Bush Uses Tax-Payer Funded Lawyer To Scare Off Parody News Site

Apparently the White House has not been busy enough lately. Even with it's various high-level job appointments, the Hurricane Katrina response investigation, and the CIA leak scandal, the president has still found time to root out a true evil corrupting American's everywhere: the use of the presidential seal on a popular parody website. The Onion, which Bush has continually confused with the Washington Post, posts a weekly parody radio address that uses a picture of the president and the presidential seal. The White House lawyer, who is well-paid by the American taxpayer (in other words, poor people), sent a letter to The Onion, demanding that they remove the presidential seal. The Onion wrote a response, claiming their site is free, and therefore not using the seal in a commercial venture, which is the only grounds on which the White House could force the seal to be removed.
