TV’s Dr. Dreamy to be Surgeon General

No, not this guy.  CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta reportedly made the cut and will be chosen as President-Elect Barack Obama’s surgeon general.  His prognosis of accepting the position is 120 over 60, meaning we could have a new Doctor in Chief stat.  All vital signs indicate that he would be compatible match for the job.  The Barely Newsworthy’s Medical Correspondent, Dr. Jay P. Jargon MD Ph.D adds “in addition to hemoglobin angioplastic cystic fibrosis, Gupta brings experience in ventricle nuerotastical metabolistic erectile dysfunction.”

The Washington Post calls Gupta ”America’s most famous television surgeon,” but I highly doubt that.  I think someone from Grey’s Anatomy or ER would beat him in head-to-head Nealson Death Match.  Heck, even Jack from Lost would win. I am very dissapointed in the Post for their clumsy reporting.

“America’s most famous television surgeon,” according to the Washington Post (but I highly doubt that)

Have Hope, Obama Job Seekers

But not that much hope.  Obama-Biden Transition Chief Chris Lu told supporters today that they will only “scratch the surface” of the Plumb Book come Inauguration Day, Politico’s Ben Smith reports.  Hiring will continue into the spring and even summer, Lu said.  

Since a spot in the Obama Administration is the hottest job in town, this news may be an awesome ray of hope, almost as powerful as the man himself, to Obama devotees.  Well, let me be the first to crush that dream.  There are about 346,000 job seekers for a meager 7,000 spots, Lu said.  That gives you about a 2% of landing one (if you round up).  You have a better chance of getting into Harvard, you  East Coast, hoity-toity, pinky drinking, pink shirt wearing, sail boat sailing, yaht club membershiping elitist.
