Since it’s way to depressing to think about everything that’s actually happened during President Barack Obama’s first 100 days, we’re choosing to commemorate the occasion by enjoying The Onion‘s humorous recap.
And while we have no idea who all of the individual White House staffers are – it’s pretty funny stuff.
Here’s a few from their list …
DAY 97: Obama falls victim to the so-called “black presidents’ curse,” which holds that every African-American president will stub his toe trying to walk to the bathroom in the early morning hours of his 97th day in office.
DAY 90: Although he disagrees with many of his predecessor’s policies, President Obama has to admit Bush left behind a pretty sweet home entertainment system.
DAY 75: The massive G20 protests that cost a man his life and British taxpayers $10 million in security are revealed to be a guerrilla marketing campaign for Cadbury Eggs.
DAY 62: A sweaty, out-of-breath Joe Biden bursts into a Cabinet meeting to inform everyone that if a big guy named Ivan comes around looking for him, he “ain’t here.”
DAY 34: During a difficult moment of a televised address, President Obama debuts the evil-looking sock puppet that will speak on all unpopular matters from now on.
DAY 19: After a tense afternoon holed up in the Situation Room, President Obama finally locates that old pack of Lyndon Johnson’s Benson & Hedges.
Of course, they did fail to include what happened on “Day 70.”
We’re assuming that must have been when all the communism went down.
Hat-tip, Jay-Z.

Rather than label Obama a communist, you could come up with another title that less than 1 in 4 Americans call themselves: Republican.
Oh, by the way, TARP and the auto bailouts happened during the last Trotskyite administration. Comrade Cheney supported both.
