They got the other guys name wrong too...I think it should have read "Il. Gov. Charles Bronson, fresh from filming 'Death Wish 6:Windy City Vigilate', met with President Burka Abeam today, while still in his black spandex night combat suit...."
And when I called Bush a motherEffer it was merely my voice recognition software at fault.
You gotta admit, it is kinda funny.
it's true. He was born Burka Abeam but changed it to Barack Obama to make it more mainstream.
LOL!
not true
In this June 20, 2005 file photo, Gov. Rod Blagojevich, D-Ill., speaks as Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., listens during a news conference in St. Louis. Federal authorities arrested Blagojevich Tuesday Dec. 9, 2008 on charges that he brazenly conspired to sell or trade the U.S. Senate seat left vacant by President-elect Barack Obama to the highest bidder.

OK, I just went to the Daily News website, found the article and copy/paste it here.
Definitely a fake.
Smart work!
It looks like they haven't trained their voice recognition software to write Barack Obama yet. Not really that big of a mystery, but apparently there are no editors left in the world.
Somehow I don't think it was someone hitting "Change All" in the spell checker considering "Blagojevich" made it through.
SO WHAT !!!! WHO CARES !!!! WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE !!!!
One way or another it just shows someone's stupidity.
photoshop anyone?
Where is this newspaper? You can't tell from the picture, and there is no text.
Whoever does the closed captioning while I'm on the treadmill also works for this newspaper.
A Little Poem Regarding Computer Spell Checkers...
Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
nice.
We have to stop outsourcing every job overseas.....
hilarious!
Blame the editor that should have caught this. I don't think it was deliberate -- just poor attention to detail on the part of the author and editor.
