The Postal Services created a stamp with a picture of President Obama on it.



The Postal Service noticed that the stamp was not sticking to envelopes.

This enraged the President, who demanded a full investigation.

After a month of testing and $1.73 million in congressional spending, a special Presidential commission presented the following findings:

1.The stamp is in perfect order.

2. There is nothing wrong with the glue.

3. People are spitting on the wrong side.

@ kbit:

I do not appreciate racist contributions.

I think you should not have published this joke here. It tells more about you - and nothing good - than about President Obama.

By the way, I enjoyed reading many of the other jokes that you have posted, but not this one....

Racist?

What exactly is racist about that joke?

Your post says a lot about you, actually. Yours is the typical knee-jerk reaction, playing the "I am offended' card.

It's just a joke and not a racist joke in an form.

@ DionysusToast: I am not offended, why should I. I have just noticed that the jokes posted here on Obama are quite different from those I have read on Bush.

I think that those jokes represent the attitude of an arrogant white middle class, which is on its way to gradual decline to insignificance.


Here is another one by @ kbit: I would also call that bad taste.

Portraying somebody as incapable and retarded has always been part of the political culture in Western democracies.

When it comes to spitting and shitting, this is just reflecting disrespect and not really funny. There is no relation between Obama's character or attitude and those so called jokes. The common denominator is just scorn or hatred.

And yes, I think that the jokes are originating from frustrated members of the white middle class, and that they reveal that racism is still rooted in that part of the society.

Fat Tails

Your assertions are ridiculous. Every US president is the butt of jokes.

There is nothing racist about that - this is just a figment of your imagination.

ya i know what you mean but the only thing the MIGHT be out of hand in that whole joke was this: '3. People are spitting on the wrong side.' and even then i dont see anything wrong with it.. if it was a white guy id still think it was funny.. thats the problem, now that it happens to be a black guy means there will always be that card to play.. its double standard if you ask me..

i dont base my opinions off of color, only past and present action. my red/green/blue betterrenko bars will tell you that.. there is actually very little white on my chart..



btw, i could pull the reverse racism card here if i wanted.. anyways, no hard feelings.. there are no feelings in trading..

now the thread is 'off the charts'..

"BetterRenko", is n't that arrogant as well? Who is this guy that he pretends that it is better than Renko? Also I am not sure that those "BetterRenko" bars will work on a chart with a black background. That would be DarkRenko, which is known to produce many false signals.

I can't approve your chart, it is politically incorrect to use stolen indicators on dirty charts, and also this is the wrong thread to post, your chart is not funny, it is serious
