Barack Obama Travels by Forklift

Slate has a list of tongue-in-cheek ‘rumors’ about Barack Obama up right now. Some of the highlights include:

  •  Barack Obama wears a FLAG PIN at all times. Even in the shower.
  • There's only one artist on Barack Obama's iPod: FRANCIS SCOTT KEY.
  • Barack Obama's skin is the color of AMERICAN SOIL.
  • Barack Obama's new airplane includes a conference room, a kitchen, and a MEGACHURCH.
  • [Barack Obama] travels mostly by FORKLIFT.

This reminds me of a number of other websites I’ve run across recently, of which my favorite is Barack Obama is Your New Bicycle (did you know that Barack Obama folded my laundry? He’s such a nice guy).
