Get ready for boom times

“My share of the federal tax cut largesse comes to $2 a week. Don't try to stop me now!”

“Liquor's On Geo!!!!!!”

“Geobeet's off to REI to buy a Clif Bar. Woo Hoo!”

“NO!!! Save that money for beer!!”

“All right, Geo! Jump start the economy with that $2.00!”

“"We're all Republicans now
We're all Republicans now ..."”

“My loan against my children's future is pretty sweet. It's about time those #&%!$ing brats did something for me.”

“I agree, violin- let those young punks bail out the social security system so we can enjoy retirement! Most of them don't even backpack!”

“None of this is helping me figure out how to spend my two smackers so I can get the economy rolling again. Seems to me it's my patriotic duty to spend it now and get things rolling. In a couple of days we have to get ship yards calling back workers, steel mills running at full capacity, and Hummers in every garage.”

“Geobeet do you think the country could handle the shock of you spending it all at once or should you spend a little at a time?”

“"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.

“yeha

Hummers in every garage”

“geobeet is lieing. He knows for a fact that his refund was $4. Stop trying to discredit it. You got twice as much as you are telling everyone else.



So go buy 2 clif bars.”

“Hey they're advertising humongasaurus Cadillac Escalades in our paper today for $50 grand! The pitch is you can write it off your business taxes since it's over 6,000 lbs! OINK!”

“Geobeet gas prices will be taking a jump soon. You can just give to the oil companies.”

“See, now that's what I'm talking about Must Hike. Just what Dick Cheney needs. The timing is exquisite. Turn them wildcatters loose!”

“who needs public education when you get that $2 Geo, who, tell me who?”

“Just last Friday I was listening to The Diane Rehm Show (WAMU 88.5) at 10 AM (Friday News Roundup).

She usually has a decent cross section of political points of view.
And she takes all kinda callers.

A caller asked for comment on that tax write off for vehicles over 6,000 pounds.

William Kristol poo-pooed any notion that it was a reward for wealthy "Canyonero" owners saying that "no family SUVs weigh THAT much.....I have a Suburban and yada, yada, yada.."

No one called him on that lie.

I couldn't call and berate that sissy, I was driving my 3,000 pound Escape.”

“Hey y'all are distorting and belittling... It's not hard to find Cliff bars for 99 cents. So, two bucks a week is going to buy more than two cliff bars a week.”

“Actually, the biggest thing Bush has done to jump start his economy is have a war. My guess is that net costs will be more than 1,000 per taxpayer. Now thats a stimulus!

(and what's more, he gets to talk like the war slowed the economy)”

“Trader Joe's has Clif Bars for $.99”

“Decisions, decisions. Cliff bar or gasoline. Let's see, I have enough for a gallon and about a pint, so that should get me, hmmmm, Wow, 28 miles on the open road. Cliff bars, retch!”

“Save you dough for cat food and Spam.......you're gonna need it.”

“Save up? Why you, ... That's unAmerican!”

“Geobeet that’s funny when we were buying our house and going through the process of getting a mortgage the person taking our information asked the question, how much are you monthly car payments? I said we don’t have any car payments we own them out right. He then puts down his pen looks up at us and says, no car payments why that’s just un-American.”

“True MH, the entire economy is based on spending money you don't have. So when you do have it, it's absolutely essential that you get rid of it. We could end up like Somalia or Afghanistan if we don't go out and spend our tax cut money. Then we'd have to raise goats, and what then?”

“i think my share is $0.00.”

“Doesn't matter jmitch. You still have to do your part. Sacrifice for your country! (background music comes up: "Battle Hymn of the Republic")”

“My auto mechanic, who recently took an early retirement, is going to reopen his shop next Tuesday. This was good news.”

“See that? And my money's not even in my checking account yet. What a great country!”

“A good mechanic is a good thing to have, NS. I just gave mine $825 over the past two weeks. But, he did a great job and that little baby is running nice!!”

“Actually, you better save that $2 for your natural gas bill....”

“Tilt, you hit the bell!

Natural gas will go up $2 a day, gasoline will go back up, ... everybody will raise their prices $2 a week, we'll all end up deeper in the hole, and the economy will still tank.”

“Two dollars a week is almost 1/10th the increase in my health insurance premiums this year.

Good thing we didn't blow those two bucks on developing a more rrational health care delivery system.”

“America is circling the drain.

Like a drunk reeling along 14th and P in D.C.”

“Now now Tom T, let's not be a nay-saying evil-doer. Spend now and do your duty!”

“OK, Big Daddy, I'll get some beer tonight.”

“That's a good little American. You can pass out knowing you've done your part.”

“$2 a week works out to be one Pilsner Urquell about every five days... Yippee!

Czech, Please!”

“Mmmmmmmmmmmm, Pilsner Urquell!”

“My neighbor has a hummer, but it seems to be too wide to fit in the garage. It is always in the driveway. Or maybe they want to make sure that we all know that they have a hummer.”

“Geobeet, I think that you should use the two bucks to buy produce at a farmstand.

Everyone should go out and buy their produce from a local farmer. Support your community's farms and we will have fewer construction backhoes tearing up the fields.”

“Ya'll would b!tch if ya were hung with a new rope. Any little bit the government will let me hold onto is fine by me.

I'm not a bit surprised that many who railed and cried against a tax cut would now b!tch that it's too small. Typical.”

“Nigal = No sense of humor”

“LOL”

“I didn't rail against the tax cut Nigal. If you think I did, your reading skills need work.”

“Anyway, the point is that the tax cut is supposed to jump start the economy. That's what we were told by President George. So I guess my $2 is gonna jump start the economy. What part of that is hard to understand?”

“It's a socialist liberal communist evil-doer populist pinko plot to undermine the administration.”
