Party Time with the Democratic Party’s Presidential Ticket

wings.jpgIs Barack Obama compensating for his despair over the latest CNN Poll — that shows Obama in a dead heat with McCain, and with ZERO convention bounce — by taking other peoples’ food? Seems that presidential nominee Barack Obama helped himself to a pile of chicken wings he didn’t buy and he didn’t order.

The image — from a press pool report yesterday in Hamilton, Indiana — shows a desperately hungry Obama voraciously tearing into other people’s chicken wings.

Obama then joined Joe Biden, who had made directly for the bar when the two candidates arrived, at a table celebrating another birthday.

“He’s eating our appetizers,” said Luanne Gearhart, who had stepped away from the table for a few minutes only to find Obama in her seat. “But God’s made it this way.”

Bless your big Christian heart, Luanne! We’ve all wondered why Obama looks so skinny. I guess we know why now: He’s reduced to stealing food in order to eat! Meanwhile, here’s Joe Biden singin’ for his supper. Dude, thank God you’re too old for American Idol. If you tried out you’d be a star of the bloopers reel. Were you hitting the Natty Bo (for those who don’t know, Natty Bo is shorthand for National Bohemian, a beer unique to Baltimore) before you proved that white men can’t dance?:


Maybe Barack has fallen on economic hard times and can’t afford to buy his own food. I knew we had a near-recession, but I hadn’t realized that the Democratic party’s dynamic duo presidential ticket was one step removed from dumpster diving.

I guess hanging with Barack Obama ain’t exactly the fun gig Biden thought it might be when he signed on to the good ship Titanic II. Yesterday, while Barack was stealing food from little old ladies, Joe reportedly (see the press pool’s report above) headed straight for the restaurant’s bar to find some liquid courage. Probably a good thing it wasn’t karaoke night. Fortified with an adult beverage the hoary Joe Biden might have started to sing the Obama-I’m-a-son-of-a-single-mama blues.
