Obama's Lewser Of The Week

If we get anymore assists from academia we should be able to got broker faster.


Distinguished Pol of the Week


Lew’s tenure at New York University, where he pulled down an enormous salary, including sweetheart loans, while the students were footing enormous tuition bills. Worse, under his nose NYU negotiated a deal with Citicorp (miraculously, Lew’s next employer!) to provide loans to students, a deal that then-state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo found to be illegal.

Meet Obama's new secretary of the treasury. He'll fit right in. Another academic that knows nothing, but how to game the system.

Liberal Math And You Wonder Why Obama Says 'The Private Sector Is Doing Fine'

Despite rhetoric, the parties' mountains of money are about even

The State Journal’s analysis found that at least $35 million went to the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, Democratic candidates in recall elections and union groups including the AFL-CIO, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the Service Employees International Union, Wisconsin Education Association Council and others.

On the other side, at least $36.9 million flowed into the Walker campaign, the Republican Party of Wisconsin, pro-Walker groups and GOP officeholders tagged for recall, the analysis showed.

The private sector is not fine and Obama is killing it even more, but maybe surrounding himself with people that run around screaming that Walker outspent his opposition 7 - 1 or whatever imaginary number their using today isn't good for our economy. They all flunked math or ethics. I'd bet both.

Politifake Dives In The Tank For Obama "The Fiscal Conservative'

As a homage to the Axlerods and Emanuels of the world Politifact, helping out their buddy Rex Nutting (whose article has been totally ridiculed), proudly published a lie so bold that it will be broadcast from sea to shining sea as truth. If not, Obama is toast.


It might seem incredible that a president who has signed into law the largest federal spending in history, who has run up $5 trillion in new debt, who has submitted budgets that propose increasing the national debt to $22 trillion–budgets so extreme that not a single member of either the House or the Senate would vote for them, two years running–would somehow try to pass himself off as a fiscal conservative. But in politics, nothing, apparently, is impossible. This is the Obama campaign’s new theme: Obama as the green-eyeshade fiscal conservative.

This is a twofer in that they make Obama into something he isn't, responsible, and they once again get to bash Bush. A liberal goregasm! Returning to the article let's look at some facts:

You really can’t make this stuff up. Here are the federal budget deficits for the fiscal years 2005 through 2012 (2012 is estimated):

2005: 318,000,000,000
2006: 248,000,000,000
2007: 161,000,000,000

The Democrats took control of Congress in January 2007, one-third of the way through FY 2007.
2008: 459,000,000,000

Now we get to the Obama administration.

2009: 1,413,000,000,000
2010: 1,293,000,000,000
2011: 1,300,000,000,000
2012: 1,327,000,000,000

So Obama has presided over the four largest federal budget deficits in history, by an extremely wide margin. This is how he “cleaned up” the “wild debts” of his Republican predecessor. Of course, federal spending is not entirely, or even primarily, about the president: only Congress has the power to spend money. So this is one more fact that should not be forgotten: since the Democrats took control of Congress in 2007, federal spending has risen by more than $1 trillion, or 39%.

The shills and hacks that are repeating the fiscal conservative nonsense about Obama do not want to acknowledge the $2 trillion that will be added in 2014 by the Obama administration nor do they want to allow any discussion of the trillions in costs added by non=elected arms of government such as the EPA through mandates and regulations nor do they want to talk about the added trillions of continued unemployment caused by these regulations, mandates and spending programs.

Even Axlerod and Emanuel are laughing into their sleeves over this lie too big.

Obama Is Desperate That We Be Distracted From His Record

And with good reason. His record is a disaster for the country and now it appears it is also a disaster to his re-election.

War On Distractions

Mixed in with the economy, the price of gas, food inflation, the abject and laughable green economy and his war on women (don't even mention the DOJ and and other leftist agencies such as the EPA), Obama ain't got long game.

ObamaCare Already Hurting Economy

How Fast Can Obama Ruin The US Economy?


