Joke leaves 'em gasping : Local News : The Rocky Mountain News

Joke leaves 'em gasping : Local News : The Rocky Mountain News: "A Greeley businessman apologized Wednesday after a joke about Illinois Sen. Barack Obama fell flat during the National Western Stock Show's annual Citizen of the West banquet.
William R. Farr was pretending to read telegrams congratulating this year's award recipient, University of Colorado President Hank Brown, when he pulled out a piece of paper and said, 'I have a telegram from the White House.'
Then he added, 'They're going to have to change the name of that building if Obama's elected.'"
