ALL SCI-FI

I want to throw this out to you guys and give you a chuckle or two.

I love the great series called The West Wing, in which we see a very "presidential" Martin Sheen and his admirable staff workers deal with the kinds of problems that all presidents must face!

With that in mind, today I came up with a funny idea for a comedic version of The West Wing.

This new series I'm describing focuses on a White House staff who work for a president who is arrogant, ignorant, egotistical, illogical, and completely inflexible whenever his knowledgeable advisors tell him that his position on any subject is completely wrong!

The series would delve deeply into the lives of these White House staffers, showing us that they are loyal Americans who are disparately trying to prevent their wacky Commander in Chief from doing things that would harm the country they all love.

Their efforts to accomplish this Herculean tasks — a terrifying "juggling act" with the fate of the country in the balance — would have a title which reflects both the insanity of these staff workers' jobs and the noble location where they're employed.

Bear in mind that the title is based on the famous work-place sign which people often posted in offices all over the country, the one that says, "You don't have to be crazy to work here . . . but it help!"

So, the name of this hypothetical series is —

The West Wingnuts
