Should 30-Day "Termination of Employment" Notice Be Sent to Barack Obama?

Satire by John W. Lillpop





Although the Obama administration is openly encouraging defense contractors to violate the WARN act by NOT issuing layoff notices to employees who may be terminated as a result of Sequestration-driven cutbacks, common sense and decency suggest that those who are likely to lose their employment should be notified of such eventuality as soon as possible.

Which is why this pundit believes that President Obama should be alerted to the fact that his position on the government payroll for another four years is very much in dispute.

We believe that the president should receive the following 30-day notice, backdated to October 6, on Monday:


October 6, 2012



The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue

Washington, D.C.

Attention: Barack Obama




Dear Mr. President:

Although this notice is not required by WARN or other Congressional mandate, in keeping with professional standards of common decency and transparency, we feel it appropriate to advise you that your employment with the US government is in serious jeopardy, and may very well be terminated by We the People on November 6, 2012.

Should your employment, in fact, be terminated, you will have until January 20, 2013 to remove your personal effects, and those of your family, from the Oval Office and residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

By law, the White House must be vacated and in shovel-ready status for the incoming President (Mitt William Romney) by high noon on January 20.

There is no appeals process: The decision of the American people is final.

Please return all White House keys and locks to the Secret Service agent assigned to you, and bring the nuclear football with you to the Inauguration of President-elect Romney.

We would like to report that the past four years have been a pleasure; however, the word honesty precludes us from doing so.

Best wishes to Michelle and the girls for the days and years to follow.

Sincerely,


WE THE PEOPLE

From Sea to Shining Sea
