BO--(taking phone from aide) I'm here.
KS--Mr. President, Kathleen at HHS.
BO--Of course. We're going to have to make this quick, I'm in a bit of a rush.
KS--Congress on the other line?
BO--Congress?!? Who needs them? I just do what I want to. No, it's far more serious than that.
KS--The Russians? The Chinese?
BO--It's just that I'm hooking left, slicing right. Just can't seem to go straight.
KS--Sorry to hear that, Mr. President.
BO--Reggie doesn't seem to mind. He's beating me handily, like he always does.
KS--I see, Mr. President. Before you go back to whatever you're doing, I just wanted to ask you about this healthcare website. The one we have three years and $600 million to spend on.
BO--My "signature achievement", my "signature legislation"--
(sound of golf ball striking something)
BO--(muted shouting) Reggie!! What was that? Ha, ha!!
KS--In terms of scheduling and testing the site, Mr. President--
(line dead)
KS--How much testing do you think we're going to need on this before it goes live? Mr. President?
(aside) I hope he's not hurt . .
