President and Vice President Hold Press Conference.
President and Vice President Hold Press Conference.



President George Clooney and Vice President Barack Obama sat down with Treasury Secretary Sam Brownback to talk about the current financial surplus and how the President plans to spend that money.

"Five years ago, I would've used this money to finance a movie critizing the administration, but since I *am* the administration, that would be a little detrimental. I was thinking I would just give all the money to PBS and the arts. And Medicaid, because it would be nice if we all had heath coverage, wouldn't it?"

After sorting out the crisis in Darfur, creating peace in the Middle East, finding an alternative oil source in vegetable oil, and financing a cure for cancer, the President laughed off suggestions that he might need a vacation. "I'll sleep when Anderson says I can," the President joked of the First Gentleman. "Apparently, I still need to get global warming under control or I have to sleep on the sofa tonight."

After today's press conference, Clooney and Obama will meet with the Secretary of State Oprah Winfrey, and Chief of Staff Ari Gold to talk about ways to improve the U.S.'s standing with third world countries. "We're talking about dropping the debt for 2012," Winfrey confided to The Washington Post earlier this week. "We think it's about time that everyone got on the same page."

When asked about Winfrey's statement, Gold rolled his eyes. "Hell no," he said. "Tell Oprah to get back on her meds."

The President and the First Gentleman will be in London next week to attend the baptism of Prince William's daughter, Diana.




**This travesty of RPF created based on George being so awesome and speaking before the UN today. Yay, George! Also, [livejournal.com profile] heidi8 tells me that George will be on Anderson tonight because he misses his baby daddy even though Anderson is still out of the office. Do you think they have satellite phone sex?

I am so wrong. I know this. It's great. I need to buy me one of those Clooney in 2008 shirts

Clooney was amazing. I watched on CNN and watched all of Wiesel's speech too. As I said in a f-locked post over on my LJ:


    And over on CNN - International George Clooney was buffed, bespoked and beautifully elegant. He was addressing the UN about the looming crisis in the Sudan. He spoke a tad awkwardly, spoke with passion and looked more gorgeous than I've ever seen him look - which yes I admit is bloody shallow of me to have even noticed at a time when he's pleading for intervention to save human life. Professor Elie Wiesel was in the delegation with him and spoke wonderfully about what the UN could/should do.

    How did he look? He's the personification of a homage to Cary Grant & Gregory Peck. In technicolour. Or, as they used to say: Living Technicolour.


      Yes, it was f-locked for other reasons ;-)

I'm down with the 2x4!

I think getting George elected would be super-easy; the country is ready for him!!!!

Oh, George. And this, this would be why I adore that man.

The entire time I was watching the interview all I could think was, "Aw, George missed Anderson so much that he agreed to the interview just so he could be in his office!"

He did look smashing, didn't he? Phwoar.

[identity profile] hackthis.livejournal.com 2006-09-15 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
You are very welcome!

I know. George is made of awesome.

oh my god, I think I just broke something laughing.

But the idea has merit. Admit it, you want to live in that country, too.

Forget about the idea of Jon having a sekrit hate on Anderson (even though they're friends) because not only is he first man, but he got there by boning Jon's crush

And the tragic thing about Jon's hate for Anderson would be the fact that Anderson actually has a little crush on Jon which George would tease him about and then Anderson would get all giggly.

"I'll sleep when Anderson says I can," the President joked of the First Man. "Apparently, I still need to get global warming under control or I have to sleep on the sofa tonight."

Bwah!!!!

This totally made my day.

When I first started to read it, I thought I *was* reading about our country. And I had to double-take when I got to Anderson, the First Man, and realized I was actually reading about an alternate universe that I would sell the clothes off my back to live in.

I think I love you. First Man, Ari as Chief of Staff... so, so awesome.
