IT WOULD BE EASIER IF I WAS A DICTATOR

POLITICAL CAPITAL

By Mad Plato

“It would be easier if I was a dictator.”

George W. Bush

President Bush announced at his first post-election press conference that his win gave him… political capital!

And he planned to spend it!

Wasn’t that big of him?

The commander-in-chief has already taken a lot of capital away from the American people and spent it.

Chasing after non-existent WMD wasn’t cheap. A duplicitous shock and awe pre-emptive war without a plan to win the peace is EXORBITANT.

The deficits EXPAND while taxes are being reduced [at least for the very rich!]

Where in the world is the capital going to come from to pay for the rising deficits?

For the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?

For future fighting in Iran, North Korea or Syria?

For more and more missiles and bombs?

For Education?

For Health Care?

For Social Security?

Where is that money going to come from?

Yep. You and me. The rich bastards have got it made in the sun.

Baby boomers, don’t plan on retiring too soon.

This president needs more of your capital.

He already has your heads!