For gravitas President Obama sang
"I'm  a Little Teapot" accompanied
by an lutist.
President Obama, whose annual deficit spending has been more than twice as high as any other recent president’s (even as a percentage of the gross domestic product), has now released his new deficit plan. As the Wall Street Journal notes, “It is the president’s fourth package of deficit-reduction ideas this year.” Of these, only the first — his budget — was scored by a neutral, respected third-party. In that instance, Obama said his proposal would lower deficit spending by $1.1 trillion. The Congressional Budget Office said his proposal would raise deficit spending by $2.7 trillion — increasing it (over the next decade) from a projected $6.7 trillion under current law to $9.5 trillion under his proposal.  
The president’s latest proposal, which would increase taxes and thereby dis-incentivize work and investment, would likely have similar effects. Two things have brought about the unprecedented deficits under Obama: runaway spending, and an economic “recovery” that’s been a historic flop. The president’s new plan would do essentially nothing to address the former, and would likely cause the latter to sink even further. 
This is a classic example of Emerson's, "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines." The question of how fast? Faster than anyone thought possible.

Review 2011 Election/Preview of 2012 Election Thoughts

After the elections yesterday I thought this explanation should be repeated.
  • Democrats  don't understand THE DEBT CEILING.
  • Republicans don't understand THE DEBT CEILING.
  • Liberals don't understand THE DEBT CEILING.
  • Neocons don't understand THE DEBT CEILING.
Allow me to explain

Let's say, you come home from work and find there has been a sewer backup in your neighborhood.

Your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.

What do you think you should do? Raise the ceilings or pump out the crap?

Your choice is coming next November. Don't miss the opportunity.

Helping Obama Get Re-Elected

Experts expect gasoline to surge to $4.00 per gallon or higher in 2012. Way to go Barry. You rock!

After paying more to heat our homes in this global warming caused cold weather we all are eager to pay higher gas prices which mean higher costs for products like food and, gosh darn it, we deseve to pay more because we are not worthy!

Re-Reject Barry in 2012.

To The Obama Morons Quoting Reagan On Bus Drivers And Millionaires.

It was a different time and different circumstances in which Reagan altered our tax structure. Most children would know that. Also, most children wouldn't be so ignorant of economics that they'd liken Obama to Reagan. One was a leader while the other isn't. One was comfortable in the deep end while the other is in over his head in a baby pool. One knew economics and the economy while the other hasn't a clue which is understandable because he has never had a real job, never made a payroll and is merely a perpetual candidate never an incumbent.

Today's tax code is:

Reagan was a true conservative who was fighting the usual tax and spend liberals who then controlled congress. Those tax and spenders were Democrats and Republicans (in name only). Today's cut and past crowd either doesn't care to read history or they, more likely, can't understand it. That's why they cut and paste. It reminds them of their coloring books that made them feel like artists as youngsters. I wish they'd grow up.

Obama Is Stupider Than A Rock

Overheard at the grocery store this evening:

Q: Will you vote for Obama a second time?


A: Yeah, if he finds me a job.

This was not a government bureaucrat type loser.

They both chuckled and walked away.

To look at Arugula.

Obama's Working Vacation Isn't Working

Obama and family spent 5 hours or so on a private beach on Martha's Vineyard and all we got was a lousy economy.

Politically, of course, this is a rolling disaster for the Obama administration.

Of course, Obama is ignoring evacuation and emergency work on the island due to Hurricane Irene. When our Sunbather In Chief decides to get-and-go he'll just have his underlings clear the roads and airport runways to make room for his departure. If everyone is gone maybe his staff can get any unionized emergency workers to line the road to wave and bow as he blesses them with his nanosecond presence.

It's tough work to not work on a working vacation.

Happy Birthday To Mr. President The Unemployed

Jill at Pundit and Pundette speaks to the narcissistic leader of the free world as opposed to the community organizer of personal campaigning. Go to Ed Driscoll's to get his take on this moronic and callous slap to those unemployed.

Classy understated cake

Classy Birthday Bash Decorations

Reality
Since our Dear Leader can do the impossible, like destroying the world's economy, he can bring back the dead such as "The late Marilyn Monroe" for a classy rendition of "Happy Birthday" to not only publicly slap the unemployed in the face, but also the wife .
