It looks like everybody’s creating their own federal budget this year. Paul Ryan come up with the “Roadmap for America’s Future” budget which addresses the deficit by cutting spending. The Congressional Cabal of Progs has come up with what they call the “People’s Budget” (can you say “Proletarian Revolution”?) that proposes eliminating the deficit by raising taxes.
Some things never change, my friends
And while Big Guy really likes the Prog’s plan, he doesn’t want to be associated with communists so close to an election year so he’ll be presenting his own Solomonesque budget this afternoon. It will be a historical proposal that combines cuts (national defense and Medicare) with tax increases – on everything! Wow! When will the magic stop with this guy?
Anyway, since we needed a tag for our very own, “I’m in charge” of this “conversation about the budget” we had our crack acronym team work on it for days, and this is what the came up with: Big Guy’s “Stop the Deficit” budget, which leaves our tactics fairly open ended, thus providing the kind of wiggle room we like to have. And as fate would have it, this new budget theme works perfectly with the recently reworked official US Government symbol. Have you seen it yet?
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:
THE GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCED TODAY THAT IT IS CHANGING ITS EMBLEM FROM AN EAGLE TO A CONDOM BECAUSE IT MORE ACCURATELY REFLECTS THE GOVERNMENT’S POLITICAL STANCE.
A CONDOM ALLOWS FOR INFLATION, HALTS PRODUCTION, DESTROYS THE NEXT GENERATION, PROTECTS A BUNCH OF DICKS, AND GIVES YOU A SENSE OF SECURITY WHILE YOU’RE ACTUALLY BEING SCREWED.
H/T Fausta
I wasn’t sure how this CHANGE would go over with Big Guy, butt apparently he’s totally behind the CHANGE and HOPES that everyone else will get onboard too.
Maybe you noticed that he was wearing both the new SYMBOL and his new budget slogan at yesterday’s MilFam photo op? Here he is enjoying Lady M’s yada-yada-yada remarks:
Butt if we zoom in you can see how he’s already adopted the new symbol of his administration and adapted it to reflect his new budget theme:
I’ve got stuff I can wear on my lapel too, Generalissimo
So there it is: a symbolic representation of our country’s future economic viability.I’ve got a bad feeling about this.
