Representative Miller, we think you’re on the right track. Considering how demanding your job is, we’d be more than happy to fill in. We’ve prepared a couple statements to read on your behalf. Allow us to summarize the main points:

• “We could just get those glasses with the eyes painted on and take a little nap.”
• “Oh, can we tag the executive branch and say ‘you’re it!’ and make them write all the legislation?”
• “Let’s just copy last year’s congressional record and paste it into this year’s. Then — PIZZA PARTY!”
