UPDATE: Barack Obama’s half-bat half-brother, Obatma, is planning to meet with the Special Olympics committee on Monday to make peace over Obama’s bad joke.
Last night on The Tonight Show, President Obama discussed his poor bowling skills. In a passing comment, Obama said, “It was like Special Olympics or something.” Realizing his error, President Obama called Special Olympics Chairman Tim Shriver immediately following the taping to apologize.
However, Obama’s half-brother Obatma will be meeting with the committee on Monday to help smooth things over. Obatma recently revealed he used to volunteer in the African chapter, feasting on the surrounding mosquitoes so the athletes could compete in peace.
Will Obatma’s diplomatic past make things right?

WASHINGTON, DC – In a stunning response to the passing of Ricardo Montalban, Barack Obama has announced last-minute changes to his upcoming inauguration.
Obama revealed today that he would immediately scrap all Abraham Lincoln references at his inauguration and instead would deliver a new theme of “Fantasy Inauguration”. In adhering to this theme, Obama will be clad for all inaugural festivities in the white-tie popularized by Montalban in his role as Mr. Roarke on the long-running television series. Obama also made the shocking announcement that his half-man half-bat half-brother Obatma would attend the inauguration and serve as his Tattoo.
Obama’s official announcement paid tribute to Montalban and his legacy. The announcement also took many by surprise in Washington.
Obama explained, “Abraham Lincoln was a great man, but Ricardo Montalban and the work he did on Fantasy Island holds far greater personal meaning to me. The opening scenes of the show were even filmed in my childhood state of Hawaii.”
He continued, “America is a place, like Fantasy Island, where your dreams can come true. Sure, there is a price for making those dreams happen. That price is what we call ‘taxes’. My job as President, much like Mr. Roarke’s job on ‘Fantasy Island’, is making sure you get your money’s worth in making your dreams happen. Think of me as the new Mr. Roarke. The man who is going to make your dreams come true. This is truly America’s Fantasy Inauguration”.
Asked whether there would be a role for Ken Berry in the inauguration, Obama refused to speculate.
Obatma, Obama’s half-brother, was unavailable for comment.
He has hurt many families in America. He needs to say he is sorry in the public, not to an organization.
In addition, someone who claims to have experienced prejudice and stereotypes throughout life, and has written about them in great detail,
should be more sensitive and refined from life's lessons.
Furthermore, Obama claimed he was going to have the world think 'highly' of America again. Will this joke help?
For someone who spoke of equality as a creed. Does this joke match that philosophy?
For someone that said he would stand for all people. Does this stand up for those that participate in the special
Olympics?
The fact is Obama claimed a higher standard. To much is given, much is required.
Obama has just showed us that 'yes we can' destroy what a campaign stands for with a single joke.
During the campaign for the White House in 2008, the media criticized Palin for being ‘common,’ 'not-polished,' 'not-compassionate' and ‘not presidential.’ However, compare Sarah Palins attitude in this video created three weeks ago for the Special Olympics in Boise, Idaho.
You decide the more ‘presidential’ among them:

hopefully, Obatma will be able to come to the rescue on this one
You know what if i didn't know better its almost as if America elected a racist bigot for president.
The next thing you know there will be reports that he thinks his white grandmother is a typical white racist.
Or that he has been attending a hate church.
Wow. That is one great post. De-plane! De plane! De plane!
Obatma Mops Up after Obama agains.
