REPORTER ASKS WRONG QUESTION ABOUT FREE SPEECH
By R J Shulman
WASHINGTON, D. C. – Reporter Madison James apparently asked a White House official whether the Bush Administration was in favor of free speech and was immediately subdued by police. “He asked it in an obnoxious way,” said officer Wayne Gibson of the DC Police Force “so we had to let him have it.” “We made sure we read him his rights,” said officer Blanche Puggs, “you know ‘you have a right to remain silent or say don’t taze me bro’, and stuff, but the jerk just looked at me in horror, and said Kucinich, you know the name of that left-wing traitor from Ohio that’s running for President that I hate so much, so I zapped him a good teeth-rattling one.”

James who works for the suburban Washington, Bethesda, Maryland weekly Bugle, told the Post Times Sun Dispatch that he was asking the White House official about whether President Bush supports the free spinach program being offered in several Maryland grade schools. “When that big officer came at me,” James told the P-T-S-D, “I kept yelling spinach, spinach, but it just seemed to enrage her further.” Vice President Dick Cheney was pleased with the response of the DC Police. “It is gratifying to know that we Americans are protected when some traitor steps outside a free speech zone. It’s is another example of how we are safer now than before 9-11.”
