1. W. is saying, "When I first dreamed all this tax credit stuff
up, I was thinking (like a good neo-con) of how maybe if we could get
the children to pay more taxes, we'd give them a lot of credit. It's
like Pay-Day Loans: having slaves, but someone else has got to
feed them. I mean, that's MY idea for the new millennium. We get
more taxes to give to corporations and stuff and we give the kids
all the credit they want. . . . Oh, look, Karl's running up here just
cause I strayed from my prepared speech a tenny bit. . . . Hey, Karl.
don't worry. I got 'em eating outta the palm of my hand!"

3. Funny....does it say $3 on that check?
I think that about sums up what this is worth to real people.

6. I am still trying to see the jobs and growth
Not in my neck of the woods. Unemployment up and growth going down.


AAAAHHH 21 century America


I am glad I got a list of soup kitchens

7. so, there you have it ... advance on your 2003 tax form ...
... by next April, you won't even realize you got something ... and, by you, we don't mean all of you, just some of you, and you know who you are, the ones we're targeting for 2004's vote ... you don't just get deductions for kids under 17, but credit for them to, and that's off the bottomline ... so, if you don't have children, tough luck ... you're probably some tree hugger or something anyway ... and, never mind that this is only good for like 3 years, and then, it goes back down to $600, and, then, back to $500 ... by that time, things will be so screwed up and I'll be out of here ... you're going to need a few extra bucks for some happy meals or put gas in the SUV or to pay increasing local and state tax or new tires when you hit a few pot holes from lack of services ... I wanted 3 large shells and a large pea up here to see if you can follow where this is going, but we just settled for this big here non-negotiable check reproduction ...

8. Now as the day gives silent way to night,
And DU'ers by the score douse screen and lights
And gat them home to their repast, spirits bright,
Then come forth their colleagues of the night
With minds aflame to set the CAPTION right!

:kick:
