Opus 2014-14: The Obama $25.00 Bill

One of my Obama loving students was excited about the new Barak Obama $25.00 bill she had seen.  It looked just like the new $100 bills with the broad stripe down the front.  I tried to point out that people had printed $3.00 bills with Bill Clinton’s picture on it.  It is available from sights that sell phoney money as novelty items.  She did not get the point.  She seemed to think that a phoney bill was a compliment.

Ignorant people have a very limited understanding of some types of humor.

It turns the joke is on me.  The idea does not belong to Obama mockers alone.  Some guy running for congress is making it an issue, or wanting it issued.  The big problem is that there seems to be a law saying that living people cannot be on money.  But since when has the law stopped Progressives.

I think the $25 instead of $3.00 accounts for inflation.

  1. Perhaps a 3 cent piece minted from fools gold, with a Latin inscription that translates to "Here's your change"

    1. When I get a response like this I wish I had a million readers because it is worth being passed on. Good job.

      Grace and peace.

    2. And now that you have my juices flowing I might add that pig Latin would be even better.

      Grace and peace.
