An Obama Joke, at Last!!!
Just heard this yesterday and thought I would pass it along [despite my general aversion to telling jokes].
A Christian, a Jew & Barack Obama are floating on a raft in the middle of the ocean & Barack Obama says:
This joke doesn't really work because there's no Muslim on the raft.

Wow -- it's got a life of its own now!
One of the rare cases where one can trace a joke to an origin. Andy Borowitz invented it, and it's actually an approved campaign joke.

Hey buddy, I just served up all you can eat a couple of days ago.
Recently Obama has found himself between a rock and a hard place, trying to come out against pork without reviving fears he's a Muslim.

And yes, all of these jokes are my own, dislike them as you will, bloodline 100% traceable, pure pedigree, just to please Alex.

Well nice job Desidero. Obama has a fine sense of humor, he just isn't that funny. Big ears, bad bowling, healthy eating, how far can that go?
This joke is not mine.
Tony Snow arrived in heaven and soon was let into a room of his dreams. There was John Kennedy talking to Reagan, Tim Russert laughing with George Washington.... Tony was looking around the full room in delight when suddenly everyone stopped talking and looked to the door attentively.
Tony looked and saw that it was Barack Obama that had just walked in. Tony turned to his guide and said "Why is he here? He was alive and healthy...". His guide stopped him and said "Oh that's God, he just thinks he's Obama"

Oddly enough John Glenn came out against McCain today - said he didn't have the Wright stuff.

Obama went to speak at a kindergarten earlier this week - raised $4.72 in cash, two stuffed animals and a peanut butter and jelly sammich.

A few months ago I was assured by a disillusioned former neocon who now thinks Iraq was a very bad idea who nonetheless will make himself vote for McCain tell me that there isn't a damn thing funny about him. If I was supporting him I'd probably feel the same way.

John McCain - America's Greatest Second Choice! (i.e. proof that sometimes being second liked works when in tandem with not being most hated)

An Obama Joke? I am not laughing. Why? Must not be a joke.

I was going to say he's the black hole where jokes go to die, but then that would be racist. And unfunny.
