Friday Filet: Black History Month, or Blackened Catfishtory Month?

Debate rages over the utility of Black History Month now that the president and attorney general are differently colored. MTP takes a historical look at those who made this possible. We report, you decide.

Booker T. Washington, or Booker T-Bone Washington?


W.E.B. Du Bois, or W.E.B. au Jus?

Martin Luther King Jr., or Martin Luther King Whopper Jr.?
(MTP credits MPM for this gem)

Prez Day Props: George Washington, or Geef Wellington?

Legend has it that a patriotic chef renamed this traditionally French meat pocket after the eponymous Duke. Well, you know what we took, England? I think you do, and it sure as Elkhart, Indiana wasn't the metric system. At least we're still friends with benefits.

Now for the inverse happy ending--

Wednesday Waffle: Barack Obama, or Turok the Dinosaur Hunter Obama?

Look, it's not that MTP doesn't appreciate everything. It's just... ethics reform... maybe you bit off more than you can chew. How about this--you tell David Plouffe to quit with the emails, and all MTP will do is send you to bed without any supper. You've got some scary monsters to tag and bag, after all.

Monday Mitzvah: Rahm Emanuel, or Rahmschnitzel Emanuel?

A Republican to head Commerce?
These are powerful strokes from a chief of staff.
