Salute to Marin

In the Oval Office.

"Mr. President, our focus groups show that a new language and approach is required to continue our program."

"Don't tell me it's those Marin Hot Tubbers at it again."

"I'm afraid so sir.  The new designation for Secretary of Defense is Mother of Vulnerability."

"What!!??"

"They tell us complete vulnerability connects us with our full power, Mother, to help balance the male/female polarities.

"Oh my God, this country is going to pot."

"Exactly, all soldiers will be required to carry medical marijuana in their first aid kits."

"Any more bad news?"

"All battle fields must be feng shui-ed before an attack and an astrologer must sign off on the correct timing."

"This is too much... I CAN'T STAND THIS!!  We can't carry on a war like this."

"Don't worry sir.  You'll be able to contact your feelings in the pre-battle, clothing-optional dolphin swim with the enemy."

"Aargh...."

"The enemy, by the way, is now called Denied Self Reflected."

"LAURA! We're going to the ranch this weekend.  I'm outa here."

"Sir, before you leave I was advised to give you and Mrs. Bush this book on trantra yoga..."


...and realize there is no enemy.
