Poll: One out of Five Americans Do Not Believe Obama Exists

‘Existers’ Movement Gathers Steam

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) – In what might be the most serious challenge to Barack Obama’s legitimacy as President, a new poll shows that one out of five Americans are not convinced that Mr. Obama exists.

The poll, conducted by the University of Minnesota’s Opinion Research Institute, reveals that 23 percent of those surveyed “strongly agreed” with the statement, “I believe that Barack Obama’s birth was faked, just like the moon landing.”


The poll results coincide with the recent rise of the so-called “Exister” movement, a group who believes that Mr. Obama is an optical illusion created by the Democratic Party to raise taxes and bail out banks.


“The Birthers say that Obama’s lack of a birth certificate means he was born in Kenya,” says Jerrilene Rance, a leading Exister. “We believe it’s proof that he was never born.”


Ms. Rance says that while President George W. Bush was criticized for disappearing every August, “Obama is never there to begin with.”


Appearing Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) made comments about Mr. Obama’s existence that only stoked the controversy.


“I’ve spoken to him face-to-face, and I take him at his word that he exists,” he said. “Unless of course I was talking to a hologram.”


At the White House, spokesman Robert Gibbs brushed aside a question about the President’s existence, saying that Mr. Obama had “no comment.”


Exister leader Jerrilene Rance offered this response: "The reason he has no comment is that he has no mouth."


The Los Angeles Times says that Andy Borowitz has “one of the funniest Twitter feeds around.” Follow Andy on Twitter here.

Hi Peter,

Not sure how many here will get this joke, but I'm sure that the Good Folks out in Arizona would definitely get it right off.

Robot Caddy

A golfer walks into the clubhouse of the local country club. He tells the golf pro behind the counter that he wants to do 18 and he is going to need a caddy. The golf pro informs him that the country club is running a promotion and if he tries out one of their experimental robot caddies, he can golf for free. The golfer agrees and takes out the robot. While on the golf course the robot caddy tells the golfer the wind speed, distance, even how hard to hit which club. He has the best game of his life.

The next time the golfer goes to the country club, he tells the golf pro that he wants to do 18 holes and that he wants to get one of the new robot caddies.

The club pro then informs the golfer that unfortunately they don't have the robot caddies anymore. The golfer, all upset, tells him how great they were and asks him what happened.

The golf pro tells him that several of the members had complained that the sun would reflect of the robot's Silver metallic material and into their eyes.

Noticing all of the Mexicans working on the Grounds Maintenance crew, the golfer asks the Pro why they didn't just paint the robots Brown?

The Golf Pro said that they had already tried that, but then by the next day, 3 of them didn't show up for work and the other 3 robbed the pro shop.

Have A Happy Day,

Phil
