Da Da DaaaaaAAAAAA-I am BUDGETMAN!


I sent up my budget man to the Congress, and he says, here's how we're going to reduce the deficit in half by five years

2. LOL...I started making up words to a song entitled "Budget Man" to the
tune of "Rocket Man". MrG and I had too much fun by far last night. :hi:

4. Here's a try
He padded my pockets last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine PM
And I’m gonna be hiiiiiiiiiigh as a debt by then
I miss reality so much I miss my wife
It’s lonely here in outer space
On such a timeless flight

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
Till simple math comes round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a BUDGET MAN
BUDGET MAN burning out his cash up here alone

Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it’s cold as hell
And there’s no one there to raise them if you did
And all this science I don’t understand
It’s just my job five days a week (8-5 with an hour for lunch and a nap)
A BUDGET MAN A BUDGET MAN

And I think it’s gonna be a long long time...

13. The way the headline played for me...
On this thread--I saw the shrub dancing around in Ray-Bans singing "I'm a budget man" to the tune of "Soul Man".

17. OMG Here goes
Brains were turned to mush
At the Delta Kappa rush

Then he took cocaine
And was criminally insane

Nobody wants him
They just don't fucking vote

(da da da da da da da)

Numbers out of hats
Sharpies fixing deficits

He will lie and then
BUDGETMAN lives again

8. This was a hysterical moment last night
I was punching my poor husbands arm screaming and laughing about Budget Man. Love your visual. Thanks for that. Now we need an ongoing daily Budget Man Cartoon. Maybe Bush was going for the Accountant Vote here.

9. Image from the first page of google images
pure luck really.

My wife is going to be sick of me standing up hands on hips and decreeing that "I AM BUDGETMAN" by oh about 7 PM tonight.

That was my first note on the debate last night on my cheat sheet.
