The Buck Stops Here: President Obama having another stress-free day in the Oval Office.

Washington – President Obama this week hired ‘Professor’ Irwin Corey, a legendary vaudevillian who bills himself as “the world’s foremost authority,” to explain the administration’s complex economic policy, namely to spend trillions of dollars to bailout bankers and other low-lifes while at the same time cutting the national budget in half.

“Prof. Corey is a great communicator,” said a spokesman for the Oval Office, “and from now on he will deliver the State of the Union and other major addresses on how the national situation is beyond helpless and we’re going to come out of this ahead of the game. No one can explain it better than him.”

The spokesman said the president has agreed to adapt one of the professor’s famous slogans and place it on billboards across the country. It reads: “If we don’t change direction soon, we’ll end up where we’re going.”
Said Obama: “I find those words deeply moving and inspiring, and we should all take them to heart. Or at least to Cleveland.”
