Oh my god. This was absolutely hilarious. This is one of the funniest stories I have ever read. RIP George.

I love your work. I rarely leave reviews, but "The Rose Garden Conspiracy" nearly had me in tears, I was laughing so hard. You have an awesome vocabulary, and you use it well. Your story lines are very creative, as well. Great job!

I am having a Moment. Go away, Stooges.

BWAA the second!

BWAA!

No way, I think she's an evil sorceress. She is so not my soul sister.

*So Much Love*

PM me later and I promise I'll give you an actual review. Must hurry. More chapters ahead.

So many reasons to love this, that I can't spare the time to list them because I have to go to the next chapter-CJ!

Yes! Yes! Yes! *cheers loudly* I CARE! This is, what? *checks* well, years old, anyways, and I really want to find out what happens next. That's a kind of magic in itself.

The President will care too.

****it, Sam! WHY? THE PRESIDENT CAN WAIT! *thinks about it* Uhh, well...

Yowsers, so funny yet wee angsty. Grinny.

Damn, must have worn out my persuasive powers on Republicans.

So much love. It's so much fun to hear Josh's cranky-thoughts.

I enjoy your sense of humor and style very much-just wish your beta worked a little on punctuation.

Absolutely hilarious. I was laughing constantly. Your dialogue is dead-on perfect, and your descriptions of the characters' thoughts are brilliant and amazingly well-paced. Really professionally written too - you are, in short, a really good writer. Your imagery is hilarious too - "CJ and Sam rush into the bull-pen at a rate of knots, grab Leo, who lets out a startled squawk, and haul him bodily towards CJ's office." I just laughed myself sick at that image for about a minute. I really can't find anything to complain about in this story, other than a couple of British(or other European?) phrases where the characters would use American ones. ANYhow, great, great, great story, please keep writing!

Fabulous! Absolutely Fabulous! I laughed from beginning to end. You've got the characterization down perfectly for all of the staff. The rhythm of the dialog / narration is written in outstanding West Wing style. Plus I love the last sentence. "RIP George. Thanks, buddy." It's the perfect button to end the story with.

Great job!

Two images are going to stay with me for a long time

But I keep being distracted by images of my chinchilla hanging out of a helicopter with a bandanna on his head…
