I love Satirewire. I've loved it for years. Imagine my delight when my wife told me that they've put up a satire "transcript" of the Obama-Brewer tarmac encounter. Then she read it out loud to me. * snort *
An excerpt:
OBAMA: That was very thoughtful, Governorl! But I hear you keep [the sun] on 24 hours here, to search for illegals.
BREWER: Oh now Mr. President, you’re not worried about being caught, are you?
OBAMA: On the contrary, Governor, I’m worried all this sun will brown your skin. You might have to arrest yourself.
Read the entire funny piece here:
TRANSCRIPT OF OBAMA-BREWER TARMAC TIFF RELEASED
Note (just have to say this): even with satire, I HATE the use of the word "illegal" as a noun. Hate it. It's dehumanizing.
Anyway, I think this piece is Teh Funny. I don't have a whole lot to add. Well - except that I'm very glad I am in California right now and not in Tucson. Sorry about that.
Enjoy!
