OT, but related to the “stimulus”.

The Post Office announced a hike in stamps from .42 to .44 in May. I can hear them now:

Postmaster General: “How are we doing financially.”
Accountant: “Very poorly.”
Postmaster General: “Really? Why?”
Accountant: “Well, anything really important is sent FedEx or UPS, and most people are paying their bills online, so all we’ve really got left is junk mail and credit card offers….and with the economy, well, we’re losing those credit card things as well.”
Postmaster General: “Well, I know exactly what to do - I’m a marketing genius.”
Accountant: “What’s that sir?”
Postmaster General: “We raise prices.”

And these are the types of folk who want us to believe they can get us out of this recession.

Spit.

These are the people who want to take over your health care.
