......Sez Prez: “We're deeply sorry for the flap and have fired the agency.” Expressing confidence in the new cable series “We believe our young, hip audience will be open to FUTURBAMA” Futurbama is set to air this fall on ADULT SWIM, (now a mullet-free zone.)

***************************
In a press conference earlier today at Cartoon Network ( a cable based television channel) headquarters in New York, a network spokesperson revealed that the Barak Obama Presidential Campaign is part of an elaborate advertising stunt for a new cable TV series. The Network offers its apologies to the American People and News Media and anyone who might have been mislead by “Obama Campaign” ads, adding “Of course, all “Obama Campaign” contributions we received will be donated to charity.”
Adult Swim senior officials are quoted as saying: “It was meant to be a harmless publicity stunt to introduce the Adult Swim audience to a new animated series FUTURBAMA.”

Slated to air this fall, FUTURBAMA, is a take-off of the popular Matt Groening-David Cohen animated series FUTURAMA. The creators of FUTURBAMA say that indeed there is a BARAK OBAMA-like character, ROBOTOBAMA, in the series.

******************

FUTURBAMA follows exploits of a 21st century politician who, in a freakish accident, is quick frozen only to be re-animated a thousand years later in the future world of the year 3008 as ROBOTOBAMA.

ROBOTOBAMA is a lovable, articulate, and attractive half-robot, half-human, half-white, half-black character with the head of a reanimated 21st century politician from a small mid-western town, and the body of a 31st century Japanese-Chinese robot.

The plot-line of the first episode of FUTURBAMA has the 21st century politician being accidentally caught in a climatic accident of global warming induced sudden glaciation and quick frozen for a thousand years.

Reanimated in the 31st century with a robotic body and human head, Robotobama makes his way into the world of 31st century politics, eventually to become the presidential nominee of the GREENORSOMETHING party, formed to combat the 31st century worldwide crisis of Global Worming.

If elected Robotobama would become the first half-human, half-robot,

half-black, half-white, President of Earth.

Futurbama creator Steven Oracle says “We pitched Futurbama as a sort of Futurama meets West Wing thing.”

Not to reveal too much, but the second episode of Futurbama has the newly nominated Robotobama in a meeting with party honchos who are feeling some reservations about the questionable background of their candidate.

Revealing a gritty dark side to his personality, Robotobama tells the group,

“As your newly elected leader I am open to criticism and suggestions about any course of action I have decided upon.“

“I want you all to feel that you can freely express anything you think, on any topic, EXCEPT ONE, my qualifications and background. "

“If any of you bas***ds ever bring up my half-black half-white half-American half-Chinese-half-Japanese, half-human, half-robot background as a negative, then ..... I collect your head.” says Robotobama drawing his robotic samurai sword and in a horrifying instant, deftly and dramatically slices off the head of Global Warming Chicken, the Greenorsomething party's science policy advisor.

Resheathing his robotic sword he looks darkly at the assemblage only to ask “Any questions? I didn't think so....” fade out.

********************************

The critics seem to like what they have seen so far:

...“Awesome...awesome to the max”, said an unnamed human critic after viewing the first episode of FUTURBAMA.

....“Clean cut and articulate” and “Something for everyone or something.” said another.

.... “Ready for safe fun? Then you'll love Robotobama in Futurbama,” said a third.
