Stole This From A Friend

I'm sure you've already seen this email, but...

The pending stimulus package explained........................

Sometime this year, taxpayers will receive an Economic Stimulus Payment. This is a very exciting new program that I will explain using the Q and A format

"Q. What is an Economic Stimulus Payment?
"A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.

"Q. Where will the government get this money?
"A. From taxpayers.

"Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
"A. No, they are borrowing it from China. Your children are expected to repay the Chinese.

"Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
"A. The plan is that you will use the money to purchase a high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.

"Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China?
"A. Shut up."

Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by spending your stimulus check wisely

If you spend that money at Wal-Mart, all the money will go to China.

If you spend it on gasoline it will go to Hugo Chavez, the Arabs and Al Queda

If you purchase a computer it will go to Taiwan.

If you purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala (unless you buy organic).

If you buy a car it will go to Japan and Korea.

If you purchase prescription drugs it will go to India

If you purchase heroin it will go to the Taliban in Afghanistan

If you give it to a charitable cause, it will go to Nigeria.

And none of it will help the American economy.

We need to keep that money here in America. You can keep the money in America by spending it at yard sales, going to a baseball game, or spend it on prostitutes, beer (domestic ONLY), or tattoos, since those are the only businesses still in the US.


Take care.

Favorite Words For The Junior Senator From Illinios.

Sen (for now) Roland Burris told the media that he has been "transparent" throughout this entire BlogoRama mess.

President Oboma has told us from jump street that his administration would be "transparent".

To quote Diego Montoya

"I do mot think that word means what you think it means."

Thank you one again to The Princess Bride for giving me things to say.

I'm Waiting...

for the recovery that will be slow and painfull.
Wha???
I thought if we elected HopeyChangeyMessiahMan we would all have a bright and glorious future. No???
Oh well it's a good thing our kids won't have to ...
Wha???
Our kids too?

On a serious note.

As a teen in the mid-late Seveties, I remember a Moaist friend of mine telling me that we would be the first American Generation to not have it better than our parents. Lucky for us after Jimmah (massive Failure) Carter the Reagan years put the economy on something of an up swing. The late bommers did okay, and so did the kids born after us.
BUT now we are looking a a massive debt that will destroy the hopes dreams and savings accounts of the youth of today.

This is a dark time in America, but if we just run and hide and say it is too late, we give those who put us here even more power. Stop saying it is too late, stop saying that it is over, stop saying that the elections are oo far away and that America is doomed before that. Do something. Get involved. Keep reading. Keep asking questions and don't just listen to one point of view. There are many good men and women out there putting out the facts, just spend some time looking for them.
We will survive, and that will be our best revenge.
