I don't know how to do 'blue clickies' so I have to type this out ....many of you may have seen it but I thought it worth repeating.
May 1 2007: Washington, DC (AP) -- Congress today announced that the office of President of the United States of America will be outsourced to India as of July 1 2007. The move is being made in order to save the President's $500,000 yearly salary and also a record $521 BILLION in deficit expenditures and related overhead the office has incurred during the last five years. "We believe this is a wise financial move. The cost savings are huge " stated Congressman Thomas Reynolds (R-WA). "We cannot remain competitive on the world stage with the current level of cash outlay,"Reynolds noted.
Mr. Bush was informed by e-mail this morning of his termination. Preparations for the job move have been underway for some time.
Gurvinder Singh of IndusTeleservices, Mumbai, India will assume the office of President as of July 1 2007 Mr.Singh was born in the US while his Indian parents were vacationing at Niagara Falls thus making him eligible for the position He will receive a salary of $320 (USD) a month but with no health coverage or benefits.
It is believed that Mr. Singh will be able to handle his job responsibilities without a support staff. Due to the time difference between the US and India, he will be working primarily at night, when few offices ofhe US Government will be open. "Working nights will allow me to keep my day job at the Dehli Computer Call Center," stated Mr Singh in an exclusive interview. "I am excited abut this position . I always hoped I would be Presdident." A Congressional spokesperson noted that while Mr. Singh may not be fully aware of all the issues involved in the office of President, this should not be a problem as President Bush was not familiar with the issues either.
Mr. Singh will rely upon a script tree that will enable him to responsd effectively to most topics of concern. Using these canned responses, he can address common concerns without having to understand the underlying issue at all. "We know these scripting tools work," stated the spokesperson. "President Bush has used them successfully for years."
Bush will receive health coverage, expenses, and salary unti his final day of employment. Following a two week waiting period, he will be eligible for $140 a week unemployment for 13 weeks. Unfortunately he will not be eligible for Medicaid, as his unemployment benefits will exceed the allowed limit. Mr Bush has been provided the outplacement services of Manpower, Inc to help him write a resume and prepare for his upcoming job transition. According to Manpower, a Greeter position at Wal-Mart was suggested due to Bush's extensive experience shaking hands as well as that special smile.
