In Caped Controversy blog posts I will pit participants from controversial or media hyped events against each other and declare a winner.( Email suggested match-ups here: capedtirader@gmail.com)
Participants: HANDICAP MATCH!!
President Obama vs a House Fly and Peta
Hype: In what 'major' news outlets are deeming 'news worthy' President Obama got into a fight with a housefly during a CNBC interview.
The Match: In the middle of his interview, The Barack layed the smackdown delivering a devastating Rick Flair-esque chop to Super Housefly Snuka putting it out of commission. The match was all but over when The Barack exclaimed "That was pretty impressive, wasn't it? I got the sucker." But then PETA came off the top ropes with a plea for more compassion to flies and sent him a Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher.
The Result: To be determined. In a one-on-one, The Barack could take the Super Housefly with ease. He may even be able to defeat PETA if he sticks to his Barack Bottom-line, but if he placates PETAs hypersensitive nonsense and apologizes (or is featured using the bug catcher), he forfeits and the win goes to the terrible tag-team.
UPDATE (6/19/2009): Since posting this, The Barack has expressed sorrow for giving the 'President's Elbow' to the Superfly and has therefore LOST the match. PETA and the fly win in a devastating blow against logical thought.
HA! I'm all about the animal rights (lifelong vegetarian and pet owner, volunteer at koala rescue shelter, etc...) but even I think this is going a bit too far. I say give the match to Barack: he's obviously got Mr. Miyagi-style moves enough to swat a fly in mid-air, and it's not like flies are an endangered species or anything. Plus, PETA obviously made a shot below the belt on this one (A fly? Seriously?) Love your Caped Controversies! More please!

Wow... I think PETA is going a bit far with this one, but hey, Barack got a bug catcher out of it, so...he wins? I'd swat at a fly, too!

ReplyDelete-teacup girl- sounds like you do a lot for animals. I have some fundamental issues with the way PETA runs its org.
ReplyDeleteLila- Unfortunately, I view acceptance of the bug catcher as an admission of wrong doing.
FINAL RESULT: Since posting this, The Barack has expressed sorrow for giving the 'President's Elbow' to the Superfly and has therefore lost the match. PETA and the fly win in a devastating blow against logical thought
dude, I meant to comment on this a while ago. Being that I am actually a wrestling fan and a fan of comedy, this post was a win-win for me. Sorry for admitting that I am a wrestling fan, haha. But I tagged you in my latest blog, so hopefully I will see another awesome post on here
