REDMOND, Wash. - Aug. 13, 2007 -- In direct response to accusations made by
the Department of Justice, the Microsoft Corp. announced today that it will
be acquiring the federal government of the United States of America for an
undisclosed sum.

"It's actually a logical extension of our planned growth", said Microsoft
chairman Bill Gates, "It really is going to be a positive arrangement for
everyone".

Microsoft representatives held a briefing in the oval office of the White
House with U.S. President George Bush, and assured members of the press that
changes will be "minimal". The United States will be managed as a wholly
owned division of Microsoft. An initial public offering is planned for July
of next year, and the federal government is expected to be profitable by "Q4
2013 at latest", according to Microsoft president Steve Ballmer.

In a related announcement, George Bush stated that he had "willingly and
enthusiastically" accepted a position as a vice president with Microsoft,
and will continue to manage the United States government, reporting directly
to Bill Gates. When asked how it felt to give up the mantle of executive
authority to Gates, Bush smiled and referred to it as "a relief". He went on
to say that Gates has a "proven track record", and that U.S. citizens should
offer Gates their "full support and confidence". Bush will reportedly be
earning several times the $400,000 annually he has earned as U.S. president,
in his new role at Microsoft.

Gates dismissed a suggestion that the U.S. Capitol be moved to Redmond as
"silly", though did say that he would make executive decisions for the U.S.
government from his existing office at Microsoft headquarters.
Gates went on to say that the House and Senate would "of course" be
abolished. "Microsoft isn't a democracy", he observed, "and look how well
we're doing".

When asked if the rumored attendant acquisition of Canada was proceeding,
Gates said, "We don't deny that discussions are taking place".

Microsoft representatives closed the conference by stating that United
States citizens will be able to expect lower taxes, increases in government
services and discounts on all Microsoft products.

It's time to clear the record. The images we've all seen of Bill Gates
are fakes used for marketing purposes. His legal name is actually
Richard Stripinski and he lives in a little town in Southern Mexico.

In his younger days before plastic surgery he looked like this:
