Fox News: President Obama Blatantly Breathed British Air
Fox News

In blatant contempt of oxygen of his homeland, U.S. President Barack Obama consumed approximately twelve to fifteen breaths per minute of British air during the joint afternoon press conference with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. This marked the first time ever that an American president has refused to carry a portable supply of U.S. oxygen while on a foreign trip.

After individual statements by both leaders, President Obama took several questions by a shocked and flabbergasted international press corps who asked the American leader why he chose to break from tradition and breath non-American air.

President Obama, obviously flustered by the blazing line of questioning, initially refused to answer those questions and instead spoke of his intentions to weaken American leverage against the international financial infrastructure while meeting with other G20 leaders.

However, he was pressed by three consecutive queries from U.S. reporters on his new found disdain for American air and finally admitted in a moment of contrition that his change of protocol was made as an effort to show deference to the British monarch, Queen Elizabeth II.

Later, while meeting with the Queen, President Obama presented the British head of state with an Apple iPod Nano, which was unfortunately uncharged.

Unnamed sources informed Fox News that the Queen was visibly perturbed at the inexperienced U.S. President's apparent lack of decorum.
