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

Obama runs the country, George is the diplomat. It works really well for both of them, because George loves all of Obama's projects, so technically, when Obama becomes president in err, six years time, he'll have already run the country for eight years. George thought it was a fabulous plan when Ari suggested it. Of course every time something goes belly-up Ari wants to know when they're going back to L.A. to earn some real money.

omg. Ari as campaign manager? The world spins into the sun.

Baby, did you not read the above? Ari is the Chief of Staff.

Too. Yes, there should've been a too there.

Where in your comment does it Ari is Chief of Staff? Also, that's what the campaign manager becomes, so we're both not wrong.

Right?

It's in the original post. Also, good, it would be bad if my politics... i'm not even thinking about writing an AU with George as the president and Ari as the Chief of Staff. I haven't been that far into politics since I left home.

Um. Possibly I only skimmed the whole text part of the post. What?

Dude, seriously. That's why people LEAVE that town, you know?
