I’m no billionaire, but I must be a friggin genius.
Along with millions of other concerned Americans, I knew the Porkulus was a big fat waste of time, energy, and most of all….my money.
So, when the guy with the fattest wallet says nope, no recovery you’ve got problems. Do you remember how The One spouted off that he had the greatest financial minds behind him on the “stimulus” bill? Warren Buffet was on that list, and he is a big Dem supporter.
Uh oh… Warren says he isn’t seeing the stimulus work. No signs…
Remember when Barry said…“we do not have a minute to waste,” people are losing jobs. We can’t wait… we need to “jolt” the economy. Remember how Republicans begged for time to read the bill? Then, of course, The One took four days off and signed it the next week. Some urgency there big guy…
Now….we’re broke, and we have nothing to show for it. Well, except for higher unemployment and a stalled economy. Oh….and the higher taxes that are headed our way on top of the unfathomable debt.
OK…so, who wants to defend the actions of this administration and his puppet masters in the Congress? Come on…
I found this new blog through a Facebook post from another conservative. It seems the idea has caught on and in a few short days, Political Math is gathering a handful of readers. Its still a little rough around the edges, but I like the content.
The videos and text are a great explanation of how much money we’re hearing about these days. There’s a saying in the world of marketing and advertising:
“It’s not what the numbers say, its what you say about the numbers”
The Obama administration, and especially the Big O himself, are very good at marketing. Hell, without it we would have President McCain. The point is, the Obama press conferences are filled with big numbers, confusing math, and flowery prose… and the media just nods in wonderment.
When you hear things like $100 million, yeah, its a hell of a lot of money. But, relative to the total spending tab, it ain’t shit. But they don’t tell you that. They figure you’re too stupid to wrap your head around it.
Do not use past irresponsibility as an excuse to be more irresponsible. Don’t use past mistakes to justify your future recklessness. Don’t try to sugarcoat it in a convenient soundbite made for Twitter.
So The One says he was “unaware” that the Tea Parties were taking place today. Ummm…what’s that word…oh yeah, bullshit! This statement by the administration today should be enlightening for you. I’ll explain… If The One is truly “unaware”, then he is completely out of touch with the citizens and mood of this country. And, [...]
I am curious to see the outrage on Freddie Mac’s bonus program… Obama and Dodd are practically on the payroll of Freddie Mac with the campaign contributions. Outrage!! Come on Barry… get, ahem, er, um…. angry!!
I am absolutely infuriated…enraged….pissed off…disgusted…there aren’t enough words to describe how I feel about this. I have never witnessed a clearer example of the fox guarding the hen house. Of course I don’t like the bonuses on my tab…duh. There’s a bigger issue here that is is getting lost in the blind hatred for the [...]
Apparently, I spoke too soon. I was full of Hope for Change. Tax and Spend is back in fashion on Capitol Hill and the White House! There is some extreme short-sightedness here. Sure, it makes for a wonderful sound bite… “raise taxes on those oil producing bastards and mega-corporations! They make enough money!” There are [...]
You know, I’m really happy to see that the old “Tax-and-Spend” Democrats have changed. They’re not taxing… …just spending! Change we can believe in… like the Tooth Fairy or Santa Claus.
What happened to five days for the public to review legislation? The Dems in Congress passed HR-1 late Friday, The Big O signed it Tuesday around noon. Sorry, is this some new calendar? I only count 3 1/2 days… Somebody get me a day planner, some tax shelters, and an antacid.
The “stimulus” bill spending really kicks in around 2010 and 2011. How convenient… The Bush tax cuts that helped keep our economy rumbling along for the past few years are set to expire at the end of 2010. The pork in the “stimulus” adds so may pet projects and entitlements, the Federal government will be [...]
As the Anointed One is in the process of signing the biggest Congressional Crap Sandwich in US history, I have a sneaking suspicion of how future events will play out. I’m looking towards the 2010 and 2012 election here… The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 does not “jolt” the economy into shape. No… [...]
i’m sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you’re not patriotic. we need to stand up and say we’re americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration.
