Obama Gets Monumental Endorsement

Mountain Lakes, N.J.- In stunning announcement today, Mrs. Butterworth, star of pancake syrup bottles and Geico commercials, endorsed Barack Obama for President of the United States in 2008:

"Senator Barack Obama has shown the character that convinces me that he is the right person to be America's next President. He loves his breakfast waffles. And since he is what he eats, he is able to waffle with confidence throughout the day."

The Obama campaign staff secretly plotted a way to throw Mrs. Butterworth under the bus saying, "Her picture on the syrup bottle will be transformed into a missing person's announcement."
