George W Bush and Obama were at a meeting of all living POTUSs at Camp
David once. They were talking alone when they saw a bottle. Obama
asked Bush what it was but Bush said he didn't remember seeing it. So
they opened it together.

*POOF* out came a genie.

"Thanks for releasing me. The 'Three Wishes' thing is a myth, you get
one. But since you are both here I'll give you each one. But there
are two conditions. First, you must make a wish for the people of the
nation and not yourselves. Second, my magic is not perfect. If you
wish for money for the people the richest 1% will get twice what
everyone else gets. Agreed?"


Both agreed since they were not in a position to argue. After a coin
flip, Bush went first.


"I'd like the people of the USA to get $1million for each family.
Even though the top 1% will get twice as much it is better than
nothing."


*POOF* it happened.

It was then Obama's turn.

"I want you to take half of what you just gave the bottom 99% away
from them."

You are a devisive, goofy little cockroach, eh? Imagine a world where
bush would give away money to families. Does the sky in your world
have stripes, or polka dots?

1. Bush did give a tax cut to all income-taxpayers. What color is
the sky in YOUR world?
2. You miss the point. Obama would rather hurt everyone just to "get
back" at the top 1%. He has shown this in that he would rather raise
taxes on them which hurts the economy than leave them lower which
helps it.

Very lame but thanks for proving my point: Repugliars have nothing to
offer but fantasy.

Your story, not mine. His tax cut didn't give me a million dollars.
Stop being silly.

Your point was not that subtle. It just doesn't make sense other than
to illuminate your ideology. My tax cut under Obama is larger than it
was under Bush. You know, if the top 1% reinvested their Bush era cuts
back into America, we might not be in the shape we are today. Sadly,
though, it's just another case of trickle down economics failing.

they did reinvest it, or don't you remember the economy growing
2003-2006?

$1million would become nothing.
