Salazar lays down the gauntlet!
Edited on Fri Jan-23-09 03:25 PM by NOW tense
"You know Wendy, this could be dangerous, since I serve at the pleasure of the president," Salazar replied. "I will say this in public, that we of the Department of the Interior will challenge President Obama and his White House team to a basketball game."

5. No way Salazar will be able to take a good shot with the hat on.
It might help on defense, though.

7. not to mention the black skid marks all over the court

6. Look out, White House Team!
Salazar wouldn't have shot his mouth off like that unless he has just discovered that the Interior department has a "ringer" ...

9. They'll appoint a totally unqualified former NBA player to a staff position.
"Oh, that guy, we need him to, uh, get stuff off that shelf for us. Hey, I wonder if he'd want to play on the team?"
