Throwing the public's money in the trash...I've taught you well.

What? This much? I'm never going bird hunting with that guy again!
That one has my name on it...Really, George told me to come down and pick mine up.
So this is my payback for pulling the trigger on a lawyer?
BREAKING NEWS- DISGRUNTLED FEDERAL EMPLOYEE GOES POSTAL !
One check, two checks, three checks, four checks. I cant stop. I love to count checks. Ah ha, ha............
After the printing George will bury this in a time capsule and mark it as one of the most memorable moments in his presidential history – years later it will be uncovered and used as a urinal "God Bless America"
Dick Cheney patiently awaits his own check for $1,200 for him and Mrs. Cheney; a little pocket change considering his eleven million.

That's right! Hillary wanted some time alone with this machine, something about needing money for campaigning!
Pull my finger, America, and you'll get plenty of gas.
Roll over checks! I need to dip in my vault.
See! Each check says, "Backed by the full faith and credit of the Chinese Government."
maybe we could make president bush quit with this paper?
This my gentlemen is the final nail in the economy coffin!
Eenie Meenie MINE!
See – right there – yes – that screw was made in America – who says we need to take another look at NAFTA – oh wait a minute, haha, that's not a screw, my bad – it is a note that says "You're Screwed!"
And this machine was found in Iraq. We call it the WMD. Weapon of mass distribution.
Following in the footsteps of Bob Dole, VP Cheney shoots a commercial touting his favorite male enhancement machine.
Does anyone really think these checks will actually help our Economy – It won't even put a dent in most Americans heating bills! Wow George – you're brilliant!
I said PRINT ME MY LOVELY CHECKS PRINTER!
"IF YOU DON'T HAVE BREAD TO EAT, EAT COOKIES"
I think I just saw my check – no wait, that was George's
The exit is over there, Hillary.
Wait a minute! You mispelled that one. It's Osama Ben Laden.
I could use a little stimulant, myself!
Pull my finger, America!
That's what I call chump change
This looks like a good enough length for George to color with.
i wonder what will happen if i put my head in the printer.
Dick Cheney shows off the final stage of the Bush administration's Rube Goldberg machine. This is where the smoke and mirrors emerge.
I see you hiding behind those checks, George.
One hundred and thirty Americans shiver in fear as they hear Dick Cheney utter the word "shot" when making reference to them.
"Like I said, one for me, one for Iraq, one for me, one for Iraq, one for me, one for Iraq"
That's a lot of money! Enough to pay for the Iraq War for another 23 seconds!

No Dick, those aren't stimulus checks for Iraq. They're for us. You know, The United States Of Amercia, land of the free! By the way, yours isn't in there either, you've spent it already.
The checks to Haliburton were about thaaaat much bigger.

I can't quite put my finger on why these stimulus checks are just another political gimmick.
maybe we could bribe the Americans by giving them free paper so they will vote for the republican named John Macain
