I saw this picture and thought “Oh the Magical Imaginary Beings Convention was TODAY?” Darn it. I missed it again. But at least this pic was taken of Barack Obama and the Easter Bunny. It got me thinking that the similarities between the two are pretty remarkable. Here’s the top 7:
1) It’s difficult to trace the origins of both Obama and the Easter Bunny.
2) Both exist only in the minds of the immature.
3) Both pull things from out their @$$ and expect you to freak out and be thankful.
4) Both leave gifts for people regardless of merit. No naughty list. Nothing. Whoever wants treats gets treats.
5) Hollywood is enamored of both.
6) Both claim a connection to Christianity but there’s little evidence of how.
7) Both like to play on green pastures around holes.
If you’ve got more similarities please add them in the combox.

When I joined the Army I had to produce my long form birth certificate. When Obama was sworn in as Commander in Chief he didn't.
When I registered my wife and children in DEERS (military health care system) I had to show their long form birth certificates. I don't recall anybody ever spending more than $2 million to prevent it. I don't recall any executive order exempting us from having to produce it. And strangely enough, we are required to do it by a Commander in Chief who refuses to do the same.
As was stated above, this is at the very least a cynical (and wasteful) act.

Both lure you with delicious looking treats only to leave you with a stomachache.
