Coming In A Little Short
On Tuesday, the Whitehouse acknowledged that the budget
deficit was ballooning out of control. It has now reached
$455 billion and climbing. However they were quick to point
out that:
| • |
Budget projections for 2004 are based
on information obtained from British intelligence,
so it’s all likely horseshit anyway. |
| • |
The shortfall should be partially covered by the
sale of that extra enriched uranium stockpile to
some guy in Saudi Arabia. |
| • |
The Department of Defense gift shop has reported
that total sales of the 55 most wanted Iraqis playing
cards have brought in anywhere from $15 to $20.
|
| • |
We just invaded Iraq. Iraq has a shit load of
oil. Oil costs something like $20 for just one barrel.
Bonus. |
| • |
Whitehouse press secretary Ari Fleicher’s
replacement, Scott McClellan will have to start
at the bottom of the pay scale, saving the executive
branch valuable wages. |
| • |
Remember that money we’re sending Africa
to fight aids? How much does it cost to cancel a
check? |
| • |
The White House is seriously considering forcing
three of the nine supreme court judges into early
retirement. |
| • |
Washington provokes North Korea. North Korea nukes
California. Washington collects the insurance money. |
| • |
Scott McClellan is short, but people seem to like
him anyway. |
