Inauguration Yesterday's News
Posted by Paul Constant on Tue, Jan 20, 2009 at 3:47 PM
Yesterday, at around the same time famous un-American terrorist Rush Limbaugh was saying that he hopes our new president fails, the Bush team was having the world's most depressing goodbye party.
The theme was "Crossing the Finish Line," and it was held in a drafty ballroom (party-goers were advised to wear coats and layers over their fancy clothes). Apparently, just about everybody was talking about how they were unemployed, except for a Treasury employee who scored a job as manager of an Abercrombie & Fitch.

The staff and other customers would also like you to stop, Will. So would everyone who ever has to look at you.

You are making that up, Paul Constant. That can't be true. From the US Treasury to managing a mall chain? Seriously?! That is too good.

Bush really "waved goodbye over the opening chords of "Don't Stop Believin'.""? The man constantly outdoes himself.
