Obama Leading McCain In Football, Billiards Polls












WASHINGTON (CAP) - With a little over a month to go before the general election, most national polls now give Democrat Barak Obama a slight edge over Republican counterpart John McCain. More troubling for McCain, however, are a series of popularity and likeability (PAL) polls, which show Barak Obama gaining ground on the all-important have-a-beer-with front.

"You had Obama barely edging McCain in the Who Would You Rather Watch a Football Game With poll, the Who Would You Rather Shoot Pool With poll, and the increasingly important Who Would You Rather Watch Dancing With The Stars With poll," said independent political analyst Hugh Smithers.

Fed Buys Up Baltic Ave, Marvin Gardens & Boardwalk













WASHINGTON (CAP) - The upheaval of the U.S. financial markets continued today as the Fed announced that the Federal Reserve Board will purchase ailing properties Baltic Ave, Marvin Gardens and Boardwalk for an unprecedented $3,650. This gives the federal government a controlling stake in strategic positions around the board.

"We are working closely with the other players to enhance the stability and orderliness of these key properties and minimize the disruption to the Monopoly economy," said Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. "With the government's help, everyone will pass Go and will collect $200."

ELVIS RIDES THE BUS


Passengers on the 62 line witnessed a rare treat when “The King” Elvis Presley boarded the bus on Friday evening. Elvis was in town for a private function, however he and his band were gracious enough to perform the song, “Burning Love” while riding to their destination. Fortunately, surveillance cameras on the bus were able to record the entire performance.

When asked why a man of his stardom would ride public transportation, Elvis replied, “Whenever I'm in Portland, I always ride TriMet. I've always had a pleasant experience and I particularly enjoy the 62 line because the drivers are so courteous and knowledgeable. I can leave my limo at Graceland.”

Elvis signed autographs and posed for photographs before leaving and promised to be back again.

Al Qaeda Releases Fall/Winter Schedule











KABUL (CAP) - The upcoming season of attacks and threats by the world's largest terrorist organization promises to pack more wallop and suspense than previous years, according to officials for al Qaeda's scheduling division. The new season kicks off with a busy marketplace bombing next Thursday evening.

"I've seen the schedule, and that premiere is nothing compared to what they have planned for later in the season," said CAP News Entertainment Editor Greta Von Cistern. "But when you're up against the likes of Grey's Anatomy and CSI, you have little choice but to come out with both guns blazing."

Dems Get Early Start On Blame For Obama Loss













WASHINGTON (CAP) - The Democratic Party has gotten an early jump on determining who to blame for losing the upcoming presidential election, according to several top Democratic analysts.

"Typically the Democrats don't start assigning blame until several weeks before they lose the election - a month, tops," said Bob Monks, a senior analyst at New School Communications. "The fact that they're starting this early is reflective of the party's new sense of determination, albeit a losing sense."

Bush Personally Removes Every New Orleans Resident Himself














EW ORLEANS (CAP) - In an apparent attempt to shore up his fading legacy during his last few months in office, President Bush announced that he and his advisors are personally driving thousands of New Orleans residents fleeing Hurricane Gustav to his ranch in Crawford, Tex. on a fleet of custom-fitted "Bushmobusses."

"During Hurricane Katrina, a lot of people were upset, and rightfully so, when we let all those people drown, which in retrorespect was a bad idea," said Bush from behind the wheel of the lead Bushmobus, the W1. "In our defense, we did give out a heck of a lotta trailers. Except they were filled with formadleyhide, which I'm told can cause cancer.
