Alumni Troubles in the White House

Issue date: 3/11/09 Section: Greek Corner
I'm going to give you a scenario, let's see what you think.
It's a nice, typical spring day in Washington DC. The Mall is green with growing grass and it's warm enough that people are throwing Frisbees and flying kites.
The White House is looking quite majestic and all seems quiet and peaceful. We find our current president, Barrack Obama, looking over documents in the Oval Office.
An office assistant knocks, and enters the room.
"Mr. President?"
"Yes. Come In. I'm just going over the stimulus plan." He replies.
"Uh, you have visitor at the front door."
"Oh, okay. Just give me one second."
He stands, buttons his suit jacket and smoothes out his tie. On the way to the front door he wonders who it might be. Even more intriguing, he wonders who has the ability to show up unannounced without an appointment.
Our president strides down the hallway towards the front door, where two secret service agents are posted. He smiles at the stone like sentinels as he reaches for the door knob. "President Bush?"
"Yep Baracky, How are things going?"
Before President Obama can get over the surprise of the situation, the former president brushes past him and enters the White House.
"I like what you've done with the place? It looks you've got some new furniture, Ikea?"
"Uh, yeah?" President Obama replies, still a little confused.
"Well it looks good, not great. Do you got a drink for me?"
"Sure, I can do that. Sir, I don't mean to be rude, but why are you here?"
"Well son, I've been watching quite a bit of Fox News and I've got some pointers to help us through this whole economic thing."
President Obama, being a patient man, smiles and leads the past president down the hall towards the Oval Office.
"I see you didn't keep the secretary I hired." The former president states as the two walk through the reception area.
"Actually, we call them Administrative Assistants now."
