For some 2 + 2 = 4. For others, the question would lead to answers such as these.

"Well, if you take the liberal buttmonkey way of adding that you'll get a deficit 38 trillion dollars over the next 5 months. However, if you gave the wealthy a 12% bonus on their income instead of taxing them you would have over-employment, a stronger economy and that 2 + 2 could equal a surplus of 24 trillion dollars in 4 days."

"2 + 2 = ? You give a liberal communist $2 and then another $2 he's going to go borrow another $24 billion from some poor, hardworking banker, spend it and go bankrupt thereby screwing someone who works for their money out of a whole days earnings. There is no obvious answer to the question, it's whatever the liberal is willing to lie about to take advantage of those who truly earn their billions."
