U.S. Says It Will Bail Out Christmas
Easter and even Valentine’s Day might be next
With the government on the brink of rescuing the U.S. auto industry, we have learned that the Treasury Department is drawing up plans to bail out Christmas. “We have reason to believe,” said a person close to the matter, “that without an immediate capital injection, Santa Claus will fail before December 24.” Mr. Claus could not be reached for comment.

And if it’s true, Andrew Sullivan will write a piece on how the Christianists have taken over the Treasury. (Not to mention that a bailout of the North Pole will benefit Governor Palin.)
