Obama, Republicans Agree: AT & T Greenhouse Lady is a Hag

2011-10-14T15:47:00.000-07:00

WASHINGTON – After three years of partisan bickering, the White House and Republican leaders agree on one thing: the wife berating her husband from a greenhouse in AT & T’s commercial is mean.

“Maybe she should’ve married John Clark,” President Barack Obama said from the Rose Garden. “We’re up here trying to get a budget together – looking at cuts, or even increasing taxes – and here’s this lady cutting down her husband trying to save on the family phone bill.”

GOP Speaker of the House John Boehner agreed. “I stand with the President on this. Steve would’ve been better off if his wife did marry John Clark. But then we’d be talking about how sorry we are for John Clark. No man should have to put up with that.”

Both parties are especially disappointed with the logistics. “That contentious tone in the greenhouse is what gets me,” said Obama. “It’s probably a greenhouse that Steve built, and that’s how she thanks him? Belittling him in front of everybody?”

“It’s like Hitler complaining to Poland that the terrain is too hard on German tanks. Um, at least that’s what I heard Hank say.”

Taking Occupy Wall Street Lead, Pets Protest Embarrassing Halloween Costumes

2011-10-07T15:52:00.000-07:00

WASHINGTON – As the “Occupy” movement continues to spread across the U.S., dogs and cats are coming out to protest the costumes they’ll be dressed in later this month.

“Mak me sleP oWTSide instead,” read the sign of a 5-year-old schnauzer named Cheech. “I thought he liked the top hat,” lamented his owner Damon Rogers.

Many are surprised at how the pets could assemble at the same times. “Well, it’s not like they have jobs to go to,” said Ethel McNamara, owner of 3 cats. “They live here with me, so they come and go as they wish.”

Others are bewildered that the animals could even make protest signs. “I paid a lot of money for them to go to school for training,” said one dog owner. “I’m just struck by how poor their spelling is.”

First Lady Spotted at Target, Only Recognized by Cashier Anthony Weiner

ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINA – First Lady Michelle Obama was spotted shopping incognito at Target Thursday. She reportedly spent 30-40 minutes shopping and was only recognized by her cashier, former New York Representative Anthony Weiner.

“I knew right away it was her,” he said. “I have a great eye for detail — except, you know, with social media.”

The Secret Service entered the store about 30 minutes before Mrs. Obama. Weiner said he wasn’t at the register at that time. “I was in the break room chatting up a new part-timer. It was awesome. She’s been busy with college so she hasn’t read much news in the last six months.”

When asked if he talked with the First Lady, Weiner said he didn’t have very much time.

“She only bought a few things.I got some great pictures with my cell phone. After my shift was over I posted them on Twitter.”
