Obama in any way? That would be funn.y

[ken21]

funny!

now if a brit paper sees through the anointed one,

what’s that tell you?

[ASA Vet]

[Laverne]

Some of the funny part, but truly the whole thing is a laugh fest:

And this is the testimony of one who speaks the truth and bears witness to the truth so that you might believe. And he knows it is the truth for he saw it all on CNN and the BBC and in the pages of The New York Times.

it’s well-written, lively and fun.

i liked the “tribe of media” , a good pun.

[freemama]

Thanks. It was great!

[surely_you_jest]

This is a real hoot. Copied the article and sent it off to a number of like-minded friends. Thanks for posting it.

Now that's funny!!!

[ken21]

i think al obama’s going to implode after labor day.

[Cicero]

I just sent it to my list. Definitely a hoot. Still a bit of sanity left in Merrie Olde England?

Word for the day: “presumptuous.” It’s the new “gravitas”!

Comment on the thread was by some Leftist Limey about how Baraq Husayn is just a politician and shoudln’t be taken seriously.

Comment after that was, “Did Chamberlain listen? Still rebuilding parts of London?”

[Laverne]

Certainly something like this would never appear in the US papers; I enjoyed it and thought others here would as well. I saved it to send to some folks also. Really made me laugh which was sorely needed after the media love fest we are watching over the chosen one.

[13Sisters76]

While watching this lollipop with ears blather away in front of the Gate, all I could think was who the hell did he think he was. I HAD been in a bad mood all day...until reading this. Hilarious! I feel much better- thanks!

[BusterBear]

I always thought that there would be quite a few Brits who wouldn’t fall for this nonsense. Now what we need is a good Gilbert & Sullivan-type operetta to make fun of the Obama’s overblown, Wagnerian-like pronouncements.

Darn funny and a little too close to the truth.

[chris_bdba]

I want one of those T shirts!

[Blood of Tyrants]

The Obama-maniacs will read it and not realize that it is satire.

From there the Child went up to the city of Jerusalem, and entered through the gate seated on an ass.

So much comic material there.

[chickpundit]

Thanks for posting ... hilarious! It’s worth reading a couple more times.

Verily, who is this Child that he opens our hearts and minds to the audacity of hope?”

LOL

[maine-iac7]

Rather scary that we have to go to a foreign paper for the truth about the buffoons dog and pony show

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Thanks for posting, Laverne. It is absolutely hilarious. Every sentence is rich. I sent to my daughter, but I’m afraid she’s a lost cause, sorry to say.

[ken21]

bttt.

[Billthedrill]

A BTT for a good one. Chrissie Matthews, of course, thinks it’s accurate.

[MrCFdovnh]

Excellent!

[happygrl]

Leave it to the British to achieve this level of satire.

As good as it gets.

[JDoutrider]

Most Excellent!

Obamamessiah Ping.

[dubie]

The Child was blessed in looks and intellect. Scion of a simple family, offspring of a miraculous union, grandson of a typical white person and an African peasant. And yea, as he grew, the Child walked in the path of righteousness, with only the occasional detour into the odd weed and a little blow

They forgot gay sex but this is aticle is a real hoot. =)

[Skooz]

Well written. Thanks for posting.

[tiredoflaundry]

The Obama-maniacs will read it and not realize that it is satire.

The Obama - maniacs will read this and swear they hear a Choir of Angels singing softly in the background.

[ConservativeMan55]

bttt

[andy58-in-nh]

My wife forwarded this article to me this morning and it is hysterical, if somewhat sobering.

Being Jewish, I have a slightly different take on the issue:

ROTF.

Thanks for the ping. Great stuff, all the way through. My favorite section:

And lo, in Mesopotamia, a miracle occurred. Even though the Great Surge of Armour that the evil Bush had ordered had been a terrible mistake, a waste of vital military resources and doomed to end in disaster, the Child's very presence suddenly brought forth a great victory for the forces of the light.

Tis an honor to be on the BPL (Bubbles’ Ping List).

And I even get a marquee position? Aw Shucks!!!

[proud2beconservativeinNJ]

I’m not sure even Ruswh could top this one. It is as good as it gets.

[proud2beconservativeinNJ]

I’m not sure even Rush could top this one. It is as good as it gets.

For a brief moment last night, the AP (via Yahoo) inadvertently, but correctly, noted the real point of Obama's speech:

Thanks for the *PING*!

And note, you have achieved this great honor despite your propensity to engage in DWTS and Candle Chat.
