So the politicians lived happily ever after, continuing to deceive and rip off the poor taxpayers, because you see, son, there is no Superman to set things right ... and sometimes the bad guys do win.

And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Dear son this is a book about how a socialist Muslim President put us deeper and deeper and faster into debt than any other President in our history. Plus son there is a section in the book on how not to vote for a crappy President like Odumba ever again.

"...and the way they got elected was to do lots of favors for lots of groups that promised to vote for them. So they spent lots and lots of money on their friends that would keep them in office. The problem was, they didn't have enough real money, so they wrote IOUs. to all their special friends.

So Bobby, if you ever get a job and make money - all the people with those IOU's that they've been holding will come looking for YOU. Good night.

In a State deep in debt and the County of Kendall there was candidate for County Coroner that heard the people’s plea to make a 20 percent cut and he found a way to do it responsibly. The Kendall County Board Chairman was not happy because it was his wife's government job where someone watched HD-PCTV on their computer at work.

You see son when you take something that does not belong to you it's called stealing and thats wrong ....unless you can convince 51 percent of the people to vote that stealing from/ taxing others to benifit yourself is perfectly fine... then it's "cool" until our country collapses.....THE END!
