“Presidential Parody” or “O-Bomb-a”


A Barack Obama impersonator performing a parody speech at the Republican Leadership Conference was stopped mid-performance over jokes poking fun at GOP presidential hopefuls.  Some Republicans had been unprepared because they had never heard comedy before.

Some speculate that jokes about Obama’s biracial heritage were seen as going too far, though the comedian himself is also biracial.  That alone, however, made him seem too liberal.

Ironically, it was the first time the Republican leaders have ever taken any ‘Barack Obama’ seriously.
