Cash for Cons

Now that the federally funded new car 'give-away' program has been declared such a huge success by the folks in Washington, they now give us 'Cash for Cons!'

The President did say he wanted this massive stimulus program to lend itself to 'shovel-ready programs,' but this offers a whole new dimension to its original true intent!
