Batman on the Job.



In a bold move, President Obama announced that he had named Batman as Special Envoy. Bat Man's first stop was Cuba where he will try to improve relations between Washington and its long time adversary. "We have decided to see what we can do about mending our relationship with Havana" said one administration official. There was no word on what would be discussed in the talks. Bat Man's next stop is the Middle East where it is hoped he will be able to make progress on many of the thorny issues the U.S. faces in the region. According to an unnamed source in Washington, "Bat Man can be very persuasive. People listen to Batman. People respect Batman. He is a valuable asset to the United States. Nobody pushes the Bat Man around."

Cuban leaders in the U.S. welcomed the move. "If Washington had sent anyone else, we never would have agreed to the talks. We know the Batman is honest and fair. He can be counted on to do the right thing."
