I know how to save $86 billion!

Offer $1 billion in tax-free cash, immunity from prosecution...and 24/7 witness protection for the rest of their lives to anybody in the bush cabal who will turn government witness and spill the beans on the mis-administration.

3. Nah, it will have to be more like $7 billion
Then we can save eighty billion.

And it will garuntee we can get someone higher up.

Jesus, its a great idea, because it would work really well. These people would sell out their own mothers for a ten bucks.

4. Great idea, but
the Bushista Cabal members are, like their Great Leader, moral cowards who would never have the guts to stand up and admit their role in the wrongdoings. While they'd certainly be greedy for the money, and I think some may really struggle between greed and moral cowardice, I believe moral cowardice would always win out in the end.

5. Nah, their greed will overpower their moral cowardice
Because they won't look at it as a moral issue. It will be a moneymaking opportunity.

Besides, they would be selling out their allies, which in itself is an act of moral cowardace. So that part appeals to them.

6. That's a good way of looking at it,
and you're probably right. Won't happen as long as KKKarl and the rest of the Cabal is in charge, though.
