A national sexual assault prevention group
Promoting Awareness Victim Empowerment
or PAVE
is calling for President Obama
to revoke Bill Cosby's
Presidential Medal of Freedom.
But Obama's eyes are bleary
and after a long pause
he says
"No I can't.
I can't do this again.
Give another solemn
yet righteously angry speech
expressing pathos and regret."
So now that Cosby
has been dropped by his talent agency
that would seem
to hurt his chances
of appearing on-screen indefinitely
until one man
known only as "V"
("I"
which is silent
because "'I' can sneak up on you
ninja-style")
"P"
or more commonly
"Vice President Joe Biden"
assumes Obama's role
and becomes a
Very Important Prosecutor
in the blockbuster ass-kicking
of the summer
of that same name.
