September 20, 2013: According to the National Report, two reliable confidential informants inside the White House have reported that Obama suffered a mental breakdown and is presently resting and under a doctors care. From the report:
- This afternoon the National Report received three calls on our nationwide hot tip line (206) 222-1975. Two of the three callers are insiders known to the National Report to be reliable confidential informants. Both confirmed this week has been a political disaster for the president and this has taken a tremendous toll on him.
- Earlier this week Russian President Vladimir Putin derailed the president’s plan to bomb Syria and bury the U.S. in another war, causing Obama a great deal of shame and public embarrassment.
- Before Putin resolved the Syrian crisis, he granted political asylum to Edward Snowden, the man who exposed that the NSA is secretly spying on all US citizens with Obama’s approval.
I can believe Obama’s had a nervous breakdown. His thin skin, bad temper and atrocious leadership virtually guaranteed he would at some point or other.
But I am skeptical of this particular source for two reasons:
One, the author got something totally wrong that is very easy to check: “Today’s Gallup poll results have Obama’s approval rating dropped to the lowest in presidential history.”
Obama’s lowest approval at GALLUP was 40% in August 2011. His lowest this month was 44%. The four lowest presidential lows since GALLUP has been tracking this statistic have been GWH Bush 32%, GW Bush 31%, Nixon 25%, Truman 22%.
Two, the ads on the sidebar are of the “I was kidnapped by aliens and gave birth to Satan’s spawn” variety.
Not that absurd grocery store check out tabloids don’t get some stuff right. I think it was The Globe that reported, correctly, that John Edwards had a baby with his mistress while his wife was dying of cancer.
But it puts such a bad taste in my mouth to trust any blog that posts what’s in the sidebar next to the Obama breakdown story: “Twins separated at birth marry and give birth to grotesque incest child.”
Um, hate to break it to ya, but conjoined twins are always IDENTICAL twins. As in two boys or two girls. As in they can’t have a baby together. Sheesh. And the photo looks like something Picasso dreamed up while on LSD, which is worse than getting the Oompa Loompa song stuck in my head.
I need eye bleach.
