Default A new Obama's definition of 'change'

Obama Revises Campaign Promise Of 'Change' To 'Relatively Minor Readjustments In Certain Favorable Policy Areas' | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

Would you like to know how Obama defines his 'changes'? Yes?

Quote:
In a slight shift from his campaign trail promise, President Obama announced Monday that his administration's message of "Change" has been modified to the somewhat more restrained slogan "Relatively Minor Readjustments in Certain Favorable Policy Areas."

"Today, Americans face a great many challenges, and I hear your desperate calls for barely measurable and largely symbolic improvements in the status quo," said Obama, who vowed never to waver in his fight for every last infinitesimal nudge forward on the controversial issues of torture and the military ban on homosexuals. "Remember: Yes we can, if by that you mean tiptoeing around potentially unpopular decisions that could alienate a large segment of the populace." Washington insiders said that, while the new mottos are certainly in keeping with Obama's pledge of government transparency, they are significantly less catchy.
Obama can change a lot of things in different ways and he would like to do it in a way that nobody can find out about it. Is it interesting?

HILARIOUS!!

NEPatriot was already a complete joke with no credibility, but for him to link to a well known satire site is beyond hysterical. The guy basically googles looking for things.

NEPatriot exposed. Looking forward to his comments on this. He's putting on his spin cap... (anybody remember Beanie & Cecil, the latter the bodiless dinosaur).

Obama is ridiculed here every day.. so what else is new. The person who thought it was serious is the consummate rightie...
