What are the odds somebody gets fired over this ?
I would bet on it. Obama will find a sacrificial lamb, for sure. Just like the Lord High Executioner in "The Mikado":
"As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed who never would be missed!
There's the pestilential nuisances who write for autographs
All people who have flabby hands and irritating laughs
All children who are up in dates, and floor you with 'em flat
All persons who in shaking hands, shake hands with you like that
And all third persons who on spoiling tête-á-têtes insist
They'd none of 'em be missed they'd none of 'em be missed!
CHORUS
He's got 'em on the list he's got 'em on the list;
And they'll none of 'em be missed they'll none of 'em be missed."
