Tax Rebate - Thank You

Thank You Mr. President - you know how to go out with style. Tip everyone on the way out the door. And you should, generously. After all the crap you put us through for the last seven years its the least you could do. Never mind you won't be around to pay the bill in the end. It's the thought that counts.

Thank You Congress - you know a good thing when you see it. Who could resist a win-win situation like this? Giving money to your constituency makes it look like you actually care about us and shows how serious you are about getting the economy rolling again. Plus, it easier than making harder choices on cutting federal spending and ending earmarks.

Thank You China - especially the Bank of China, for continuing to loan us the money to pay for all this, and more. Without our Big Brother in the Far East, we might actually have to make pay for something.

And last but not least, the future generations who someday will have to clean up the mess and pay the tab of their parents.

I only have one issue - stop calling it a rebate - its not free. We are not fools. We will pay this back.
