FREE AT LAST

Barack Obama’s Hero Half-Brother Released By Racist African Regime

My god my god, I am free at last.Kenyan freedom fighter George Hussein Obama, savagely arrested over the weekend for either possessing a single joint or owning all marijuana ever, and fighting the cops over it, has been released. All charges dropped! The Kenyan police now say it was all, heh heh, a misunderstanding.

Poor George was just swept up in some random slum police raid, and some other people caught up in this dragnet maybe possessed a joint! Or something, who knows.

For today, at least, Nairobi is safe from American air strikes.

    Marijuana is an illegal drug. Marijuana is an illegal drug. Marijuana is an illegal drug. Marijuana is an illegal drug. Remember?

    OK, everyone, show’s over, now go back to drinking until you are fall-down drunk and smoking like chimneys. Because alcohol and nicotine are our friends, unlike that demon Maryjane!

    How cool would it be if Barry issued a general amnesty for anybody who’s in prison just on pot charges?

    Very cool.

    And Peter Tosh’s prophecy finally comes true!

  7. thongthongthong says at 12:55 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    A famous US athlete, a famous Japanese athlete and the POTUS little bro all caught pot smoking on the same day, each in a different country. Conspiracy, anyone?

    When they told Barry about it, he said, “Let me make some calls.”

  12. Can’t really blame the people in this pic. Smoking weed is the only thing to do in Ambridge, PA.

    I get all my news from High Times.

  15. SayItWithWookies says at 1:10 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    Actually, George was busted for not having any weed. The cops were like “come on,” and he was all, “It’s dry right now, really,” and they dragged his ass to jail. Just a little overreaction from some jonesin’ cops.

    Kenya, where kind bud is illegal but genital mutilation is A-OK

  22. It’s good to be the brother twice removed of the king.

  23. Yaybuls:
    Actually, you’re right. They’ve been waiting for their economic recovery for 30 years, passing the time drinkin’, smokin’, and watching the Steelers and Penguins.

  29. This is not failure to have marijuana possession that we can believe in.

  30. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 1:50 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    All this means is that the cops had run out and were just busting some smokers so that they could rebuild their stash. Happens all the time. (And, as anyone knows, cops always have the best shit).

  31. Bronkers says at 1:56 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    Pic of the van looks a heckova lot like the matatus that are the most prevalent form of public transportation in Kenya, except that it should have an Obama sticker on the windshield. Passengers on roof - not so common, but not beyond the real of possibility.

    LawrenceOfTheDesert - the language would be Kiswahili, or in George’s case, the Luo dialect.

    Tuta onnana badaye. as we say in Kiswahili.

    i’m glad he’s getting something out of this whole having a brother who is president thing.

  35. Portugal (The Man) says at 2:27 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    Obama’s aid(e)s called the government of Kenya and told them to “Fix it!”.

  36. Jukesgrrl says at 3:31 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    Servo: I’d say you did go from bad to worse — unless “near Monroeville” happened to be Wilmerding.

    That’s what he gets for hanging out with Michael Phelps.

    Wilkins Township bordering Penn Hills. I guess I was lucky enough not to have my home covered with Westinghouse and Edgar Thompson grime. However, we did get a panoramic view of the industrial wasteland from atop Kennywood’s rides, along with lungs-full of sulphurous air.

    Bernhardt was wrong! They sent the carrier group to rescue George from Kenya!

    Free Mumia Obama!

  41. ColHeightsChic says at 5:43 pm, February 2nd, 2009

    In Kenya, it’s generally the ones who DON’T pay the cops bribes who end up getting arrested. So Barry’s brother must be super-duper honest, see?
