“Paul Ryan represents Obama’s most horrifying nightmare: Math”

“Paul Ryan represents Obama’s most horrifying nightmare: Math”

Keith Backer

The Blogfather has a great column where he quotes the always hysterical IowaHawk regarding the impact of selection Paul Ryan on the Obama campaign psyche:

In Inman Majors’ terrific novel The Millionaires, a consultant explains that there are really only two themes to political campaigns: “It’s A Bright New Day,” and “Back To Basics.” Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign was “Bright New Day” raised to a higher power. Now, with the choice of Paul Ryan as his running mate, Mitt Romney has signaled that he’s doubling down on “Back To Basics.” That has risks, but they’re risks worth running.

With trillion dollar deficits as far as the eye can see, and the exploding national debt (which Obama called unconscionable when it was about half as big as it has become under his stewardship) it seems time for a Back To Basics approach. And that’s clearly the direction favored by Romney, the turnaround artist who specialized in taking mismanaged entities and making them work. His choice of Ryan simply takes it to a new level. As Internet humorist IowaHawk tweeted on Saturday: “Paul Ryan represents Obama’s most horrifying nightmare: Math.”

As the great one often says, read the whole thing…

I think that is why there are no transcripts. Like Jethro Bodine, Zero was educated clear to the 6th grade.

Obama is like Teen Talk Barbie, but without the intellectual endowment, the fashion sense, or the looks.

B-Ho has no math sense. Years ago they called it having a ‘math block’. Today they call it dyscalculia. He can’t do basic arithmetic operations. No wonder he hasn’t been able to put a budget together. A budget involves numbers.

The fact that liberals are screaming shows how good a choice Ryan was. Imagine a debate with Ryan vs Biden. Nuff said!

Obama's math includes being a millionaire and telling people not
to vote for Romney because he's a milionaire.

Domo arigato, as they say in Japanese.

After four years of the worst Presidential administration since Jimmy Carter from 1977 to 1981, we can use an "antidate" like this big time.
