President Obama has proven a difficult target for comedians and satirists, but the comedy team Kasper Hauser has managed to brilliantly skewer our seemingly parody-proof president in their irreverent new book, "Obama's BlackBerry."
Satirizing the emails and text messages of our first BlackBerry-toting president, the book features hilarious imagined interchanges between Obama and his wife and daughters, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, and the likes of Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity.
It's the funniest Obama humor book to date, and is well worth a read for political humor enthusiasts and Obamaphiles.
