Happy days are here again: Secret GOP rebuilding plan unveiled

Guest Post by Morbo

This week, I was given a top-secret Republican Party strategy document by a highly placed source who must remain unnamed. This is the GOP plan to get the Bush presidency back on track and help the Republicans sweep November’s elections. As usual, it is bold and visionary. It lays out the problems facing America today and offers specific, creative solutions.

I knew you would want to see it. Here are some excerpts.

Problem: High gas prices
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: If people have more money, they will be able to afford the high cost of gas.

Problem: Chaos in Iraq
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Iraqis living in America will send the money they get from their tax cut home, thus boosting the Iraqi economy and ending the violence.

Problem: Nukes in Iran
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Iranians living in America will send the money they get from their tax cut home, thus boosting the Iranian economy and ending the need to threaten with nukes.

Problem: Same-sex marriage
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Gays will be so busy buying things with their tax cut money that they won’t have time to get married.

Problem: Gulf Coast still vulnerable to hurricanes
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: People can use their tax cut money to fortify their homes or just move away.

Problem: 45 million Americans without health care
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: People can use their tax cut money to see a doctor.

Problem: Annoying youth fashions
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Parents can use the tax cut money to buy their kids some normal clothes.

Problem: Global warming
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Tax cut money can be used to buy air conditioners and invest in desert property, soon to be beachfront.

Problem: Teens having sex
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Kids have sex because they are bored. If their parents have more money to give them, young people will go to the movies more often.

Problem: Annoying “muzak” in grocery stores
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Americans can use tax cut money to buy iPods and hear the music they want.

Problem: Abortion still legal
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: With more money in their pockets, people will stop aborting their children.

Problem: Not enough tax cuts
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: Everyone likes tax cuts. Tax cuts are fun. We need more tax cuts…sweet, delicious tax cuts…ohhhh….

That’s it in a nutshell. I should point out that the plan also includes some new tax cuts.

Problem: Mortgaging our children’s future
Solution: Tax cut
Rationale: With our great improvements in education, the creation of higher paying jobs, the influx of immigrants, the conversion of corn fields into energy plants, future generations will be more than able to lift themselves out of the incredible hole we are digging for them. They will praise us for living like we were the last generation on earth, saving them from the hazards of affluence, and helping them to regain the American grit needed to live shorter, desperate lives with lowered standards. Leading the stampede to the global economy and bringing global standards to future Americans.

  • You forgot,

    Problem: Massive deficit caused by Iraq war
    Solution: Tax cut!
    Rationale: The faster we spend the federal government into bankruptcy, the sooner we can abolish it entirely!

    I mean, really, that is their goal. It’s completely transparent. Here comes Corporate Feudalism.

  • Problem: Illegal immigration
    Solution: Tax cut
    Rationale: Mexicans living in America will send the money they get from their tax cut home, thus boosting the Mexican economy and ending illegal immigration.

  • Getting back to the serious consequences of this one-size-fits-all policy, if I was a business owner (say, in Big Oil), can any of you guess what I would do in response to a tax cut for the people?

    Can’t guess?

    Raise my prices. That’s what you do when people have more money to spend.

  • Morbo,

    I believe that was classified information you released. The GOP plan will never work if the people know where they’re being led. Traitor.
