National Director of Eschatology and Rapture Announced
In a time when George W. Bush’s first-term cabinet has dissolved in a rash of resignations, the President has taken an ambitious step toward his goals for his second term. On Tuesday, Bush announced the addition of a new cabinet-level position within his administration: the Director of Eschatology and Rapture.
The head of the new department will be Dr. Tim LaHaye, pastor and bestselling co-author of the Left Behind series.
Speaking of the appointment, Bush said, “I figured, Timmy’s done such a good job of making up an imaginary rapture, he’d be the best at coming up with the real thing during the next four years. Lord knows I haven’t had any luck getting it started myself. Besides, he’s a real snappy dresser.†– The Holy Observer
