For Immediate Release - Office of the Press Secretary - October 21, 2002 - 11:13 A.M. (EST)

SEC CHAIRMAN HARVEY PITT & VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY RELEASE REVISED WHITE HOUSE CODE OF CORPORATE ETHICS & RESPONSIBILITY
Statement by the SEC Chairman & Vice President

MR. PITT: Good morning. Many of you might remember me from my awkward sweatfest on Meet The Press some months back when I gave Tim Russert a steely gaze and told him that, as Chairman of the Securities & Exchange Commission, I wouldn't tolerate any shenanigans from all my frat brothers who just happen to run corporate America.

THE VICE PRESIDENT: Soon after that, Boy George really laid into the guys about appearing to look responsible and not giving the Jew York Times so much material about us pigging out on the corporate cookie jar. Then we all had a good laugh and everyone totally promised to make it seem like we cut it out. But then, because a bunch of sissy, poor-boy Democrats wouldn't stop whining, we had to save face by throwing some money at the SEC to combat bean counters and stuff like that.

MR. PITT: Well, a few months go by, and Dick and I are swapping fag jokes on the speaker phone last week when he asks me, "Harvey, which is more important – pointlessly harrassing innocent accountants, or laying waste to Allah-lovers who walk around with bricks of C-4 clenched between their sand-darkie ass cheeks?" Of course, any true-blooded American can answer that. Which is why all funding previously slated to inconvenience wealthy Republican CEO's is being redirected to the War on Terrorism and to pay for Presidential fundraising trips to important Muslamoid-controlled swing states.

THE VICE PRESIDENT: Indeed. America will be safer now because of this bold and brave decision that is NOT politically motivated. In lieu of this wasteful re-distribution of Federal wealth into the overflowing coffers of Harvey's unnecessary and pain-in-the-ass agency, I have taken it upon myself to revise and update the WHITE HOUSE CORPORATE HONOR CODE, of which all US CEO's have privately pledged to have the broad points and "big picture" spelled out to them by their personal assistants.
