WASHINGTON, D.C. — After declarations that his middle name, personal history, close business associates, friends and neighbors, life-long spiritual mentors, and now even his wife are all “off-limits” when discussing the merits of his candidacy, U.S. Senator and Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama today announced that, in fact, his whole campaign, the fact that he is running for President, and his entire legislative career are now officially banned topics in both the media and Republican circles.

“I think I’ve made it clear that my candidacy is about Hope and Change and Faith,” declared Senator Obama in a press conference Monday, “and it’s just unfair for the Republican Hate Machine to smear that message with irrelevant facts about my voting record, my stand on the issues, or my complete lack of legislative accomplishment.”

When asked for further comment about the chilling effect this might have on free speech during a vital political contest, an Obama spokesman who asked not to be named because his name was irrelevant to Obama’s campaign said “Obama’s non-record speaks for itself, so why should other people speak for it? That would be putting words into Obama’s record’s mouth.” When pressed for more details, the unidentified spokesman immediately fell into a trance, chanting “hopechangefaithobaaaaaamaaaaa” repeatedly while standing in a Zen-like meditative pose.

You could see the smug self-satisfaction on Chris Matthew’s face. That was almost as achingly obnoxious as that Bushie stooge.

If these goofs were asked to explain what they were actually saying 8 years ago we would have saved ourselves a lot of grief.

Maybe if Matthews talked like that to other right wing lunatics he has on his show, we’d be a bit better off today. In my experience, he’s like a giddy schoolboy every time he has Ann Coulter on.
