Barack Obama Now Committing Crimes Of Plagiarism Against Himself And Your Wonkette
Oh noez, Barack Obama is committing crimes against literature and comedy and blogging, apparently, because he is self-plagiarizing! Let's see, yadda yadda yadda, blah blah blah:
When he began working the room and talking to patrons, he came across a table of 10, where he was told that Andre Wupperman, who will turn seven next week, was born in Hawaii, reports Politico.
That was his cue. Obama smiled, and flashed the shaka sign, and then asked, “You were born in Hawaii? You have a birth certificate?”
Hmmm, where have we heard that joke before?
Oh right, here, when we exclusively reported that he said the same thing to one "Donna Schoenkopf," whoever that might be.
On his way out, he stopped to shake hands with nice lady Donna Schoenkopf, who had apparently scammed her way in by pretending to be a reporter. “I was born in the same hospital as you, Kapiolani Hospital,” she gushed, at which he stopped and turned back. “Do you have a birth certificate?” he asked her, because now he is apparently hilarious as well. She reports exclusively to Wonkette that she did not have an awesome witty comeback, but just said, “Yeah.”
And now The New Yorker has to fire Barack Obama, it is so very sad, the end.

You can't exactly roll video in the middle of a debate. Lay the groundwork early that he's not truthful, though, and you can roll out a "there he goes again" mid-debate when he tells more whoppers.
