New trend: because Obama, that's why.

Change everyone can believe in, even white-supremacist d-bags.
We here at the Trends, Lifestyles and Presidential Irony Desk have discovered a new -- and somewhat disturbing -- trend as the nation prepares to inaugurate our 44th President of the United States. (In case you thought Barack Obama was President already, you can be forgiven. There seems to be a real effort to get him to take the job early. Can't imagine why.)
This new trend isn't easy to capsulize, but here goes: there are people using Obama's rhetoric about change and hope to justify acting like the same mouth-breathing nitwits they always were.
Like so many trends, this one started with Joe Lieberman, who bravely informed the nation it would be at risk if Obama were elected President, and then ran to the Big O for protection when Senate Democrats wanted payback.
Now ordinary citizens are getting into the act. (If by "ordinary," we mean "target audience for warning labels on appliances." The MENSA candidates who named their son "Adolf Hitler Campbell" were surprised when the world reacted with outrage. So they cited Obama in their own defense.
"There's a new president and he says it's time for a change; well, then it's time for a change," [Adolf's father] continued. "They need to accept a name. A name's a name..."
Yeah! You tell 'em, swastika-tattooed dad! Because that's what Obama meant.
(Fortunately, Adolf and his siblings -- named after a white supremacist group and Heinrich Himmler -- have been removed from these doorknobs by child welfare officials.)
But we can probably expect to see a lot more of this. In fact, it's started already. Obama was talking about Pepsi, wasn't he?
