SPRINGING THE SCAPEGOAT




DC: Mr. President? This is Dick.

GWB: Hi Dick. What's up?

DC: As you know, Scooter is going to go to the slammer soon.

I want you to spring him.

GWB: O.K.

But wait until I return from Kennebunkport.

I've got a bigger fish to fry here.

Lobster, too.

DC: Are you sure?

GWB: Sure about what...the fish or the lobster?

DC: Skip it.

Just make sure Libby doesn't ride his Scooter into prison. Got to remove the cloud that’s above our treasonous heads.

GWB: O.K. Dick.

Don't let your bald head worry about a thing

He’ll get sprung tomorrow.
