I Call It “Spendthriftiness!” —G.W. Bush

“To do what we are doing in this budget to our children, cutting their health care funds, decreasing opportunity, simply so we can pay for tax cuts and a war in Iraq is beyond belief, and we need to reverse it.” —Tom Allen


Hi. My name is George Bush and I think I’m getting close to bankrupting the country. Our economy is booming. I know we owe an awful lot of money to China. Heh, heh. Well, let’s see ’em try to collect. In the meantime I'm trying to bring the rest of the world down to their economic level so everyone will be the same, see. A Mexican worker will be the same as an American worker. I mean, they’ll both be getting the same pay for the same work. That way they’ll be equal. Everybody wins! It’s a win, win, win, win situation! Even the Iraqi worker will have been pulled up by his boot straps.

Of course the rich will run the world as usual. Gotta have tax cuts for the wealthy so they can create all these equal-paying jobs. Hot damn, am I good! Move over Alan Greenspan. Mister Economic genius is here.
