This is the latest: the Obamas are getting a divorce and the girls are going back to their real parents. The girls were just props because after all, Michele Obama is really a man so she couldn’t actually have children.
I’m embarrassed to admit that I heard this one from my own father.
- Obama is secretly gay (proof: college picture of him holding hands with some dude)
- Michelle is secretly a man (proof: Adam’s apple)
- The kids are adopted (proof: they don’t look like their parents)
I declined to ask where he got this stuff.
Your dad needs to see an eye doctor ASAP.
Malia looks just like her mother, and Sasha most resembles her paternal grandfather.
If only there were glasses that filtered out crazy and paranoid.
Even today, and ignoring the fact Obama ( like Hillary ) held the gate against same-sex marriage as long as possible until he was convinced there were serious votes to be had, wouldn’t having a secretly gay marriage in the White House be a pure gift to one’s opponents ?
All presidents, including Trump, get the ludicrous conspiracy treatment which in actuality would prevent one from running for fear of discovery, but the theorists rarely think these things through.
Opaque, in other words.
Douglas Adams had “Peril Sensitive Sunglasses” in his Hitchhiker’s Guide series. They were designed to help the wearer achieve a more relaxed attitude about danger. They turned totally opaque at the slightest suggestion of peril.
What would work better is a Babelfish that translated right-wing talk radio nutjobbery into factual information. Though as with the opaque glasses, this might simply be equivalent to earplugs.
