Obama Unionizes Caddies, Squelches Request for Tip
Useful Info Nation Blog ^ | 7/28/2010 | Thomas Bryan

It was a monumental day at Lakehurst Country Club. President Obama, known for being up to three hours late for Cabinet meetings, Congressional talks, and meetings with leaders of traditional US allies such as Great Britain, France, Israel, and Poland, arrived just short of three hours early for his scheduled tee time of 9am.

"I was in awe when he picked me to be his caddy," stammered Petey Sampson, a former drive-thru clerk at McDonalds. "He told me it was because of my tee shirt, which he actually signed. I've decided to never wash it again," Sampson added as he displayed the tye-died Che Guevara tee with a large ketchup stain on his forehead.

Vice President Joe Biden also had his pick of caddies. It is this reporter's opinion that Mr. Biden chose Edward Robinson, the only black caddy available, because of his strong belief in civil rights. "He said 'You look like you have a strong back, son. I bet you could go hours with having to get a drink of water. Do you know any hymns you could sing while we golf?'" Edward beamed as he told the story he'll most likely tell his grandchildren.

I'm not a real golfer, but with this much practice, I might join the tour sometime during my second term. --Chairman O

Even though this is satire, there's one piece that's completely plausible:

"I was in awe when he picked me to be his caddy," stammered Petey Sampson, a former drive-thru clerk at McDonalds.

Happens all too often these days....

You mean Obammy can’t pull his own golf cart? I’d like to see his score card if it is an honest score card. It’s time someone in his golf party keep tabs and leak the info to the golfing world.

Sorry, not my post. On the other hand, I've always felt that if you have to identify it as satire, it probably isn't all that funny. And then on another hand (I'm quickly running out of hands) the closer to the truth it seems, the better the satire.

This is satire? Sounds pretty factually possible to me!

Ackshully, when you read the thing, you can almost hear Biden's brain sizzling. You just KNOW he would say this stuff...somewhere....sometime.

I actually was thinking No Shiite...How typical.

Then when I got to Biden I started laughing and looked at the topics for description.

Still, Biden did say:
“...You cannot go to a 7/11 or Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent...”

As Joe said:
“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” Biden said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

Or you can just have fun for 4 Minutes of Joegaffe Biden:
