Where are we going to build the monument for Obama’s birthplace?
Can you imagine being the guy that has to set up the monument, calling the White House, asking for guidance?
I imagine it would go something like this:
“Good afternoon, the White House. How can I help you?”
“Hello, this is the Acme Monument Company. We have the birthplace monument ordered for the President. Where do we deliver this and set this up?”
“Just a moment, please.”
“Hello, Mr. Acme....”
“Err, no, I’m not Mr. Acme. This is Joe. I’m the plumber. I make sure the monuments are plumb.”
“Oh, Ok, Joe the Plumber. Please hold—I am checking for you.”
“Lady, I ain’t got all day—where do you want this thing?”
“Joe, I have an answer for you!”
“Well, what is it?. C’mon—I got a crew of day laborers here from Home Depot and it’s almost siesta time.”
“Well, Joe, the President’s office says that the location for the monument has been, err, ahh, sealed.”
“Hey, lady, sealed, smealed. I need a location to drop this thing. Do you know how embarrassing it is to drive around with a pair of big stone ears on your flatbed truck?”
“Joe, it’s a matter of national security. The location is sealed.”
“No problem, lady. Tell Mr. Obama to look out his window. I’m dropping it off next to the cheesy plastic patio table where he drinks his beer. Thanks for nuttin’.”
I suggest "the monument" consist of few artifacts super glued into a red Radio Flyer coaster wagon. That way, it can easily be relocated as changing conditions and the evolving narrative warrant.
Well done! :0)
Everyone will want one of those Obama 'world's largest ball of string' roadside attractions
Can we use stimulus money to build them ?
