Monday Presidential Boxing Lesson Goes Well

WASHINGTON - The President's Monday senior staff boxing lesson today went "much better than previous sessions."
This week the President intended to focus on upper-cut body punches, but was, once again, side-tracked by staffers' questions about current legislative and policy issues. However, today, Senior Advisor David Axelrod, actually asked the President a question about the most effective stance for delivering a right upper-cut.
"Normally, Axelrod just sits there staring," said one White House advisor. "Today he actually woke up and asked something related to the [boxing] lesson. I was floored!"
The President started the Monday boxing lessons during the initial drafting sessions of health-care reform, and despite the staff's unanimous indifference, continued the practice ever since.
