		<description>Whoa, whoa, whoa, Speaker of the House? I thought you&#039;d curb spending by eliminating two useless branches of government, therefore enabling us to not cut taxes, blaming it on &quot;the old guard&quot; two party system.</description>

		<description>You can&#039;t be president AND vice president! I could see the news reports:

&quot;Today is a great day for the Totalitarian States of America, as the president was assassinated by a well-placed Banana Bomb, Concrete Donkey and Salvation Army Lady, dropped by a Spider-man-ninja-rope rebel worm. He would have been succeeded by his vice president, but since he was, um, holding both offices at once, the position fell to the Speaker of the House.  So like now we have two spots to fill.  Fuck.&quot;

And yes I&#039;ll take your Chief of Staff, as long as there&#039;s sexual debauchery to be had and impeached for.

Mmmm, peaches.</description>

		<description>You&#039;ll be my Vice Bitch, if you aren&#039;t careful.  Anyway, a question mark isn&#039;t necessary, because I wasn&#039;t stating a real question and expecting an answer.  It was more of a rhetorical statement, like &quot;Now that would suck.&quot;

How about you be my Chief of Staff?  The Karl rove to my Dubya.  The VP position has been filled already -- I&#039;m going to be holding that position concurrently while President.

		<description>Well you can&#039;t be president then, because &quot;Now wouldn&#039;t that be fun&quot; should end in a question mark and I, for one, may have spelled scandal incorrectly but at least my grammar is...good-like. And dammit, whether you like it or not, I have total dibs on VP. It&#039;d be easier anyway if we worked in the same office; then I wouldn&#039;t have to drag the 360 around so much.

We could just put it on the desk, and when you give speeches and shit, people would be able to see it and they&#039;d be like &quot;Oh, I really relate to what he&#039;s saying because he plays video games like any average Joe.&quot;

You know, cause the public is retarded like that.</description>

		<description>I considered keeping Defense, but I always liked the image &quot;War Department&quot; evoked.  You make a good point, though, about the irony in Defense.  It certainly fits better with the &quot;charmingly evil&quot; that my administration would probably be infamous for.

As far as the Democrats go, I honestly believe that they can&#039;t do any worse than the Republicans have done.

Speaking of crazed Texans, I hear-tell that Jeb Bush, the current governor of Florida and brother to Bush II, is considering a run for President.  Now wouldn&#039;t that be fun.

		<description>I&#039;m glad to hear the Democrats plan on trying to implement the policies you have quoted.  As long as some crazed Texan doesn&#039;t intervene too much, it seems like we are headed in a better direction.</description>

		<description>I wasn&#039;t sure if you&#039;d bring back that cabinet, or just keep calling it &quot;defense&quot; for the sense of irony. I think I&#039;d rather be Secretary of State/War. I&#039;m way more clever and nasty than Rumsfeld or Rice. I could easily see proposing a first strike on the United Nations itself, or beguiling reporters with my charm, on issues that have nothing to with whats going on at all.</description>

		<description>Very well.

Lindsey, you can be . . . um, in charge of Homeland Security.  Your bubbly and talkative self will throw off all the insurgents that my administration will inevitably have to deal with.

Press Secretary is you, B.  You can make the Press Corp cry.

Hmm . . . Nick.  Perhaps the Attorney General?  You canhelp me contain the Constitution.

Nate, I think you&#039;d be perfect heading up the Department of Education.  A sort of irony in that, eh?  Perhaps you could hold a dual-position and also be in charge of the Office of National Drug Control Policy.

I also need a Secretary of War.  Any takers?
