Obama: Look, I'm Just Going To Say It: I Collect Antique Nazi Memorabilia

[skeemer]

As I begin my second term as president, I am honored to continue to serve this great country as we tackle the myriad problems that face us in the 21st century. We are a resilient nation, and I think we can meet these problems with swiftness and vigor. I look forward to helping us do just that in my second term.

That being said, there’s something I’ve been meaning to get off my chest for a while now and I figure it’s time I did. It’s not a big deal—honestly, it’s really not at all—but it’s just something I’ve neglected to mention in the past, and now that I’ve been reelected, I think it’s time I just get it over with and tell people already: I collect antique Nazi memorabilia.

He probably makes Michelle dress up in striped pajamas and play a jewish girl in a concentration camp while he plays the Angel of Death.

Comedy is hard, dying is easy. Case in point.

Try dancing or singing because comedy is not you. Now I know what dry humor is, and you stink at that, my friend.
Maybe a clown, give it some thought.

The sad part is he thinks he is funny.

No the sad part is that jrob will not understand this is a parody.

I know it’s the Onion and parody, but what if it were true, so what? People collect all sorts of things. My son collects Lego figures; mrs. bullmikey collects spoons; and I have lots of WWII miniatures (including some Nazi stuff) that I use for my tabletop war games. So what if Obama had a collector’s eye for Nazi memorabilia? I mean it would seem an unlikely hobby for the Chi-town wonder kid (I picture him more as a sports memorabilia kind of guy), but - what the hey! – stranger things have been heard of.

My daughter collects Lego figures also. Maybe we should buy stock?

I hate Legos. Nothing worse than walking to the kitchen at 5 in the morning to make coffee when suddenly you find one embedded in your bare heel. That happened on more than one occassion. I don't know why, but the family found it quite amusing as I screamed at 5 in the morning with this thing stuck in my foot.

Yeah, my son belongs to this mail thing where they send him one a month, selected at random. He really wants the Roman soldier or gladiator or something like that, but they keep sending him the lame swimmer and tennis player guys. On the plus side, he's got a lady viking, a black knight, a lizard man, and a computer geek. I told him to just break down and buy the one he wants. He said it costs a lot more if you do it that way and then he told me it's kind of fun not knowing what you're going to get every month. I suppose he's right.

The Lego figures are separate from the other stuff. You just get the figure, nothing else. I think they’re meant to be collectables. Of course they’re Legos , so you have to put them together too. They usually come in a couple of pieces, with a base.
