Some news stories are so perfect that they need no comic embellishment whatsoever. And such was the case this past weekend when Barack Obama assembled a group of allegedly popular rappers (including Nicki Minaj, Busta Rhymes, J. Cole, Wale, DJ Khaled, and others we couldn’t possibly pick out of a police line-up) to help with his “Brother’s Keeper” initiative to encourage young black men to avoid incarceration for undocumented acts of wealth redistribution.
Unfortunately, the president had barely finished speaking when rapper Rick Ross’s court-ordered ankle bracelet went off. It seems that the man selected by Mr. Obama to serve as an exemplary racial role model is required to wear the device until his trial date for aggravated assault and battery, pistol-whipping, and kidnapping. Tragically, Ross is not facing additional charges for performing rap in public – another sad reminder of the importance of quickly appointing a true conservative to the Supreme Court.

As with Obama, I suspect they have a problem determining which bathhouse bathroom to use.
