WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Saying
that they needed to be in peak physical condition for their looming
effort to defund Obamacare, over a hundred House Republicans lined up
for their free annual physicals today. The physicals, part of Congress’s government-subsidized health-care
package, yielded good news for many of the House G.O.P., who learned
that they were strong and healthy enough for the demanding task of
defunding Obamacare. “My blood pressure was lower than I thought it would be,” said Rep.
Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). “That’s amazing, because it goes through the roof
whenever I think about how Obamacare would destroy America.” House Majority Leader Eric Cantor
(R-Virginia)—whose free annual physical included an examination of his
heart, lungs, ears, eyes, throat, and blood—said that his doctor
proclaimed him in perfect physical condition: “He said I should be able
to live a long, healthy life and defund Obamacare for many years to
come.”
