Clinton Says Badtz-Maru May Be His Favorite Sanrio Character

WASHINGTON, DC–In a surprise reversal, President Clinton announced Monday that Badtz-Maru is “probably” his favorite Sanrio character. “Badtz-Maru is a very mischievous little penguin,” Clinton said. “I love it when he rolls his eyes and sticks out his tongue. Also, he lives in Gorgeoustown, where he attends first grade at the Gorgeous Academy with his friends Hana Maru the seal and Pandaba the panda bear. Badtz-Maru likes to take walks in the park with his pet alligator Pochi. He is so funny!” In 1997, Clinton had stated that Keroppi the frog is his favorite Sanrio character.
