August 8, 2011: Skip: That's no my problem, Dude. Uh-huh. I told them no, too. All right. Talk to you later. Will: Who was that? Skip: The president. He and Congress want to borrow a trillion dollars to get their credit rating back. Will: Isn't that missing the point? Skip: That's what I told Pelosi, but she just kept staring at me with that weird, spaced-out smile.
August 10, 2011: Obama begs for money. President Barack Obama: You know, Skip, Warren Buffett said that the rich aren't taxed enough. He's even said he'd be willing to pay more taxes! Skip: Awesome, Dude! I'll write you a check. Whatever he's paying in extra taxes, I'll double it! President Barack Obama: Well, he hasn't actually paid anything, yet. Skip: Uh-huh. What's two times zero, again?
August 12, 2011: President Barack Obama: I'm off for vacation. Want to join me? We could play a little golf. Skip: That could be fun. President Barack Obama: We could even make it interesting. Say... $100 billion per hole? Skip: What if you lose, Dude? President Barack Obama: Psh! America would never default on a golf debt! Skip: All right. I'm in. But I'm not giving you any strokes.
