Axis of Jobseekers

David Frum, George W Bush's former speechwriter, has been out of work for some time now.
Unfortunately since the dizzy heights of his famous 'evil' speech Mr Frum has fallen from grace.
There's not much call for an evil doer speechwriter as President bush has learned to latch the words 'evil', 'doer' all by himself now.
Since those heady days Mr Frum has of course busied himself with writing speeches for other notable public figures. These have included the Royal family's Prince Harry, (Axis of Nazis), Prime Minister Tony Blair (Axis of Poodles) and the World society for Mathematicians (Axis of Axis').
But Mr Frum's luck may be in as another group has come calling for him.
Doctors the world over are clamoring for Mr Frum to pen another book like his last George W Bush inspired 'The Right Man'.
Are they big fans of his writing?
Or do they really believe in Mr Frum's assertion that Bush is indeed the right man?
"Not really," Doctor Makin Thusup said when This Might be Satire contacted him earlier today. "It's just that the book has such overwhelming vomit inducing qualities that we use it quite a lot in emergency. Whenever we get a O/D victim who can't induce vomitus themselves, we just get them to read a bit of 'The Right Man' and out it comes. Near floods the hospital with vomit."
But why the request for a new book?
"Oh, we're running out of new copies and at the moment our present copies of the book are starting to fall apart."
The phone line then went dead. A few seconds later the Doctor picked up the phone.
"Sorry. I'd just remembered a passage from the book and had to puke.
Bugger. I have to go. I've nearly flooded my entire house. Goodbye."
