On February 14, 2007, three hundred seventy-one women and three men experienced spontaneous orgasms while watching Barack Obama speak in public. Five of the women claimed to have become pregnant in the experience. They were shown to be mistaken. Researchers, watching the video later, experienced five more orgasms.

Obama can squeeze a diamond in his hand to make a lump of coal.

Barack Obama was the last person seen with Natalie Holloway, Anna Nicole Smith, Nicole Simpson, and Bonnie Bakley Blake.  
The first call made by Heath Ledger’s masseuse was to Mary Kate Olsen. The second was to Barack Obama. Her message, captured on tape, was simply “It is done, Great One- the remaining 72 points on the SDMB Celebrity Death Poll are thine, but beware the Super Dopers who may redistribute them.”

Barack Obama was briefly on his school’s jai alai team with a non regulation equipment- the [year book pic](http://members.aol.com/eawmovies/eawmovies/images/sw1-DarthMaul.jpg).

Barack Obama took a tour of the Anne Frank house in Amsterdam and repeatedly said “How could it take those nincompoops so damned long to _find_ her! I mean it’s a 4 story ‘attic’ in the middle of town, did they think it was a phone booth! It’s been 60 years and I can still smell the Jew from three blocks down teh street!”

Barack Obama played Helen Keller in his madrassah’s production of _The Miracle Worker_. Instead of “Wah-wah” his line at the end of the play was “Bring me the Chosen One… I _WILL_ KILL HIM!”

Barack Obama begins every day by doing calisthenics and watching the 1980 Kristy McNichol/Tatum O’Neal movie [Little Darlings](http://imdb.com/title/tt0081060/).

Barack and Michelle Obama go by another name: TomnDebb.  
ETA: This should really have its own web page ala [Chuck Norris Facts](http://www.chucknorrisfacts.com/). I’d love Obama to rank them.

Barack Obama is a Scientologist.

He likes wearing his wife’s panties-but only because he likes the way they feel.

He is really a Sith Lord, and plans to overthrow the Senate and declare himself Emperor.

Barack Obama will use his interpretation of Lewis Carroll’s _Jabberwocky_ to conduct foreign policy.

Every time Obama wins a primary or caucus, an angel gets his wings – then Obama rips them off.

Nobody ever whispers, talks on a cellphone or texts in a movie theaters where Barack in is attendance.

In _Stand By Your Man_, Tammy Wynette was talking about B.O., she just didn’t know it.

Obama invented Snausages, the Ipod and Kinoki Pads.

Since imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, he was just flattering all those guys who made previous speeches using the same words.

He’s not a plagiarist; he’s an _impressionist_.

He has a prehensile tail, which he once used to bitch-slap Senator Trent Lott

After falling one too many times for the old “Did you know ‘gullible’ isn’t in the dictionary” gag, he successfully lobbied Merriam-Webster to actually remove the word.

He has an irrational fear of Twnikies.

He laughs raucously at inappropriate moments when watching ‘Brian’s Song.’

He secretly digs it when Rush calls him ‘Halfrican-American.’

I have it on good authority that Barack Obama is a card-carying KKK member. Rumor has it he was even considered for a leadership position in his local group, but was found to be “too radical.”

He consumes his weight in insects each day.

He shot a man in Reno, but did not even stick around to watch him die.

For MTV’s “Punked–DC Special,” he convinced Sen. George Allen that ‘maccaca’ is the new cool word for ‘guy with a video camera.’

Obama reads _War and Peace_ once a week.

Mark Felt lied-Obama was Deep Throat.

He was on the grassy knoll.

He plans to change the national anthem to Neil Diamond’s “America”

He and Bill Clinton are secret lovers. Every Friday night, they have orgies with Huckabee and Sean Hannity.

He voted for Kodos.

He takes bubble baths while listening to Kenny G and sipping Fresca!

Obama doesn’t know the difference between your and you’re, nor between they’re, there, and their!

As a young lad, he was known to run with scissors!

but … worst of all …

Obama has engaged in … no, no it’s too unspeakable. Just watch out for those hairy palms!

Barack Obama bathes in the blood of Serbian virgins to keep his skin soft. When that’s not available he switches to Neutrogena.

Barack Obama is a Civil War reenactor; his character is Belle Boyd.

Barack Obama saves his urine in twice rinsed Ragu spaghetti sauce jars.

Barack Obama voted 902,403 times for Sanjaya, always using senate phones paid for by your tax dollars.
