According to the Associated Press, Illinois Senator Barack Obama appeared at a “Faith Forum” in Lake Forest, California with Illinois Senator Barack Obama.
It was the first time the two men had appeared at such an event. Senator Obama spoke mostly on his support for legalized abortion, while Senator Obama talked about the biblically-outlined responsibility for people to help those less fortunate.
According to the AP, “Their comments came at a two-hour forum on faith hosted by the minister Rick Warren at his megachurch in Orange County, Calif. Obama joined Warren for the first hour, and Obama for the second. The two men briefly shook hands and hugged each other during the switch.”
The event did reinforce the images of elitism and arrogance that plague Senator Obama’s campaign. Said one rural Arkansan (called simply because when in doubt, Clunkline asks a rural Arkansan, given their very clear views on issues like trailer decoration and proper hayseed-chewing technique) “It’s just like Obama to get up on stage and give himself a big hug. I’m surprised he didn’t kiss himself, but I guess Muslims frown on that stuff.”
Pundits have theorized that the reason John McCain doesn’t have a similar event is that ancient Inca legends warn of a “Patchacutichanca”, which loosely translates to “Jowlpocalypse”, a tragic, world-ending event brought about by an oversatuation of jowls in too small a space. Jowlpocalypse is rumored to conclude with the entire world being flattened under a layer of saggy, wrinkly, liver-spotted skin, where those who aren’t crushed will eventually suffocate.
It isn’t known whether Senator Obama will make any more appearances with himself during his campaign, but Senator Obama is rumored to be on the Vice Presidential short list. Senator Obama refused to comment, instead saying “We’ll all know once the convention rolls around.”
So, yeah… look at the article… That is a real quote. Someone fucked up.
