GOP gives $500 trillion tax cut to 120,000 families

ravdin · 26th October 2012, 03:12 PM

I learned today that the GOP gave a $500 trillion tax cut to 120,000 families- an average of $4.2 billion per family!

Clearly the situation is far worse than I thought- I had no idea that we could have had a $484 trillion surplus by now.

It's Biden. He meant to say 500 Gajillion.

That's okay. Chuck Grassley introduced Romney at a rally by saying that it's time for a new president.....Obama.

I agree with Grassley. We can't afford that $500 Gajillion cut.

Didn't Gajillion destroy Tokyo and then lose a fight to Godzilla?

That's the trouble with these Washington politicians- they don't understand the difference between a trillion and a gajillion.
