The Onion on Obama:
CHICAGO—According to witnesses, a loud black man approached a crowd of some 4,000 strangers in downtown Chicago Tuesday and made repeated demands for change.“The time for change is now,” said the black guy, yelling at everyone within earshot for 20 straight minutes, practically begging America for change. “The need for change is stronger and more urgent than ever before. And only you—the people standing here today, and indeed all the people of this great nation—only you can deliver this change.”
It is estimated that, to date, the black man has asked every single person in the United States for change.
the fine line between rascism & hilarity is drawn.
FSM bless the Onion; I almost fell out of my chair from fits of laughter.
Too many Americans don't give a damn and will vote against their own interests. It never fails. Nice speech though.
i cried when i read that. like a haha cry. then i realized many people feel this way.
"I'll be honest, when that black guy said he would 'stop at nothing' to get change, it kind of scared me," local mechanic Phil Nighbert said. "Just leave me alone."
He's just going to use it for malt liquor.
@1: Isn't that the point?
@5: You're a gem. That made me giggle.
I am so going to Hell.....
I think he likes whiskey, actually.
that is literally the funniest fucking thing ever
This is the funniest thing I've read in the Onion in a long time.
that guy asks me for change all the time. him and his buddy david plouffe.
Hysterical.
@ 11, WORD. I am so tired of Barack Obama and Plouffe spamming my inbox asking for change!
Why do I keep laughing at this? I am a sick person.
