Fafblog brings us the real Obama facts

Fafblog -- the funniest writing on the net for my money -- tackles the question of Barack Obama's dark side:

FACT! Barack Obama has been friends with Rashid Khalidi, an openly Arab Arab who is so Arab he writes about other Arabs. Is Barack Obama part of the international Arab conspiracy to trick white people into thinking about Arabs? Answer: also maybe.
FACT! Barack Obama talks about his white mother and his white grandparents and the white half of his family that is white, but did you know that half of his family is also black? In fact, half his family is so black that Obama keeps them hidden away on a whole other continent where they speak in a strange, otherworldly code which is not even English. What is Obama trying to hide? Possibly something black. BONUS FACT! Barack Obama may be half-white and half-black, but he married a woman who is completely black. In a way, doesn't that make him three-quarters black? Math doesn't lie, people!
FACT! "Obama" is an ancient Muslim name meaning "He Who Deceives the White Man with his Telegenic Charisma, Angular Good Looks, and Deceptively Conservative Policy Proposals." Coincidence? Or co-bama?

Barack Obama: Black? (Thanks, Lynn!)

"Angular Good Looks"

I need to find a reason to use that phrase this week.

I just finished reading the main page of fafblog and I'm pretty sure my IQ got smallerer. >.

Now now, 3/4 black is pushing it, but I'd be willing to compromise and say he's 3/5 white.

Fafblog should be required reading for the 12-24, 49-75 and 25-48 age groups.

Wait a minute. Obama is black?? I thought he was Irish, you know, like O'Leary or O'Malley or what have you. And here I wasn't going to vote for him because of the whole St. Patty's Day / Green Beer thing. Can we still blame that on him anyway?

Did anyone else, while reading this, "hear" it in the voice of Stephen Colbert?

I hear that Obama went to a secretive school when he was a "gifted youngster". What did he learn there, and whose agenda was he tutored in?

It's funny because of all the dog-whistles the Repubs are using (cries a little into her hands.)

His middle name is Hussein.
