CASH FOR TRASH
Keeping Mitt’s dream alive
Mitt Romney, the most mannequin-like of the current crop of Republican presidential candidates, needs your help. Up until now, Mitt’s core fundraising strategy has been to raid his own multi-million dollar piggy bank, and loan his campaign money. But apparently, that’s not enough anymore. So Mitt wants you to sell your possessions on eBay, and give him the money.
Seriously.
Won’t you please sell off your worldly goods so Mitt can keep the dream alive? What dream? The dream that anyone in this country can grow up to be president… provided, of course, that that anyone’s father was an important politician, like Mitt’s, and he’s a millionaire, like Mitt. Call it the George W. Bush version of the American Dream.
