Yours seems to be about bankrupt. The funny in this is the opportunity to join in the jocularity. I like the Daffy Duck idea. The public is Elmer Fudd. The Dems are Bugs Bunny. The 'Pubs are Daffy. Rabbit season! Duck Season! Blam! You're dethpicable! The Dems created this mess, but they keep pasting the 'Pubs with it. Daffy turns his beak back around and says, "Let's try that again! Rabbit season...." Hilarious! (And I'm a 'Pub!) To Lynn and Candide, we’re organizing a bailout to get you two senses of humor. Yours seems to be about bankrupt.

I grew up watching them and Groucho and his brothers were good men. Bozo the clown would have been a better fit for this story, or Gomer Pile, Daffy Duck, etc. ..

Firefly: [to Trentino] Now, how about lending this country twenty million dollars, you old skinflint? Ambassador Trentino: Twenty million dollars is a lot of money. I'd have to take that up with my Minister of Finance. Rufus T. Firefly: Well, in the meantime, could you let me have twelve dollars until payday? Ambassador Trentino: Twelve dollars? Rufus T. Firefly: Don't be scared, you'll get it back. I'll give you my personal note for ninety days. If it isn't paid by then, you can... keep the note.
