One Hundred Twenty One: BO & The Debt Downgrade

As I watch the market freefall today, especially after BO put his mug on the boob tube and further enhanced his reputation as the dumbest president ever when it comes to understanding finance and the economy, I must say that anyone who votes for BO in November 2012 has to be either incredibly stupid or a government worker, and I realize that the former probably qualifies one to be the latter. There apparently is no one at work in BO administration who has ever balanced a checkbook or run a business. It is as though these children think they will all of a sudden wake up next year and everything will be all right. BO lectures the Republicans, the Tea Party, his own fellow Democrats, and worst of all, us, the American people. He thinks he is only person in the country who is blameless. He came into office preaching the virtues of "post-partisanship" and other platitudes. He then proceeded to impose his vision of socialism on what once was a free market economy. We really need a president who has had a real job.

One Hundred Twenty: Debt Ceiling Debate

I think the Republicans misidentified the prime objective in the debt ceiling debate. Rather than focusing on no additional taxes and a balanced budget amendment, they should have insisted on the short term extension. Personally, I would like to see this debate happen every freaking week until the idiot voters in this country realize that these lam brains in Washington are the real "fat cats." It is BO and his Democrat cronies who want to bury this issue. Of course they will sell out their own party members just to NOT have to debate the issue of spending within our means prior to the 2012 election. Every household and business in the United States has had to put the clamps on spending for the past three years. Only Washington has allowed the tap run as though the well will never run dry. Just look at real estate prices in DC. It looks like the hey day of 2006, only better. Where do people think this money is coming from?

Anyone who votes for Obama or Durbin or Reid or Pelosi is, of course, dumber than a post. But that's what happens in a democracy - you get lots and lots of real stupid decision makers.
