Summary:
From legendary comedian D.L. Hughley comes a bitingly funny send-up of the Obama years, as “informed” by the main element politics players on both sides of the aisle.
What do the Clintons, Republicans, fellow Democrats, and Obama’s own family members really think of President Barack Obama? Finally, the truth is revealed in this raucously funny “oral history” parody.
There is no more astute-and hilarious-critic of politics, entertainment, and race in the us than D. L. Hughley, famed comedian, radio star, and about Dark Man, White House: An Oral Background of the Obama Years original member of the “Kings of Comedy.” In the vein of Jon Stewart’s America: The Publication, Black Man, White House can be an acerbic and witty take on Obama’s two terms, looking at the president’s accomplishments and foibles through the thought eyes of these who saw background unfold.
Hughley draws upon satirical interviews with notorious public numbers of our day time: Mitt Romney (“What’s ‘poverty’? Is normally that some sort of rap jargon?”); Nancy Pelosi (“I play F**k/Marry/Get rid of, and there’s a lot more kills than fu**ks in Congress, trust me.”); Pole Blagojevich (“You can’t sell politics offices on eBay; I discovered that personally.”); Joe Biden (“I love wrestling.”); and other politicians, press pundits, and buffoons. It is sure to become probably the most irreverent-and possibly the many honest-look at American politics today.
