(2008-11-10) — After his first visit to the White House Monday to work on the transition process, President-elect Barack Obama attempted to link First Lady Laura Bush with “the failed policies of George W. Bush.”

“While she may want the American people to see her as an independent thinker, the fact is that she has supported George Bush every step of the way,” said Mr. Obama. “It’s like the two of them have become one.”

Obama transition team leader John Podesta later explained that Mr. Obama “didn’t let John McCain get away from the Bush legacy either. Whether it’s polite to say so or not, for nearly eight years of this administration Laura Bush has been in bed with this president.”

Mr. Obama also accused Barney, the president’s Scottish Terrier, of being “just a partisan lapdog, eating from the hand of George W. Bush, and following him obediently. When George W. Bush gives the command, Barney just rolls over.” At White House, Obama Links Laura to George W. Bush

I thought it was from The Onion at first, too but it's from another satire site.
