The NYT Caucus blog reports that House Republicans, eager to distance themselves from their work damaging our country, unveiled a new election-year slogan:
It looks like Republicans will counter the Democratic push for change from the years of the Bush administration with their own pledge to deliver, drum roll please, "the change you deserve." The first element of the party agenda developed over the past few months by the leadership and select party members will focus on family issues."Through our "Change You Deserve" message and through our "American Families Agenda," House Republicans will continue our efforts to speak directly to an American public looking for leaders who will offer real solutions for the challenges they confront every day," said the memo prepared for lawmakers.
Turns out the phrase is taken. The prescription drug Effexor is used to treat "depression, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and panic disorder in adults." Sold by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals using the slogan "The Change You Deserve."
In clinical studies, the most common side effects with EFFEXOR XR (reported in at least 10% of patients and at least twice as often as with placebo) were constipation, dizziness, dry mouth, insomnia, loss of appetite, nausea, nervousness, sexual side effects, sleepiness, sweating, and weakness.
This is too easy.
