Verbal Jazz also yearns to exercise "bad judgement"
Commentator Armstrong Williams recently admitted to being paid $241,000 by the Department of Education in order to promote the No Child Left Behind legislation, referring to his actions as "bad judgment."
Verbal Jazz would like the administration to know, that I, too would be willing to accept large sums of money in order to help with the public relations aspect of promoting legislation. For instance:
* I think it's time we were allowed to invest our Social Security savings in the stock market. By why stop there? Why not invest our retirement on the Colts-Patriots game next week, or even use it to buy our way into the World Series of Poker? After all this so-called "New Deal" thing is so old. Cost: $122,500
* Tort reform: it's not just for pastries anymore. If we don't enact tort reform legislation now, you'll eventually have to have your lawyer attend every medical examination with your doctor's lawyer also present. And large drug companies should be sheltered from financial risk for new medications, after all they are driving the engine of progress on the medical frontier. Cost: $145,678.35
* Tax relief: The only sure way to ensure that our economic future is secure is to spend billions of dollars promoting freedom and then pass that savings onto the poor. After all, the wealthy have enough to deal with without having to also pay the government for services they don't even use. Cost $250,666.67
As you can see there are plenty of ways that Verbal Jazz would be willing to exercise "bad judgment." In fact, I've made too many good decisions in my life and need to add a couple that are ethically dubious. Please, Mr. President, all I want to do is help.
