Barney Announces His Resignation from White House

Shocked at the mass exodus of presidential aides from his Administration George W. Bush was amazed today to learn his dog Barney is also leaving.  Still upset from being dropped by the President in front of reporters the canine has had enough.   He has also barked that he fears the chaos a White House wedding might cause to his precious toilets shrubbery. 

Barney has been the most loyal companion a President who values loyalty above all else could have, until now.  There is no truth, I repeat, no truth, to the rumor that George, in his raging fury over Barney's disloyalty, had the terrier groomed.  More details as they become public...

I was going to offer an update to your story with breaking news that Senator Craig will be replacing Barney, as the temptation to hump men's legs with impunity was too irresistible an opportunity for him. But then I remembered that you are trying to keep this blog "family friendly," and so I decided that I probably should not type anything like that here. <8O) LOL

Of course, being "dropped" in front of the reporters was devastating, but it is not the only reason Barney is calling it quits. Truth be told, he was angry at not getting any credit for being the real "brains" behind dubya.

dennis, that would explain Rove's departure too. I suppose he couldn't architect anything without his guru Barney. Yes, it all makes sense now, the barking up the wrong tree in Iraq, running around in circles in Afghanistan, the tight leash FEMA was on during Katrina, etc.
