Clinton Refuses to Leave White House
Installs Self in Oval Office


WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) – It seemed like a good idea at the time.

But twenty-four hours after former President Bill Clinton appeared at the White House to endorse President Obama's tax plan, Mr. Obama is “still looking for the right way to ask him to leave,” an aide confirmed today.

Mr. Obama had assumed that once the former President wrapped things up with reporters yesterday, he would say his goodbyes and depart in a waiting car, “but that kind of didn’t happen,” the aide said.

“Clinton kind of went, ‘Do you have a computer I can use? I just want to check my email,’ and then kind of made himself at home in the Oval Office,” he said. “The President was being polite and all, but you could tell he was kind of pissed.”

After spending the better part of two hours surfing the Internet and watching YouTube videos, the former President announced, “Am I the only one around here who’s hungry? Let’s send Gibbs on a Pizza Hut run.”

The aide said that Mr. Obama decided to play “a waiting game” with Mr. Clinton, explaining, “Even the Salahis left eventually.”

But after spending the night “crashing in the Lincoln Bedroom,” the former President was back in the Oval Office, chatting away on the phone.

"He could be there for awhile," the aide said. "He's talking to Bernie Sanders."

1. That is the real story ...

Clinton refuses to leave the stage after private meeting.

It's not the story that Obama abominators (hey, I just made up that term!) here would like to tell: that Obama is weak and has ceded his presidency.

It's just good old Bill (and, yes, I still love him, despite all his deficits): he was invited to a private meeting and just was having too much fun meeting with the press again to leave.

8. It's in his blood.

ETA: Or maybe he is just trying to steal the H's off of the keyboards. (I kid, I kid.)

5. I just went to the site and signed up to be on the e-mail list - it looks like

a hoot:

UPDATE: Last Tuesday’s Borowitz Report about Obama announcing that he is a Muslim to please Republicans was taken seriously by the official Saudi media. Read about this hilarious international incident here.

:rofl:

Thanks for posting this! :hi:

the other times it's time to roll your eyes and move on.
Not too different from when I try to be funny...

13. The real story

Is that the President brought Clinton in to defend his tax plan. He didn't come uninvited. He wasn't a gate crasher.

And what exactly did President Obama assume? He boogied out of the presser to go to a Christmas party, leaving Clinton to defend Obama's tax plan. I doubt he was "upset" because Clinton didn't immediately slink out the back door. Why would he be pissed because Clinton wanted access to a computer? Why would he care,? After all, he was at a party.

This sounds like a bunch of BS spin.

18. This story is obviously BS .... but I wish it weren't.

I wish Bill and Hill would move back into 1600 Pennsylvania permanently.

Say what you want; America never had it better.
