The Daily Show writers missed an opportunity on this one.
As the Republicans play their political game in this video using charts and visual aids to pretend that it is impossible to explain what a trillion dollars is to the rest of us morons, the answer to their swill was more than obvious.
A trillion dollars is what Republicans will spend on the Iraq War.
Which they dishonestly put off budget, which is wasted money that does us more harm than good, and to top it off, anyone questioning them spending a trillion dollars on that war were accused of being unAmerican, traitors, seditious, hating our troops and wanting all our children killed.
It’s called REPUBLICANISM which has recently been added to the trash heap of history along with monarchy, feudalism, fascism and communism.
