The Onion: 2008 Tax Records Reveal Sasha Obama Made $136 in Allowance Money

POSTED BY: Dennis DiClaudio

The tax problems of yet another member of President Obama's close circle seem to have come to light

Sasha, who has been under fire from congressional leaders since her 2008 tax records were made public earlier this month, arrived at the Capitol to address accusations that she received dozens of federal dollars for completing the most basic of household chores.

"Ms. Obama, I've examined your records and what I've found sickens me," said ranking committee member Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), addressing the 7-year-old as she shifted nervously in her chair. "How could you, during this time of economic turmoil—during this time of economic despair—accept nearly 50 cents for making your bed?" Added Grassley, "Have you no shame at all?"…

Still reeling from the controversy of having three of his Cabinet nominees investigated for owing back taxes, President Barack Obama attempted to distance himself from this latest situation. "I'm sorry, but I barely know this woman," Obama said during his testimony before the committee. "Apart from a few conversations we've had in the past eight years, I'd say she's a complete stranger."

From what I understand, the two had very few meaningful conversations for the first couple years of their acquaintanceship. But I think the last few years have been an entirely different matter.
