Conservatives to the Rescue

[Elidor]

Already feeling the ill effects of that Obama economic collapse? Lost your job? Lost your health care? Lost your home? Never fear. Conservative heroes are here to save the day! They have the right stuff, my friends, to put this economy back in the black (uh, from a balance sheet perspective, that is).

What's their solution? It's so simple I don't know why you haven't thought of it already. Cut taxes. Especially cut taxes on capital gains, cut taxes on rich dead people, and cut taxes on corporations. Do these things and the invisible hand of FREE ENTERPRISE (not to be confused with the Starship Enterprise) will save the day.

At the risk of belaboring the point, the republicans never shut up about cutting taxes, so this is pretty much a sun-rises-in-the-east type of thing, but it's amazing to see them saying all this as pieces of Wall Street tumble down about their heads. The solution to all our problems is to keep doing what we've been doing, to "stay the course," one might say.

Conservatives aren't always wrong, just the vast majority of the time. I give daily thanks to any creator that might exist that our country will only be held hostage by these idiots and assholes for a few more weeks.
