Latin America Here We Come


Washington (f-A-ke. P.) -

As President Bush embarks on his Latin American tour, the White House has announced that it is no longer cost effective to produce the adoring crowds that accompany the Mr. Bush to all of his speeches.

Americans are too expensive and, quite frankly, no longer as enthusiastic as we need them to be. You can't count on the Latin Americans either. Might shout pro-Chavez slogans at any moment. So we've decided to go with Bollywood extras. They're cheap. You can't beat 'em for enthusiasm. They look great, and man can they dance!
...explained Press Secretary Snow.

When asked if this might be referred to as "image out-sourcing" Mr. Snow declined to comment.
