Domestic Policy Debate Enters Critical Phase

 

 

As summer draws to a close, President Obama asks his two girls, Malia and Sasha, to join him at the kitchen table to discuss some family policy…

 

 

President:  Girls, you know the summer comes to a close this weekend, and therefore I hope you agree that we cannot further extend the very late-night bedtimes that you enjoyed for the past few months.

Sasha:  Daddy, I have to disagree with your point.  These late nights are  very stimulative for our growth, as many great TV shows do not come on until late at night.

President:  Over the past summer, we have granted you the additional freedoms that come with early adulthood and instituted a very liberal bedtime policy. This bedtime policy was instituted to stimulate your non-academic endeavors.   However, Labor Day is the deadline for this policy, and we will not extend your late night privileges any longer.   I think that 9:30 is a fair bedtime given both your ages.

Malia:  Daddy, first and foremost, I am three years older than Sasha and will never consent to having the same bedtime as my younger sister. 9:30  is simply ridiculous! I am NOT budging from 12:30.

Sasha:  Daddy, there is no debate.  You are absolutely wrong.  I say 12:30 as well.

President:   Labor Day is our deadline, and this must be worked out by then.  I agree 9:30 might have been a little too early, how about 10:00 for Sasha and 10:30 for Malia.

Sasha:  Daddy, you are not neogtiating fairly and I don’t accept any of your premises.  I’m leaving!

President:  Sasha, please come back.  Come on, Sasha, please come back to the kitchen table.

Malia: I cannot believe you’re just sitting here as Sasha walks out.

Prsident:  I will deal with Sasha later, but I think 10:30 is fair for a 13-year-old.

Malia:  Dad, I am not giving up Jon Stewart who comes on 11:00. It’s the only way I get my news!  And you know I have to see the Letterman monologue! I always watch his first guest.  That takes us to midnight…and then Sasha and I usually have a little snack before bed.  By the time we brush our teeth and put on our pajamas it will be 12:30!

President:  OK, tell Sasha it is 12:30.  I am glad we had a chance to discuss the matter and come to a fair compromise.
