Bad Environment

In between shots of ouzo in the Oval office tonight, we got some more bad news.

Toes came in with a long face and, looking right at Geithner, announced that another nominee had withdrawn. Geithner went pale and fell into a fetal position on the floor.

Then Rahm announced that it was Jon Cannon, who was going to be deputy head of the Environmental Protection Agency, and we all had a good laugh. The whole thing would have been funnier, but it looks like Timmy has put himself into some kind of fugue state. That's good news for the economy, but it sucks for Gibbsy, because Geithner was his designated driver and Gibbsy can't drive a stick.
