High-level Republican members from Congress joined selected lobbyists and rising party star, Sarah Palin in a White House funeral service for the US Constitution. The 222 year-old document was buried in the floor of an East Wing conference room after a moving eulogy delivered by President George W. Bush.
"We must not mourn change," the president explained in his ten minute oratory, "but welcome the exciting possibilities that await us." He went on to decry Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama's outdated stance on the Constitution, "Senator Obama thinks a piece of paper is more important than people. He thinks that regular folks, Americans, don't matter. Well, we're here to show him he's wrong."
The president acknowledged Gov. Palin and her meteoric rise to the national stage. "We have with us today the hope for our country. This little gal is a rock star. And I, for one, am proof that experience, education and world travel do not make up for presidential-ness."
