Funning said the Reagan Library was selected as the location where Mr. McCain will prepare for this first debate. "The Senator wants to be surrounded by the Reaganism of it all," said Funning. "He’s really excited."
Meanwhile, over lunch...
That debate is coming next week Phil. We gotta come up with something spectacular, a new policy, a premiere pander, something.
We got it covered John.
So what’s doing?
Well, I wasn’t supposed to tell you yet, but we have a special surprise in store.
Nooo, really?
Yep, a trip to California.
Raise some cash?
Some, but we’ve thinking we could put you up at the Reagan library for the week. Think of the symbolism John.
I don’t know Phil, what with him dead and all...
Nah, don’t worry. What do you think Cheney has been doing at that undisclosed location all this time?
Charging his pacemaker?
No, he’s been working on a Reagan clone. It’s called Operation Dead President, very hush hush you understand.
Yeah, er...
You’ve been scheduled for 4 hours of debate prep with ODP, we don’t call him Ronnie. Can’t upset Nancy now can we?
Oh, yes, I see.
Simi Valley, John, it’s lovely there this time of year.
I don’t know Phil, that’s kinda creepy.
What’s creepy?
That...that...well, you know, doesn’t he have Alzheimer's?
Not anymore he doesn’t John.
Wow, the American healthcare system really is good, isn’t it.
