We are at war on the never, never plan.
But there WAS the $300 check that I got after Bush got into office.

Remember how popular that was? "Elect me and I will send you $300." And it worked! (Along with a little voter fraud.)

What did you guys do with YOUR $300?

At the time, I was self-employed, so I just put it toward next year's taxes with my next estimated tax payment. And what do you know, I still needed to pay in!

Tax cut, my butt. It was just the first stunt of a stunt-driven presidency.
