Your Daily Prescription for Laughs...
President George Bush, in an address to Congress last Tuesday,
unveiled his budget plan which includes a sizable tax cut, a repeal
of the estate tax, and a plan to pay down the national debt by two
trillion dollars within a decade. While the rest of the media was
caught up in covering the planned tax cut, DailyComix was sifting
through the plan, and we discovered some interesting pork in the
proposal...
- $400,000 dollars will go to Saddam Hussein for 'making Bush look
cool'.
- Two million dollars would be set aside for a study to determine
whether 'misunderestimated' is a word.
- 1.2 billion dollars will go to the defense department's new
'take a tank to work' program.
- $2.8 million goes to Texas for its yearly state-wide 'trailer
wash'.
- $556,000 would be set aside for Congress' annual 'Party Til
You Puke', sponsored by Ted Kennedy.
- The United States would have to get a second job washing
dishes until the debt was paid down, and it has learned its
lesson.
- A repeal of the estate taxes on all property residing in
Kennebunkport, Maine.
- $29.95 for a Big Mouth Billy Bass to hang in the Oval Office.
"It's clearly a budget. It's got a lot of numbers in it."
- George W. Bush (actual quote)
