At McSweeney's.2000 Election
George Bush and Al Gore meet in the squared circle for the championship title. It's a back-and-forth match. Gore gains the upper hand and hits his finishing move, the Global Warmer. But, as Gore goes for the cover, William "the Chief" Rehnquist rushes to the ring carrying a steel chair. With the referee distracted by Laura Bush, Rehnquist knocks Gore over the head with the chair. Bush goes for the cover and wins the belt. The show ends with an incredulous announcer screaming, "George W. Bush is champion, but I don't know if he deserves it!"
