Fruit from the Blackberry bush
Thu, Jun 11, 2009 (midnight)
Proving he’s at least as much a regular guy as Joe the Plumber, President Obama told the Secret Service in January, “You can have my BlackBerry when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.” Essentially. And what kind of pop-culture machinators would we be if someone didn’t immediately publish a small gag book about what might appear on Obama’s BlackBerry? Comedy team Kasper Hauser jumped on it; it’s called Obama’s BlackBerry, and these excerpts tell you most of what you need to know:
“FROM: Arnold Schwarzenegger
TO: Barack Obama
SUBJECT: Let me go after Bin Laden alone
The Details
- Obama’s BlackBerry
- Kasper Hauser
- Little, Brown and Company, $14.
- Obama’s BlackBerry
Dear Mr. President,
Listen to me: With a parachute, some Red Bulls and a crossbow I could capture Bin Laden in 24 hours. I could even do it naked. I will grow my hair long for this …”
And:
“FROM: ACoulter7648@aol.com
TO: Barack Obama
SUBJECT: self-portrain from TGIFs!
