In what is universally considered the most radical White House change yet, President Bush has agreed to trade places with Steve Bridges,¬†the “Bush impersonator” who performed at the White House Correspondents Dinner this past weekend.

A bipartisan consensus was reached that this would be a “win-win”¬†for the Country, since Bridges is obviously a lot smarter and articulate than the President, and, conversely,¬†the President is clearly¬†funnier than Bridges.¬† Foreign policy experts are particularly ecstatic, since they believe¬†that in the upcoming¬†critical negotiations with Iran, it’s crucial to have a President who can actually pronounce the word “nuclear.”

Proponents of cloning and stem cell research are also strongly supportive of the move, on the theory that this further vindicates the notion that a new, improved version of an individual can be achieved.

It is also reported that Laura Bush is very excited over the idea of a new mate, since she has apparently grown very frustrated¬†by her¬†husband simply declaring “Mission Accomplished” — before he actually finishes the job.

Leaders of both parties are also desperately seeking a “Rumsfeld impersonator,” but it appears that Professor Irwin Corey is solidly booked in Vegas for the forseeable future.

However, there is clearly no sentiment¬†to find a Cheney impersonator, since the fear is that the Vice President will¬†just shoot the poor guy in the face –¬†and then¬†take¬†his heart.

“May Day” takes on a whole new meaning with the anniversary of Bush’s infamous “Mission Accomplished” proclamation, as highlighted by Media Matters, courtesy of Crooks and Liars.

Political Wire reports on “Generic Democratic Congressional lead.”¬† I say let’s just¬†stick with the “generic” — it’s cheaper and usually just as effective.
