WASHINGTON (AP) – A group of angry veterans descended on the National Archives to protest the display of the Constitution, after it had been modified by the White House to depict an image of President Obama superimposed upon the words of the founding document.

The leader of the veterans, Don Van Beck, had a copy of a law saying that such “defacement” of the Constitution was illegal, and called the alteration a “disgrace.”
DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, however, enthusiastically praised the recent refashioning, saying it reflected “the realities of a new way of thinking in our country.”
“The Constitution is a living document. Let’s just say we gave the old gal a facelift,” said Schultz.
“Also,” she added, “anyone who opposes it is racist.”
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney explained the reasoning behind the transformation, saying “the President’s vision has always been to make America a better place, and his many accomplishments in office have unquestionably done so. To celebrate the changes he’s made to the country, we’re changing the symbols of the country, as well.”
The “New Face of America” program was rolled out in Florida earlier this week by putting President Obama’s face on the American flag. Following the Constitution’s makeover, officials plan to impose the Commander-in-Chief’s inspiring visage on the Statue of Liberty, all denominations of US coins & currency, and all four heads of Mount Rushmore.
“The plan is to eventually put his face everywhere,” said Carney. “Check your history books. Transformational leaders the world over did it all the time. Every American should have the opportunity every day to gaze adoringly at Obama’s benevolent countenance and know who has been responsible for what’s happened in this country.”
“The plan is to eventually put his face everywhere,”
OK – let’s start with a deep-fat fryer.
Damn, Cat, you beat me. I was gonna say toilet.
And flush.
This is part of the anti-fat plan. Nothing will make you want to throw up as much as seeing Obama everywhere, and once everyone is bulemic Michelle will be proud of her country for the first time in her adult life.
STALIN, LENIN, MAO, HITLER, PHAROH, CASTRO….SURE WHY NOT OBAMA! HE’S RIGHT UP THERE WITH THOSE OTHER FOLKS, AIN’T HE?
As someone else stated in a previous post, Harvey you really need to make it clear when you are presenting satire. Since Obama was thrust upon us it’s become harder to tell.
SoB – well, it does say Newsish Fakery in teeny-weeny print under the post.
On the bright side, the “hard to tell” thing makes it more likely that I’ll wind up on Snopes.
Tom’s got a point but his Caps Lock key is STUCK!!!11!
One suggestion, however, Tom. Would it be okay to change your “UP THERE” to “DOWN THERE” (assuming there is a “down there,” of course) ?
I say we get a professional wrestler to give him a serious case of stink face! 🙂
“and know who has been responsible for what’s happened in this country.”
Like the deadly scorpion, the sting is in the tail!
Awesome!

well, obama is really still a beginner when it comes to “breaking a few eggs” for his socialist/marxist utopian omelet but but he did start ambitiously with mexican huevos rancheros, 300+ mexican eggs broken south of the border and one gringo border patrol egg is a pretty good start. he’s gonna have to play a lot of catch-up tho to get the recognition as an egg breaker like the love of annita duns life chairman mao.
of course old friends like bill “we need a revolution that nescessarily kills off half the population that cant be re-educated” ayers has probably tutored barry on whats next in a second term…..
I would comment that “everything is better with chocolate” but that would sound racist…
I was going to suggest putting obama’s image on a condom, but someone beat me to it.
