PP)- Friday a White House press release was inadvertently distributed early to news organizations announcing that President Barack Hussein Obama had signed an executive order giving himself a pay raise to $500,000 annually.
ObamaWhite House staff failed to squash the story as the press release was intended to be distributed late in the day on Friday, after the deadline when most news agencies are able to publish breaking news stories.
Critics of the President’s executive order say the move makes Obama seem “politically tone deaf” because he gave himself a raise at a time when the federal government is arbitrarily cutting services and benefits due to sequestration.
“What a Dick,” said a pizza delivery boy at The Palookaville Post’s news room.
Presidential pay raises are usually approved by Congress, the last increase being authorized by both Congress and Bill Clinton in 1999 and went into effect in 2001.
The Presidential pay raise also now includes a $50,000 annual expense account, a $100,000 nontaxable travel account and $19,000 for entertainment.

I wish you would find the original source before putting this out, it is satire, not real, a skit in words, pookaville is a satire site, so is the onion, please try not to post satire unless you say it is,(its not the first time you have done it either) you build up hopes only to be quashed when the trace crap back to its origin as I did, maybe you should take the Hippocratic oath, "above all do no harm"
This is a 'satire' piece!
"What a dick" said the pizza delivery guy from Palookaville. It was funny. ROFL
You need to keep it real. Bashing Obama with fake news only hurts your credibility.
I'd like to give this fellow a raise with the pointed toe of my cowboy boot.

It was clear to me this is a joke. $19,000 would never cover his golf outings!
