Obama To End War If Elected

According to the AP:

A woman's tearful plea to Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama to end the Iraq war momentarily caught him off guard Friday at a New Hampshire town hall meeting.

The Illinois senator vowed to end the conflict if elected.

Asked how he would end the war, Obama replied, "By the power of Grayskull!"

He then pulled out a sword, pointed it upwards with outstretched arms and said, Thunder! Thunder! Thunder! Thundercats! HOOOOOOOOO!"

Afterwards, the uncomfortable stunned silence was broken by town hall attendee Alex Freeman, asking, "What the hell was that?" It was unclear if Freeman was confused by Obama's theatrics or by the fact that the presidential candidate mixed together two very different cartoons.

Without answering, Obama dropped his sword, pulled a can of spinach from his inner coat pocket and proceeded to try and squeeze it open with his right hand.

Through strenuous grunts, Obama said, "I make a solemn pledge to you now, that as president, I will get Duke, Lady J, Snake Eyes, and the rest of our military out of this war quickly."
