Warming to the President
Michelle follows up on the story of President Obama’s preference for a carbon footprint second in size only to President Al Gore’s.
Oops! Did I say President Gore? Old habits…
Anyway, I want my president focused and clear-headed. Decisions made while he’s sluggish and muddled from the arctic cold of Washington are not even to be thought of.
I’ve done some research, again free of charge for my country, and I suggest we order up a mess o’ these babies:
For the ultimate in nasty weather, you’ll want the ultimate in down coats. The Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero SL Parka covers you in 650-fill down to keep you warm, and is made with Conduit laminate to be water- and windproof. Nutshell Taslan reinforcement is super tough to resist the ravages of pack straps, rock and the rest of the abuse you put your poor, innocent coats through. The Parka compresses down mind-bendingly small into the included stuff sack. The Sub Zero’s down-filled hood gives you super warmth for super cold conditions, and it snaps off easily. Baffle construction keeps the down where it belongs so it doesn’t all shift to one end of the coat.
Baffling? How perfect for this president! And won’t the color nicely set off the powder-blue logo he’s so fond of?
Anyhow, it sounds up to the task of keeping him warm and functional in the harsh conditions of the Oval Office at 72 degrees.

Snuggies are cheap enough that we could flood the WH with hundreds of them. (Remember Bush I and the broccoli?)
