What Do They Do When Joe Refuses To Vacate His Office in January?

[stopbush]

Do the call the Sergeant-at-arms? Do they call a couple of goons to drag him away,
kicking and screaming, "I know how to better use that office to serve the people who don't follow
any political party! I know where all of the outlets are?" Does he pull a Steve Martin in
"The Jerk," grabbing lamps and paperweights on his way out ("all I need is this paperweight...
and this magic marker...and this signed picture of W...")?

If Joe's behavior today is any indication, there's a crazy person incident brewing down the road.

1. What if he's so pissed, he leaves before his term is up?

It's possible considering that he is acting somewhat looney.

2. Shit, he's just gonna start his own government

A nation of one!

3. Two guys, one on each side to lift him. He will be in that "on his knees"

posture.

4. Remember the Star Trek skit on SNL?

Where they literally dismantled the set out from under Shatner but he stil refused to leave? I think Loserman's entire self image is based on his senatorial position and it's easy to imagine a total meltdown when he is forced to vacate the premeses. I saw him on TV a couple times today and he appears to be dancing very close to the edge already. We need a public breakdown since we were denied seeing Gibson's and I can't think of one I'd like to see more than Loserman. Well there is one and I think his time is coming very soon too.

5. They'll set up a fake FOX News booth across the street w/ cameras.

Joe'll be out of that office lickety-split.

6. Send in the FBI to clear out all his papers. n/t

7. Nail the door shut and rent a cement mixer.

8. I can see him barricaded in there with maybe a

hostage staffer or two. The Capitol Police may need some assistance from the DC cops. He won't go without a fight.
