Obama Cuts Ties With Controversial Postman
I knew there was more dirt to come...
Obama Cuts Ties With Controversial Postman In what many are calling a concerted effort to purge his proverbial closet of all potentially harmful skeletons, presumed Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has severed all ties with his radical letter carrier, Chuck Patterson. This move comes on the heels of Obama’s decision to leave the controversial Trinity United Church of Chicago after he spent much time defending former pastors Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Rev. Michael Pfleger. “Well, well, well…what a coincidence that Senator Obama received his mail from a man who, by all accounts, used his federal postal route to deliver a virulent brand of radicalism,” said Republican spokesman Darren Scoresby. “Chuck Patterson is not only a racist, American-hating extremist, from what I have heard, he is also a sub-par mailman who can’t tell bulk male from a she-male.” Some of Patterson’s more controversial actions include: Referring to plain white business envelopes as “third-class cracker wrappers”, when delivering mail to caucasian households. Walking his route with his pit bull “Mail Dawg” wearing nothing but a Kanye West half-shirt and a pair of Crocs instead of his government-issued uniform. Circulating to fellow postal workers a revised version of the postal creed (”Neither rain nor snow…”) that read, “If it’s raining, snowing or even just a bit overcast, this courier is keeping his black ass in his climate-controlled mail jeep, thank you very much.” Beating an old woman’s barking toy poodle to death with the Neiman Marcus fall catalog. Obama distanced himself from Patterson’s actions, but was quick to note “I can no more denounce my letter carrier than I can my gardener, my waitstaff, or my chauffer.” An Obama official went on to say that the senator only occasionally receives mail at home. “This is just getting plain old silly now,” said Obama campaign spokesman Walter Simms. “Senator Obama has had his name taken off of all of the junk mailing lists, and he has a PO Box that he uses frequently; that means that weeks or months may go by where his letter carrier does not even come to the house. All of this posturing is a desperate move by the Clinton campaign to keep a primary going that by all rights was over a long time ago.” Obama’s Democratic primary opponent Hillary Clinton was quick to seize on the controversy as yet another valid reason for her to stay in the race noting that “postal carriers have been known to snap and shoot people they feel have wronged them.” Obama Cuts Ties With Controversial Postman » The Nose On Your Face
