Fear of the Comedy Terrorists at the Onion.

It seems that the White House has ordered the satirical paper 'The Onion' to stop using the Presidential Seal. This is not a untoward kidnapping of the official Presidential circus animal.

Rather, Associate counsel to the president Grant M. Dixton sent a letter to the Onion on Sept. 28 stating that the seal "is not to be used in connection with commercial ventures or products in any way that suggests presidential support or endorsement."

The newspaper parodies President Bush's weekly radio address on its Web site, accompanied by a picture of President Bush and the official insignia. Intelligent people KNOW this is a not an endorsment by the president. So the Lawyer is reaching, probably for a way to stop the Comedy Terrorists infiltrated at the Onion from striking at America and the Free World.

In act, it is ripe for satire by the Onion. I 'm sure we'll see something.
