Cleveland Billionaires for Bush

News of Previous Actions

	Billionaires National Day of Action Tax Day Friday April 15, 2005
	Big Bucks in the Hands of the Fortunate Few The most moneyed and powerful families of Northeast Ohio gathered together to celebrate our staggering levels of wealth and the power it brings us, generation after generation. The Billionaires for Bush rolled into the downtown Cleveland United States Post Office in a fuel-squandering stretch limo on April 15th to greet poor and working class taxpayers to say "Thank YOU for Paying OUR Taxes! Relieved of even further tax burden, the super-elite expressed gratitude to all the eleventh-hour filers late into the evening, where we were greeted with enthusiastic responses from the working class. Some expressed interest in finding out about the perfectly legal, enormous political protection, and benefits of the Bush tax plan to the mega wealthy. Apparently, many Americans today are simply too busy to realize that federal taxes are used not for the infrastructure of the economy and investments in their future, but on a military that's working hard to prove that there is no such thing as foreign oil. Breaking it down to uncomplicated terms, our extravagantly dressed Cleveland Billionaire Aveda Taxman, holding a champagne flute repeatedly toasted the simple onlookers with cheery salutations including; “It’s PAY DAY for Billionaires! Thank you!” The local Fox 8 news television crew did not indicate a desire to film our Billionaire efforts, however our propaganda is already an influential part of the network PROGRAMMING anyway. Besides dahlings, as long as these ordinary citizens continue to subsidize the top 100th percent of Americans, and we can keep our generous tax cuts, well then thank you Republican Party of Privilege! CHEERS! -Goldie Sachs	Post Office Spaces Bar

	Billionaires Support Privatization of Social Security Friday April 1, 2005
	Hullo dahlings, Our efforts today at the Westlake Charles Schwab offices was absolutely fabulous. An utter lack of any public property left in Westlake and zero pedestrian traffic combined with an overwhelming Westlake police & mall security presence truly foiled the union workers attempt to protest the eradication ...err I mean, the privatization of Social Security. Putting all those public lands in private, mall-developer hands is certainly an effective tactic in stifling the annoyingly shrill voice of the common masses. Yet, the AFL CIO, the AFT, and other terrorist-sponsored unions still insisted on defending greedy retirees, disabled workers, and other insatiable Americans who have no appreciation for our plans to make money from their hard earned cash. Billionaire Shay Melessa Fluence grandly made all the strategic maneuvering to keep us as effectively far away from the grubby working class as possible. Sir Rollin N. Dough, Dusty Rich Sachs, Ionna D. Copps and Maura Forme deftly handled the media by triumphantly promoting the noble cause to protect our stock portfolios and the future comforts of our Billionaire children. Remember Billionaires, even though we easily bought another 4 years in the White House with our President Bush answering to Billionaire interests, there is still work to be done. -Goldie Sachs	Plain Dealer

Greeting Dick Cheney in Grove City
Monday, September 18, 2004

After bidding adieu to our new OSU friends we headed to Grove city to greet Dick Cheney where even in our small numbers we clearly outclassed the misguided Kerry fans in both style and signage. We gave Cheney the Hero's welcome he deserved. But we didn't stop there.

We stayed until the end of his speech, even though many other protesters had left, to show our dedication. And we stayed beyond that to greet fellow Cheney fans as they left the event.

Finally our dedication was rewarded as the media appeared to help us spread the Billionaire message far and wide. We spoke to people from the Toledo Blade and WKSU/NPR as well as representatives from French and Canadian media.

Billionaires for Bush
Celebrate "Education Is Not For Everyone" Day at Ohio State University
Monday, September 20, 2004

It was a hot and Sunny day when we arrived at the OSU Campus to deliver our Billionaire message of "Education Is Not For Everyone". Without our faithful maid Anita Raisenhow in tow there was no one to serve the chilled Dom Perignon and so we were actually sweating! You see, there IS a first time for everything.

We were gratified to see so many students sporting the attractive Bush/Cheney logo stickered to their middle class T-Shirts. A receptive crowd anxious to hear our plans to end public education and block all access to the better life against the coarse middle classes that plague our nations colleges today.

