The country has experienced a bipartisan failure, a March 7 petition said, because lawmakers have not been able to work together to create a National Dinosaur Clone Park.

"We believe one national park should immediately be fenced off and filled with dinosaur clones (no pterodactyls, trust us)," the petition said.

The petition demands one national park — open year round — filled with dinosaurs and optional woolly mammoths, and the creation of cloned dinosaurs.

"Why not take a leap into the future . . . from the past?" the petition asked. "Nothing could go wrong. No unforeseen consequences. Just educational fun for the Velociraptor, Tyrannosaurus rex and small tourist children."

President's reply: "No."

That is a Constitutionally correct answer. Congress would have to repeal the legislation, not the White House.
