1/20/06 Michael Richards In, John Bolton Out as New Bush Ambassador to
UN
Washington, DC (Rotters) - The White House this morning, in a hurried
press conference, announced that the president would be withdrawing his
controversial reappointment of John Bolton as US ambassador to the
United Nations. Perhaps deciding that the inflammatory nomination was
not worth the battle in Congress, it was announced that Bush would be
putting forward the immediate nomination of comedian Michael Richards
to fill the post.
The White House cited the success of its venture into the entertainment
business with the appointment of Fox network's Tony Snow as press
secretary to fill the vacancy left by Scott McClellan.
"Michael had a little slip up and he apologized immediately," said an
anonymous White House source. "This is precisely the rapid thinking on
one's feet that this position needs. We regret Michael's recent loss of
his cool, but he was in the midst of a comedy routine, and sometimes
things can be taken the wrong way in the heat of the moment... it's not
like he called someone a macaca or insulted our troops or something...
besides, most of the audience seemed to be really with him in his
comments... that's exactly the bold leadership that we want at the UN
to advance America's objectives."
Bolton's parting with the White House on the surface appeared to be
amicable. Rumor had it that he was able to secure a multimillion dollar
contract with Quaker Oats Inc. as their new spokesperson, replacing
the aging Wilford Brimsley. Quaker is set to launch a new "get tough
with cholesterol" advertising campaign which will spotlight the talents
of the frequently acerbic Bolton.
President Bush, just returned from what he described as a smashingly
successful trip to Indonesia, stated that he was looking forward to
working with Richards. "I'm a big fan," stated Bush, "I've got all his
episodes on tape. Lot's of folks were into that whole Ross/Rachel
thing, but I always thought that he carried the show... How YOU
doin'?... that still cracks me up... and I use it sometimes myself!"
