White House calls on Military to Stop Swine and Swine Flu Panic

by Lee Leslie | 2, Add your Comment | Apr 28 09

nycrowdFaced with the potential double swine panic in New York City yesterday, the White House sent two F-16s and Air Force One lookalike in a daring preemptive strike to blow the air out of the media cycle. The precision photo-op decimated expected media coverage of Wall Street quarterly non-earnings and the St. Francis Prep post-spring break flu outbreak.

Office workers fled towers throughout Midtown worried that 4/27 would turn into a repeat of 9/11.

Fully informed in advance, but still “furious” Mayor Bloomberg, put a positive spin on the day to the media, saying, “The good news is it was nothing more than an inconsiderate, badly conceived and insensitive photo op with the taxpayers’ money.”

Late in the day, the Director of the White House Military Office, Louis Caldera, became the only victim of the strike as he fell on his sword and took full blame.

    Swine flu is just a bad case of the pig fever which was hatched from Chicken Little who said the sky was falling when it was only a mad cow watching a bad plane fly too close to a good city.

About the author Lee Leslie: I’m just a plateaued-out plain person with too much time on his hands fighting the never ending lingual battle with windmills for truth, justice and the American way or something like that. Here are some reader comments on my writing: “Enough with the cynicism. One doesn’t have to be Pollyanna to reject the sky is falling fatalism of Lee Leslie’s posts.” “You moron.” “Again, another example of your simple-minded, scare-mongering, label-baiting method of argumentation that supports the angry left’s position.” “Ah, Lee, you traffic in the most predictable, hackneyed leftist rhetoric that brought us to the current state of political leadership.” “You negative SOB! You destroyed all my hope, aspiration, desperation, even.” “Don’t you LIBERALS realize what this COMMIE is talking about is SOCIALISM?!?!?!” “Thank you for wonderful nasty artful toxic antidote to this stupidity in the name of individual rights.” “I trust you meant “bastard” in the truest father-less sense of the word.” “That’s the first time I ran out of breath just from reading!” “You helped me hold my head a little higher today.” “Makes me cry every time I read it.” “Thanks for the article. I needed something to make me laugh this mourning.” “If it weren’t so sad I would laugh.” “Amen, brother.”
