| Is there anybody with a triple digit IQ who thinks |
|
a McCain administration can balance the Federal budget by the end of their first term?
Well, that's what Palin is claiming on the stump. Crunch the numbers for us Sarah, or forever more be considered an intellectual cow just chewing on the Republican cud.

"empty eater" like the older person on social security, poor people, disabled.
Lock up most of us and make us work for our two meals of runny cabbage soup a day.
Discontinue schools, from day care centers to universities. Hospitals will be far more efficient when they get rid of those pesty older people on MediCare. De-fund libraries, public transportation, and start really charging individuals for the cost of mailing items. (Corporations will be exempted of course)
Gated communities will still have police protection, but other areas won't. Same with fire protection.

| 8. Another quick fix to secure a surplus budget - this couple in Elgin |
|
Illinois overparked at the city parking lot. And were issued parking citation for over one million dollars.
It turns out that the meter reader put their license number in the area for fine amounts.
But if everyone with a parkig citation had to pay like that, our deficit would be over in an instant, right?

| 10. If I were an independant, this would be my number one reason to vote Obama. Thank you Bill Clinton. |
|
Georgie likes to cut taxes and spend more.
Yeah, that makes sense. :wtf:
Obama will restore peace and prosperity to the world like Bill did in the 90's. You have to balance the checkbook... you can't always use the credit card (I'm looking at you, George - thanks for funding your war with Chinese dollars at the expense of the American people for generations to come).
