One of the Quiet Rooms That Governor Romney Speaks of so Longlingly

In a Quiet Room last night…

The Large One 

Who called it Obamacare?

The Be-speckled one from KY

You did.

LO

Don’t pin this on me!

The Orange One from the Midwest

Where would a pin fit on you?

LO

I’ve had enough of your inept leadership…

OO

I’m not a leader. I’m a spokeperson speaking for many one at a time

Quaffed One

I thought Romney Care was working?

Old Maverick

You haven’t had a thought since the late eighties before Contra.

QO

I never talked then.

OM

Exactly. There was room for your empty thoughts

The Round One Enters

This can still be fixed.

All of them except the RO

Oh Shut UP!!!

RO

Taxes! It’s all about taxes now.  We don’t like em and neither do the American people.

LO

I didn’t think this would happen in my lifetime?

BOKY

Health Insurace?

LO

No a black guy ever becoming President. Hell they have problems being quarterbacks.

Room is stunned silence.

LO (continued)

Oh come on they can’t read defenses when they're quarterbacks. It’s too much for their border collie mind.

RO

I thought you thought they were like german shephards.

LO

Ignatz or you know the Mexican dog guy started me thinking I’ve underestimated them.

BSOKY

He WAS way out of order. We shouldn’t have had his kind for 20 years or more. Let them coach a couple of decades or more. Maybe Lebron. He didn’t finish high school.

QO

I heard he went back for his mother. Like Shaq.

LO

OBAMACARE!!! WE’VE MADE HIM HISTORIC!!!

BOKY

Again I think it was you who started calling it that.

LO

It doesn’t matter we all used it!

QO

Even he has.

LO

Where’s my Oxy? I’m on the air in thirty ssecods. Obamacare could ring true forever. We’ve made him famous and all we wanted to do is make him a one term President.

QO

Here's your Oxy.  (He tosses a prescription bottle over to LO. LO takes a quick look at the bottle.) 

LO

You didn’t take any of these did you?

QO

What’s the big deal. I only took acouple.

LO

Tie him up and throw him in the lower Cadillac.

All of them

Will do.

QO

Oh I was going to have a real press conference. I would’ve been loose for a change.  

The rest lead him out. RO is the only one left.

RO

What are you going to say?

LO

I’ll rag on Sandra Fluke again. She’s tweeting too much. Her and Toure.

RO

Do you think we’ll get out of this one?

LO

Stop worrying. I’m rebroadcast in Pence’s county three times a day. The truth will be drowned out again. Are you going to be on Meet the Press soon?

RO

All I got to do is ask Dave and he always says yes.

LO

Who knew?

RO

I know. Let’s be thankful for small victories.

LO

Thanks has got nothing to do with it.

LO disappears into his studio. Two large guys with AK47s guard the door.
