Over the weekend, I was on a blog where Rose posted about politicians that spent like drunken sailors. People spoke up in defence of sailors and she was wondering what a better analogy would be. I suggested Wall St. Lobbyists. It wasn't that good. So I ask the question. What is a good analogy for politicians that spend too much?
In some magical synergy, this ended up in my inbox tonight.
For those that don't know Rose, she is a local blogger that on occasion helps me with my blog. She is an excellent proof reader and has a passion for local politics.
ReplyDeleteI don't always agree with her but she shoots straight and you don't have to guess where she is coming from.
In the interest of Drunken Sailors, I think we could all use a new analogy for that type of spending.
Here's one, how about " spends money like a redneck that just won the lottery?"
