Why does bush need a press secretary?
The white house should just announce that Americans should listen to rush limbaugh and faux news to get all the information they need about the president and his "policies" and "successes." There really is no need to have someone being asked pesky questions by "journalists."

1. Did you see last week's South Park?
Family Guy are going to show an episode with an uncensored image of the prophet Mohammed. This is from Bush's press conference:

TCO Reporter: Mr. President, can't you force the Family Guy writing staff not to write anything about Mohammed?

LSX Reporter: Couldn't you throw them in prison?

President Bush: Look! The fact of the matter is the Family Guy writing staff is protected by something called the First Amendment!

Reporter 2: And what exactly is this First Amendment, Mr. President?

President Bush: (beat) Uh you know, the right to free speech.

Reporters: (in unison) AWWW!!! (they begin to fight furiously and clamor amongst themselves)

Reporter 3: Mr. President, when your administration came up with this "First Amendment," did it not foresee a problem like this might happen?

President Bush: (beat) Well... We didn't come up with the First Amendment. It was already in place.

TCO Reporter: What do you intend to do about this "First Amendment," Mr. President?

Reporter 4: Forgive me, Mr. President, but this "First Amendment" sounds like a lot of bureaucratic jibbery-joob?

Reporters: Yeah!

Reporter 5: That's right!
