Michael sent me this Application For Federal Bailout Program from Vanity Fair (Lord knows I could sure use one!) in response to Thursday’s post and I thought I’d share it with readers.

Maybe if enough of us apply, Hank Paulson and the boys on the Hill will be moved to grant a bailout for us poor taxpayers.

Of course, the rub will be deciding who’ll pay for it. Maybe Wall Street, once they clean up their act with the $700 Billion we sent them.

That would be fair, don’t you think? We scratched their backs, now they can scratch ours?

Yeah, right. Fat chance.

Anyway, here’s the form (click to enlarge). Paulson has his pen and checkbook ready. Hurry while supplies last.
