I would like to thank the Bush administration
for paying for part of my new laptop computer. I still had to put in about 20% of my regular disability check to pay for the rest--so what if I have to give up my electricity or food--I spent the $300 I got and hope to hell that my sacrifice is duly acknowledged in the spirit of keeping our great nation going, no matter how much we're going to end up owing China. After all, we owe them quite a bit at this point, so a billion more is a spit in the bucket. Does this mean we have to keep our mouths shut when the Olympic games are underway?

2. Do you think I need to add
the sarcasm icon? Or is it evident in my post?

3. They borrowed another billion from China to give you $600?
Wow, the contractors really are raking it in. Geez, I'd be happy just to be a line item.

5. Nope
My "stimulus" check was only $300, since I'm so poor. I'm on disability, so I evidently don't contribute to our country anymore. So I have only "dependent" status with our administration. And yes--they borrowed money from China supposedly to get all those checks out to people.
