Have You Heard About the Bird?

President Obama announced another trillion dollar increase in spending today to raise public avian awareness.

The absence of public awareness concerning certain ornithological events has lead to the President of the United States to hold an urgent press conference to ascertain whether or not everyone had heard about the bird.

"Although it has generally been assumed that everybody knows about the bird," Obama said, "many Americans, sadly, have as yet not heard about the bird. However, every American has the right to know that the bird is a word."

President Obama went on to say that "Ba-ba-ba-Ooom-Mao-Mao-Ba-Ba-Oom-Ma-Ma-Mao," and he added that he would appeal to Congress for an additional trillion dollars worth of spending increases to ensure that future generations of Americans would indeed have increased avian awareness.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
