Congress Rents Inflatable Moonbounce Despite Debt Crisis

By Billy Pilgrim, National Nitwit Rogue Editor

(Washington, DC)—While the U.S. national debt reached the unprecedented watermark of $8.3 trillion this week, congressional leaders spend the weekend reveling in a Mickey Mouse moonbounce.

Several aides remarked at how quickly partisan debate evaporated once senators were inside the joyous, fluffy contraption.

“Man, this has been a blast,” beamed Republican senator Mike DeWine from Ohio. “Of course, there was a brief altercation when Teddy [Kennedy] wouldn’t take his shoes off, but that was nothing a bottle Cutty Sark couldn’t fix.”

Other leaders echoed this theme of congeniality, and appeared unaffected by the nation’s mounting financial strain.

“We take the good faith and credit of the American people very seriously,” affirmed Democratic senator Paul Sarbanes of Maryland. “That’s why we ordered a couple dozen Domino’s pizzas and drank generic cola instead of eating downtown. Discipline, sir —it’s all about discipline.” Charlie Sheen

These are very good at reducing stress. We installed a moonbounce in the Mayor's office for Mayor Ford during the first month of his term. Since all of his stress was gone, he always appeared very relaxed and we always had to fight accusations that he was stoned on valium or qualudes. Carty was so happy with the contraption, he installed a shower in the next room and now seldomly ever goes home.
