Fiscal Cliff Survival Pack

I wanted to let you all know that earlier today I received my “Fiscal Cliff Survival Pack” from the White House.

It contained:

  •  A parachute
  •  An ‘Obama Hope and Change’ bumper sticker
  •  A ‘Bush’s Fault’ yard sign
  •  A ‘Blame Boehner’ poster
  •  A ‘Tax the Rich’ banner
  •  An application for unemployment
  •  An application for food stamps
  •  A prayer rug
  •  A letter assigning my debt to my grandchildren
  •  And if that was not enough, there was a coupon for a machine that blows smoke up my ass.

Everything was made in “China” and all directions were in Spanish.

Ben Sasse, Nebraska Republican for Senate, calls on Leader McConnell and DC Republicans – who make $172,000/year – to show some leadership and give up their taxpayer funded ObamaCare subsidy.
