    As the end of his second term approached, President Obama, like previous incumbents, sought an achievement that could be his legacy. With Middle East diplomacy a difficult, if not impossible, endeavor, President turned his thoughts to a more attainable goal: resolving a longstanding feud between pirates Edward Teach and Stede Bonnet. Here, the president meets Daniel Bollegren, whom the president appointed his special envoy to the pirate captains. Mr. Bollegren conducted extensive research into piracy so that he would be better able to relate to Captains Teach and Bonnet in initial discussions. Unfortunately, due to sequestration, Mr. Bollegren’s research budget included only enough money to rent the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

  22. Pharoah Narim says:

    “Let me get this straight…you’re here from Bethesda to do my Prostate exam?!?!?!?”

  23. “That be all well and good, Mister President, but unless ye be giving me a waiver, I be having to cut Polly’s share of the booty to only 20 hours per week.”

On one hand we don’t much like mandatory fees and coverage you see, being for free contract.
