While looking for something else, I stumbled on some Borowitz Report pieces from 2006-7, during W's administration. Here's one quote, intended as satire in those halcyon days of yore:
"Moments after the merger [between the White House and Fox] was announced, Mr. Snow introduced the latest member of the Bush Cabinet, Secretary of Defense Bill O'Reilly.
In his first official act as Defense Secretary, Mr. O'Reilly called CNN 'a gathering threat' and added the cable news network to the Axis of Evil."
Back then, the thought of naming a Fox "News" host as Secretary of Defense was seen as preposterous.
The other good quote I stumbled on is this:
"The White House spokesperson said that the president refused to set a formal timetable for his withdrawal from reality, but added that it was
realistic assume that Mr. Bush's exit from the real world would be complete by year's end: 'It helps that he's ninety percent of the way there already.' "