We were so loved that we were able to sign up more than 100 students to be Columbus Billionaires. Huzzah to all of them and here's hoping that on November 3rd we can continue to push education out of the reach of ordinary Americans.

Billionaires for Bush
Celebrate Cheap Labor Day
Monday, September 6, 2004

‘W’ Stands for Wealth!

Obviously pandering to the special interests of ordinary Americans, John Kerry made his 14th visit to
Ohio on Monday at a Labor Day rally in our hopelessly blue-collar city, which is also embarrassingly desperate with job losses in the past four years.

A crowd of several thousand mostly black Ohioans gathered at Luke Easter Park in a working class
neighborhood near downtown Cleveland to hear Kerry's speech. Dressed to impress in tuxedos and ball gowns, we Billionaires reminded the pedestrian crowd of voters that George W. Bush is the only candidate actively working to reduce America’s dangerous dependence on domestic labor. Yet, John Kerry has boldly proposed a plan that includes creating 10 million new jobs!

Many of the Clevelanders in attendance grumbled about the lack of health care but we Billionaires told them about the new health care plan we are proposing called “walk it off”. Many Clevelanders whined about being unemployed but we suppressed rising dissent by advocating a “lowering of the minimum wage”. And, many Clevelanders complained about the frightening fiasco of the last election. Well, we Billionaire’s certainly could not agree more! Thanks to our good friends at Diebold, and their touch screen voting machine, we can ensure that this swing state WILL swing our way. And since there are no messy paper ballots, ‘Chad’ will just be another country to liberate!

Finally, John Kerry has insidiously unveiled a new attack on Mr. Bush, saying that ‘W’ stands for ‘Wrong’ and that voters needed to decide between the president's "wrong choices and wrong direction for America".

We Billionaires reminded Cleveland voters that ‘W’ stands for WEALTH!

	Saturday, September 4, 2004 “Ask President Bush” in Brecksville, Ohio 7:00 AM Following in the footsteps of Richard Nixon, President Bush scheduled a second personal visit to the Brecksville, Ohio community on Saturday morning. Cleveland Billionaires Mr. & Mrs. Rollin N. Dough, Max Avarice, Eileen Wright, Goldie Sachs, Reginald Silverspoon VI, Dusty Rich Sachs, Val U. Blassettes, Hallie Burton, and other winners under George W. Bush’s economic policies, gathered together to give the president a hero’s welcome to suburban Ohio. Our maid, Anita Raisenow, provided servitude by carrying our signs, loading our limo, and making certain the Bill’s were provided with plenty of thirst quenching bubbly. The Cleveland Billionaires for Bush drove to Brecksville in rich attire and high style to attend the very exclusive “Ask President Bush” engagement being held at the local high school. When our white limo rolled into the quaint suburb, featuring a variety of upscale homes, our driver was told by authorities we would need actual tickets to attend the event! Of course, we never assumed that we would need a private invitation to see our President Bush and Dusty Rich Sachs immediately informed the city worker that we would simply buy our way into the door. Unfortunately, the officer mistakenly directed our limo away from the high school auditorium. As a result of such poor direction, we stumbled into a very out-of-the-way FREE speech zone... when we clearly should have been ushered into the highly select FEE speech zone to applaud our president’s morning remarks with the rest of our well-heeled peers. Nonetheless, our affluent Billionaire presence among the many of the Bush protestors and Kerry supporters was welcomed with both cheers and heckles further highlighting the futility of their humble remonstration. Thanks to our continuous campaign contributions, we Billionaires obviously have the November election all wrapped up! As we departed from the remote free speech zone, Max Avarice cheerfully bid farewell to the grubby throng of protestors reminding them to watch more Fox News, to keep shopping at Walmart, and to leave the voting to us. We Billionaires drove away even more determined to take up President Bush’s call to supporters to bring his message to the common city people he himself would never personally address. Not that any of those people could afford such an audience!! An exhausting day ensued as we further exerted ourselves at other Saturday events including the Ohio City Urban Xpressions Urban Arts Festival and the Cleveland Air Show, where we thanked Cleveland for paying our fair share! -Goldie Sachs	Photos

