Obama Urged to Resign Over Beyoncé Scandal

Posted by Andy Borowitz


WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) – A rising chorus of congressional Republicans are calling on President Obama to acknowledge that the pop singer Beyoncé lip-synched during his inaugural festivities on Monday and resign from office, effective immediately.

“By lip-synching the national anthem, Beyoncé has cast a dark cloud over the President’s second term,” said Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky). “The only way President Obama can remove that cloud is by resigning from office at once.”


While many in the media have blamed Beyoncé for the lip-synching controversy, Mr. Paul said, “We must remember that this happened on President Obama’s watch.”

Mr. Paul said that the White House’s refusal to comment on the Beyoncé crisis “only serves the argument that this President has something to hide.”

“If Beyoncé lip-synched the national anthem, how do we know President Obama didn’t lip-sync his oath of office?” he said. “If that’s the case, he’s not legally President. But just to be on the safe side, he should resign anyway.”

Mr. Paul also blasted Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for her testimony on Benghazi before the Senate today: “Her tactic of answering each and every question we asked her didn’t fool anyone.”

Satire should be at least partly funny.

Indeed. I'm not seeing the humor in this Borowitz guy's schtick, though I understand why it attracks certain numbnuts.

Onion articles, on the other hand, can be hilarious.

A person with 1/3 of his brain function might post this and think it's funny?

But OT's neighbors say he only has 1/4. Scratch that.............

You folks must not have listened to or watched any news today-- as that was the most important news story of the day- Did Beyoncé lip sync-- and if so is that legal? :roll:
Even interviewing politicians...

I'm sure if you watch Jon Stewart on the Dailey Show he will be playing back the tapes of Judge Napolitano giving his judicial opinion on whether lip syncing was kosher- or should it be considered a cover up... :wink:

And you missed the biggest revelation of all- Whitney Houston didn't sing at the Super Bowl- it was lip synced too....... :shock: :cry2: "The Sky will surely Fall" :p :lol: :lol: :lol:

I know one thing. You blindly support a President who is more than willing to supply arms and aircraft to Muslim countries, yet same President wants to see a ban on weapons owned by private citizens in his own country (gun control). Case in point today: F16's going to Egypt, whose President is clearly a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Be proud, old man...be proud. :roll:

There was a time just a few years ago when professional ethics didn't allow lip synching and a singer's career was automatically ruined when caught.

But today in the "Obama" & "Auto Tune" age, not so much.

Sadly, we're regressing ethically, morally, & spiritually.

I'm waiting for the day that some singer, musician, etc. will put on a "Live" concert with a "Stand-In Look-alike", and not attend their own concert.
