Bush had surgery over the weekend.
I got this one in my e-mail this morning.

BETHESDA, MD (IWR News Parody) - President Bush on Saturday morning had what
the White House billed as "elective outpatient" brain surgery to remove the
frontal lobe from his brain.
The surgery was ordered by Bush's chief political strategist Karl Rove after
Bush's humiliating defeat by John Kerry in the last debate.

"Dubya has been twitching, making weird faces and fluttering his eyes so
much lately, it's like having a conversation with Barney Fife!

Too make things worse, the President has also been pretty much an obnoxious
little bastard all year long," said Rove to reporters.

The surgeon in charge, Dr. Scholl, said the whole procedure only took 30
minutes and that most of the time was spent drilling through the patient's
thick skull.

"He had the thickest skull that we have ever operated on in the entire
history of Bethesda Naval Hospital.

Fortunately, we had an extra set of drill bits so we were able to get the
job done on schedule.

Once we finally reached the frontal lobe, we were able to suck it right out
with a Roto-Rooter. After that, We filled up the empty cavity with some
Bondo," said Dr. Scholl.

The president, who was only given a local anesthetic, was able to go home
and watch cartoons on TV right after the surgery.

3. I like the Barney Fife imagery, perfect future post for him!
Deputy of Crawford! I can just see him, chest puffed out, talking about the "hard work!" "Sad-dam's a threat...gotta NIP IT!"

Of course Sheriff Andy would never give him a bullet for his gun.

4. After the operation, the commander in chief was overheard
stating "I would rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy".

When the last protesting chickenhawk was removed from the hospital.... the procedure took place as planned without incident.

5. Long overdue surgery.
I would have figured the frontal lobe would have rotted away long ago from non-use.
