Who Else Obama Should Fire

By The Beachwood Bureau of Employment Affairs

Hopefully GM chief Rick Wagoner was just the start. Here's who we hope the president fires next.

* Jim Hendry. For one of the all-time worst trios of outfielder contracts (Alfonso Soriano, Kosuke Fukudome, Milton Bradley).

* Bill Gates. Because Windows still sucks.

* Howard Schultz. Because Starbucks' coffee still tastes like burnt toast.

* Mayor Richard M. Daley. For all the obvious reasons, though why object now?

* Brian L. Roberts. Because he's the CEO of Comcast. Approval ratings would skyrocket.

* Michael Jeffries. For being neither Abercrombie nor Fitch.

* Indra Nooyi. Pocketed $14.9 million in compensation in 2008 as reward for spending "several hundred million dollars" to tilt its logo.

* Oprah. Enough, already.

* Glenn Murphy. Enough, already.

* Jody Weis. Because Daley doesn't have the guts to do it himself.