	Saturday, September 4, 2004 Ohio City Urban Xpressions Arts Festival in Open Air Market Square Arriving to Cleveland from the lush suburbia of Brecksville, the Billionaires brought the president’s message to the concrete streets at the Ohio City Urban Arts festival sponsored by Cleveland Public Art. Clearly the term “art” is being pandered to the lowest denominator as we witnessed a celebration of graffiti of all things! The horror. Clearly, we need to re-examine just how those NEA funds are being dispensed. I, for one, will not be providing any private patronage to any of those so-called graffiti artists. But art does have the power to sustain and we Billionaires were certainly relieved to see a portrait taking shape of the man who touches our deepest values and special interests. A champagne toast to the president!! -Goldie Sachs	Photos

	Billionaires kick off National Cheap Labor Day festivities Friday, September 03, 2004 Following an AFL- CIO Federation of Labor-Cleveland sponsored parade, the nattily clad Cleveland Billionaire’s Rollin N. Dough, Max Avarice, and Dusty Rich Sachs, strode purposely through Willard Park on Friday afternoon past about 50 local unions to show opposition to those very unions and other labor groups who love to attack Billionaire profit margins. With great poise, the Billionaires joined in the annual Labor Day tribute to the working American by applauding the contributions that Bush’s economic policies have made to the low cost, inexpensiveness, and general cheapness of cheap labor. Friday was a roaring start to protecting our billionaire special interests over a very busy Cheap Labor Day Weekend in Cleveland, Ohio! -Goldie Sachs	Photos

	Slavic Village Harvest Festival Saturday, August 28, 2004 “More Stogies - Less Pierogies!” The Billionaires for Bush triumphantly marched through a popular Cleveland ethnic street fair, the Slavic Village Harvest Festival, held in the heart of the city’s historic ‘Warszawa’ neighborhood, a large Polish-American community. The Billionaires fabulous appearance caused many people to drop their cabbage, as they stood awestruck in our affluent presence. We quickly grew tired of chanting “Tax Work, Not Wealth” against the polka music, so we retired to the Beer Garden and committed random acts of leisure among the locales. -Goldie Sachs	Photos

Launch of the Dick Cheney Defense Fund
Voinovich Park

There is a long list of accusations against him:
- Overseeing Enron-style accounting at Halliburton
- Halliburton bribery investigations
- The secret energy task force
- Supreme Court cronyism
- Doing business in Iran, Iraq, and Libya
- Arranging no-bid contracts
- Multiple draft deferments
- And more…

We have the Billionaires’ answer to every one of them, and we must show our support for Bush’s right hand man!

The Cleveland Chapter did mobilize in support of our Vice President on a hot and muggy Saturday afternoon in downtown Cleveland at the Red Bull sponsored Flutag event. We clearly dominated the entrance/exit, in front of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame intersection, setting up a table, a banner, and plenty of bubbly for thirsty Bills.

The impassioned Cleveland core Billionaires; including Max Avarice, Val U. Blassettes, Rich R.Sachs, Mr. & Mrs. Rollin’ N.Dough, Goldie Sachs, Anita Baskinwealth, and Maura LeCorupt, among others; had complete control of the hundreds of teeming pedestrian and driver passersby that were greeted with enthusiastic Billionaire chants and informative leaflets calling for a Hands off Halliburton.

Throughout the day, onlookers driving Hummers and SUV’s received cheers of approval from the Billionaires, while the more simple pedestrians looked on in awe (who doesn't want to be us!), took pictures, and examined the leaflets, alternately cursing and cheering our efforts.

Perhaps the best moment of the day took place while chanting the series “Whose President? OUR President!!” , when an RTA public bus rolled by emitting a thick black cloud of smog. As the pollution settled over the area, this illicited loud cheers from our top Cleveland Billionaires followed by a “Whose smog?… OUR smog!!” and more cheers of Billionaire delight.

Despite the obvious lack of commoner Clevelander donations contributed to Dick Cheney’s Defense Fund, it was a highly successful day indeed.
