Economics, Schmec-o-nomics, Sound Bites
So with all this economic stuff going on I figured I should work on a few sound bites in case anyone asks me about this crap. I bought a set of index cards at Walgreens yesterday and put the questions on one side and my sound bite on the other (an old trick that the study-heads use to do while I was throwing spitballs at them high school). So here’s what I got so far:
Q: What is your position on government bailouts of private corporations?
A: The Viet Cong clamped electric prods on my nuts. Fuck off.
Q: How does your tax plan address, like, the economy and stuff?
A: The economy is hurting America. I hereby declare war on the economy and will order a surge. A surge on the economy!
Q: Why are you such a dick? (Not really an economic quesiton, but one that comes up a lot still)
A: I am not a dick. I’m a maverick. If you’ve ever seen Top Gun, Tom Cruise was a Maverick too and I don’t think anyone would ever call Tom Cruise a dick. I am a Maverick and Palin is my Goose, except for the part where Goose dies. Oh sorry, was that a spoiler for you? I guess I am a dick sometimes. Interview over! (and this is where I aim my laser pointer at the reporters eyes)
