Cash-rich Obama Buys Yahoo

Flush with cash after a deluge of online donations, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) stunned the business world today by outbidding Microsoft for the Internet giant Yahoo.

The purchase of Yahoo is believed to be the largest acquisition of a multibillion-dollar company ever by a Democratic presidential candidate, industry experts said.

3. I purposely leave the "sarcasm" out
The easiest way to tell real Dems and Trolls is that RWers don't get things like shame, sarcasm or irony. :)

Plus, I like to see it when people go off on the subject line without reading the rest. :)

4. that last line
"Elsewhere, President Bush said that the economy was not in a recession, leading economists to conclude that the economy was in a recession."

That really made me laugh! :)

5. I can't believe it either. That's because it's satire.

7. that you felt the need to point it out
is interesting in and of itself. You might have to give evidence of your librul credentials. Possibly after waterboarding... :)
