The Fear Card

January 28, 2008 By Mark Draughn 2 Comments

Over at Drug WarRant, Pete writes about yet another way politicians and their minions use the fear card to get more money for government programs.

As part of his article, he includes a mock “FEAR” credit card. I liked the idea a lot, but I wanted to try making one that was even more obviously a credit card:

Fear

You might think the monster is so cheesy looking because I have no artistic talent, but really I did it that way as an ironic commentary on the banal fakery inherent to all fear-mongering. I swear.

    LOL – love the card number’s repetition of 911 over and over. Just like Rudy & King George II.
