Did You Know...

Today is President Obama’s 51st birthday, and he’s having a “green” celebration (as a matter of fact, I think he’s lining up a putt on the 14th green as we speak). Meanwhile, the RNC sent the DNC a cake to celebrate the occasion:

The cake read “you didn’t bake this” over a picture of President Obama. Text written in icing reads, “Happy birthday, Mr. President.” The cake marks the occasion of the president’s birthday, which is Saturday, with a play on the “you didn’t build that” controversy.

Looks good:

The DNC sent it back (Obama’s already got a lot on his plate), along with a note which, coming from the party that helped stick everybody with this, was ironic:

“This is typical of Mitt Romney’s approach to the middle class,” DNC spokeswoman Melanie Roussell told The Hill. “He wants to ‘Let them eat cake!’ while robbing them blind. We sent the cake back to the RNC, along with a copy of the Tax Center’s report on Mitt Romney’s tax plan.”

A little while ago I got an email from Michelle Obama along with a link in order to “sign Barack’s birthday card.” There are four templates of cards from which you can choose to sign: MasterCard, Visa, American Express or Discover.

The GOP is celebrating Obama’s birthday with their own line of cards.
