SANTA AUSTIN TX - Dec 20 - Attorneys for Texas Governor George W Bush filed suit in federal court today seeking to prevent Santa Claus from making his list and then checking it twice The complaint seeks an immediate injunction against the beloved Christmas icon asking the court to effectively ban his traditional practice of checking the list of good boys and girls one additional time before packing his sleigh The suit filed in the Federal District Court of Austin Texas asks a federal judge to hereby order Mr Claus to cease and desist all repetitive and duplicative list-checking activity and certify the original list as submitted without amendment alteration deletion or other unnecessary modification There are no standards for deciding who is naughty and who is nice It s totally arbitrary and capricious How many more times does he need to check? This checking checking and re-checking over and over again must stop now said former Secretary James Baker Baker further claimed that unnamed GOP observers witnessed an elf remove all boys named Brad from the nice list filing them under naughty instead because everyone knows all boys named Brad are brats Gov Bush cited the potential for unauthorized list tampering and blasted what he called the fuzzy math up there at the North Pole Their security is really awful really bad said Bush My mother just walked right in told em she was Mrs Claus They didn t check her ID or nothing Meanwhile Dick Cheney Gov Bush s running mate issued a direct plea to St Nick himself Mr Claus I call on you to do the honorable thing and quit checking your list The children of the world have had enough They demand closure now Cheney said adding that his granddaughter has already selected a name for the pony that she s asked for Santa Claus could not be reached for comment but a spokes-elf said he was deeply distressed by news of the pending legal action against him He s losing weight and he hasn t said Ho Ho Ho for days said the spokes-elf He s just not feeling jolly
