Next Time, Put It In a Sack and Set It On Fire.
You guys know Bob Perry, the super duper rightwing guy who got his start in politics by funding Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. Bob Perry, of course, never served in the military and couldn’t find truth with a compass, Tonto, and a bloodhound named Google.
But, that whole thing gave him a rush so now instead of spending money on his home construction business so he might build good houses or paying his workers a fair wage, Bob continues to buy politicians. I mean, he got such a bargain with George Bush.
This election cycle he totally wasted $10 million plus on trying to elect Romney. I say “plus” because some figures are still coming in. It seems he also wasted another million trying to defeat Jon Tester in Montana and Heidi Heitkamp in North Dakota.
Don’t ya just love it when that happens?
It’s Friday so it must be lunch at the Dairy Queen with Alfredo.
But … but … but … JOB CREATORS! Arrgggle barrrrgle ….
These guys can’t Go Galt soon enough.
1$10 million to not elect Romney. $1 million to not elect the senators of Montana and N Dakota. Don’t we give big tax breaks to the wealthy because they are the job creators? Sounds like Bob Perry is doing just the opposite. Hey Bob! If you give me $11 million I’ll fail to create a lot more than 3 jobs for you. I guarantee it.
2Karma is such a sweet, sweet b&%ch!
3Do you think at some point he will get tired of wasting money and quit politics? Sigh, ya, me neither.
4He must have created jobs for advertising salesmen, political consultants, Fox News “analysts” and such ilk. I s’pose they spent the windfall on … something. See, tinkle-down economics works 🙂
5If money equals speech, this guy was well-nigh incomprehensible.
6I knew the guy who was behind the Swift Boat thing was going to get his some day and never be able to sit down or bend again. There is a goddess!!!
7Wonder if it ever occurred to Perry that he, Sheldon, the Kochs, et al managed to inject a stimulus into the swing states that improved the economy enough to elect Obama and a bunch of Democrats? Naaaah.
8Hmm. Well, you know, having a bunch of politicians and media folks in town buying sandwiches and stuff is bound to help the economy. TexasEllen may have hit on something there.
