Obama Admits: I Was Born inMorocco
WASHINGTON, D.C. In a press conference this morning, President Barack Obamaadmitted that he was, in fact, born in Morocco.
"It's half-way between Kenya and the US," Mr. Obama explained, "so in the spirit ofbipartisan compromise I'm going to admit that I was born in Morocco. I haven't seenthe long-form birth certificate either and I don't remember my birth, so who knows?There's probably some truth in both sides. I hope by extending this olive branch to myopponents that we can lay this matter to rest."
This attempt to reach across the aisle to Republicans follows Mr. Obama'scompromise that extended tax cuts to the richest in the country and lowered theestate tax in order to make sure the millions of unemployed Americans don't starvefor the next few months. He hopes this compromise will lay the matter of his disputedcitizenship to rest.
"It's a good start," said the Washington Post's David Broder. "I recently visited a smalltown filled with Real Americans in West Virginia, and I found them to be hostile tothe president. But if he's willing to stand back from his ultra-liberal 'Hawaii is part ofAmerica' position, I believe that they'll be more amenable to his liberal agenda, likediscussing allowing homosexuals in the military."
Out-going Democratic Senator Evan Bayh applauded the president's concession."This is exactly what Democrats should be doing. Obstructing the Republican agendalike we did for the last two years, including the Republican desire to impeach thepresident, only divided America and didn't accomplish anything for the Americanpeople. The people didn't want Barack Obama to be president; they wanted low taxeson the wealthy and for someone to take out, excuse me, take care of Social Security."
He added, "We should be listening to the American people, not some election thatoccurred, may I remind everyone, over two years ago."
The debate over the president's place of birth has dogged him for the first two years ofhis presidency as intellectuals on both sides of the debate had strong evidence in favorof their own opinion. The fury, though, has ruined the bipartisan spirit of the BushAdministration, even spilling over to some of Georgetown's finest cocktail parties.Political analysts in the nation's capital have been very concerned with gettingAmerica past this debate.
When reached for comment, Republican Representative Michelle Bachmann said,"Morocco? OK, whatever. It's still not America. That's a great compromise because westill win."
