205: Why We Have Trump

There could never have been Trump for president had we not first experienced Obama as president. BO set the precedent for electing a president based solely on appearance (black) and completely devoid of any executive experience for the most complicated executive office in the world.  Once elected, BO governed as a petulant college student who had never balanced a check book.  In the midst of the worst financial crisis of several generations, BO chose to expand the federal government's productivity crushing influence and control into health care and financial services at alarming rates.  There may well be only one person in the entire BO cabinet who knows to read a balance sheet, and that guy (Jack Lew) played a huge role in running Citi into the ditch.

Almost all of what Trump spews is anathema to the BO image and agenda.  Voters like that.  Thus, we have Trump precisely because we first had BO.

204: President Bonehead Oil Tax Proposal

Barack Obama walks into a bar.  This could be the first line of a great joke, which is what BO proposed today.  A $10 per barrel oil tax?  From a lame duck president?  With a Republican controlled congress?  What a screamer.  I'm sure Bernie will endorse this tax.  Will Hillary?

Even if BO was serious, which of course he is not, who would this tax benefit, and who would it hurt?  Millionaires and billionaires would never change their behavior on account of this tax.  But a family of four with annual income of, say, $50K, would be devastated.  More proof that Democrats are stupid.

203: Democrats Love A Liar

Democrats certainly love their liars.  How else could Hillary stay on top of the heap?  Democrats felt the same way about Bubba.  After he was impeached for lying under oath, every Democrat member of Congress gathered on the steps of the Capitol building and stood by their man.  Of course most of these Democrats don't care about the lying because they stupidly believe that Hillary and the other liars are actually laboring away for the masses. 

But even by politician standards, and even by Democrat standards, Hillary certainly takes the cake.  And the nitwit network talking heads are just as complicit as the ordinary rank and file Democrat idiots. 

Martha Stewart went to jail for telling lies that would be considered tame compared to some of Hillary's whoppers.  When will the idiots wake up?
