Humor Czar? Apply at the Dept of Treasury....

I guess Joe Biden's "we need spend our way out of debt" and "just look around at the jobs we have created" calls for desperate measures at the Treasury? Hey Joe, send me your "internet number" and I'll forward you this job listing.

Note, this job was posted on July 9, 2009. The DEADLINE to apply is July 6, 2009. Sense of humor or just more stupidity from our illustrious government? Who's running this country anyway? Between Tweedle Dee Biden and Tweedle Dumb Pelosi things are getting stressful on Capital Hill. I'd venture to guess that Obama's speech writer and the person that wrote this ad graduated from the same school. You know...the writer who wrote that little fib about the 1965's Selma, Alabama Bloody Sunday, being the reason that his father was able to come to the US-meet O's mom and resulted in his 1961 birth. The same guy who advised Obama that he'd visited 57 states with one left to go, excluding Alaska and Hawaii..hmmmm that equals 60....bwaaahahahaha...you just can't make this stuff up. I think Joe should just take the job, or Obama's speech writer, or Pelosi....they are riots!
