British Paper Slams Obama Falklands Dithering

The Daily Telegraph, one of the largest newspapers in Great Britain has written an op-ed slamming the Obama Administration's handling of the Falkland Islands issue. This comes after Obama snubbed British Prime Minister Gordon Brown last year and also released documents accusing Britain of cooperating in torture.

The Telegraph couldn't be clearer in decrying Obama's cluelessness on foreign policy, especially about the Falklands. Recently as much as 40 billion barrels of oil was found surrounding the islands, which are owned by Britain. Argentina's claims and invasion of the islands in 1982 led to a short war which Britain decisively won.

From the article:

One has to wonder what benefit America gets out of hurting Britain on this issue. Perhaps Obama thinks that the more Leftist Latin American regimes will somehow approve of the US. If that is the case, he is truly mistaken, as most Latin American nations dislike the Argentineans, and have little sympathy for the mess Argentina got into over the Falklands.

Zing!

Obama: U.S. Supplies of Funk 'Dangerously Low'

Defense Secretary Robert Gates is extremely concerned over intelligence reports that American stockpiles of funk have reached record lows. It is estimated that the levels, which dropped below 'fly' last week, could reach as low as 'jive.'

These deficits are believed to be caused by the election of the United States' first celebrity President, who graces TMZ and People more than Lindsay Lohan and Angelina Jolie's breasts.

"This is beyond words," said the Defense Secretary, "If this keeps up, our domestic production of funk could fall to just 50,000 kilofunks this year. At this rate, we'd be dependent on foreign-produced funk."

The top funkologist at the University of Hip has explained the funk deficit. "The biggest producers of funk outside the United States are Spain, Argentina, and Iran. Iran alone provides one-third of the world's funk supply through traditional means, such as goat dances and American flag cook-ins."

President Obama is attempting to fix the funk gap. He has instituted a mandatory statute for all Americans to 'get down' this year at least twice. He has also called for the increased usage of break dancing.

"This is a momentous day," said Gates, "When we can meet our challenges by putting on our platform shoes and getting funky."
