Probably one of the most ridiculous articles I have read in a long time.A must read if you like a good laugh as well as a :huh:
White House Responds To Death Star Petition: Obama “Does Not Support Blowing Up Planets”
I love the Internet so much. America’s netizens have demanded that President Obama consider building the legendary Star Wars Death Star and the White House has responded. Not surprising, they have thoughtfully rejected the request, claiming it would cost an estimated $850,000,000,000,000,000 and that “the Administration does not support blowing up planets”. The White House was forced to offer an official response to arguably the silliest question in American history since the petition garnered the requisite 25K signatures on the WeThePeople petitioning system.
After a groundswell of media attention cast a spotlight on the Administration’s delayed response to the petition, the good folks in the Executive Branch finally caughed up an equally silly blog post, “This Isn’t the Petition Response You’re Looking For.”
