Obama To Take Break From Campaigning

You know, sometimes humor hits pretty darned close to reality. In this case, I'm talking about Obama's nationwide tour to campaign for Democrats... all of that travel paid for by us taxpayers. Sometimes, looking at his full schedule, it seems that Obama does nothing EXCEPT campaign. Apparently the folks over at "The Onion" saw it, too, and decided to poke fun at it.

Following a speech tomorrow afternoon in support of Senate hopeful Richard Blumenthal, top Democratic Party member Barack Obama is expected to take advantage of a brief lull in his hectic schedule to govern the United States of America, sources reported Thursday. "Barack should have a little bit of free time in the car when we travel between the get-out-the-vote rally in East Hartford and the fundraising dinner for [Connecticut gubernatorial candidate] Dan Malloy," said Obama aide Lisa McMaster.

"Those 15 or so minutes should allow him to skim the past week’s national security briefings, sign a few pieces of legislation, and shoot a 45-second call to South Korean prime minister Kim Hwang-sik to hammer out a free-trade pact."

You gotta love The Onion...
