What would it take to buy out the terms of George Bush and Dick Cheney?
If we offered them blanket immunity for all their past crimes plus $100 billion---wrinkled bills, small denominations, mixed serial numbers and in a respectable currency like Euros, or Dubai Dirhams---might they retire to Paraguay and let us get on with the Free World?
