I need a new President!
"Even though I consider this stimulus package foolish and, most likely, ineffective, I have to admit that visions of a new flat screen TV began dancing in my head. Fortunately I came to my senses and realized I don't need a new TV, I need a new President! I will be giving a decent portion of our payment to Barack Obama."

A Real Economic Stimulus
"I converted my stimulus payment into American Eagle silver coins. I view the stimulus as a foolish, inflationary move that will only worsen the core problem facing our economy - a falling dollar. This is my way of voicing opposition to politicians."

Sharing the Wealth
"In one week, we leave for our first European adventure - to Barcelona, the Costa Brava and southern France. Dubya, you've spent the last several years insulting the Europeans, so we thought we'd give them a little cash with your joke of a "stimulus package". Adieu!"

What time is it? Tooth-hurty.
"Wisdom teeth. I get to pay someone to inflict pain on me just because I have funny teeth. Oh well. But thanks, Dubya, your money is covering the 20% of the bill that my dental plan doesn't. The rest of the money is going towards a pimped out blender that's going to keep me from starving after the procedure."
