“You can’t fix stupid” - Ron White

Thing is, zero will blame the tanking on the republicans who will then use it as a reason to cave in.

This proving yet again.

You can’t fix stupid.

Why not — it worked for him in Nov/Dec 2008.

BHO2 is bent on destroying the U.S. economy. It is somewhat like the Cloward-Piven strategy to establish socialism; only in BHO2’s case, it it meant to bring about Global socialism.

And guess who thinks he is going to be President of the World?

Absolutely.

He's trying to scare them so he can turn and use that panic as a weapon against Republicans trying to do the right thing.

He is attempting to generate his forcing function the only way a community organizer knows how.

To incite a riot.

Given that crisis he can be God and do what ever he wants.

Well at least we know that Barry was paying attention during the Cloward Piven classes he took at Columbia University.

Congress has to take action without the marxist. He wants the default.

I already put everything possible in gold and swiss franc funds. He’s intent on killing the market and the dollar.

Its bizarre and frightening.

So far he has only confronted bleating, albeit, compliant lambs.

If a coup is attempted, I believe he'll have a whole other animal on his hands - this time.

I think he is misjudging The People. He confuses us with "politicians".

Democrats appear to think that doubling a 50% tax to 100% will double revenue.

They were hoping we’d fall for Lucy’s perennial football ploy.

IMO, he needs a crisis in order to get voters to “panic vote” to accept something they wouldn’t even countenance in a more rational situation. Kinda like FDR in his first/second terms. >PS

President Child

--------------------------

I AGREE WITH THAT

I agree Darkwolf.

Usually when a President's party gets an election reaming, as id did in 2010, the President moves to the middle. Zer0, who fancies himself a king, is pedal-to-the-metal for the cliff.

Conservatives should call a press conference three times a day exposing the fraudulent behavior of the rats. Do what's right. The country is depending on you.

A visit to the woodshed2
It's not my fault!

Take Barack Jackwagon Marx to the woodshed in 2012.

Refuse to raise the debt ceiling! Now's the time to have some big, brass, clanging baiis. Please.

Countdown until Obama leaves Office: 547 days as of July 22, 2011.

Barack Obama: Narcissist,Sadist,Ideologue,Fool.
He is the front man for the most dangerous development
in American politics I have seen in my lifetime.
EVERYTHING he does and says, by conscious design or not,
is engineered to turn this country upside down, push
the envelope in the most reckless ways, and create class
warfare. The devastation and destructive uncertainty his
policies have ALREADY brought about are not debatable, the potential for absolute catastrophe awaits us in the near future if he’s re-elected. (He won’t be, but the process of
undoing what he’s instituted and re-establishing global alliances with the forces and interests he’s abandoned is going to be JOB ONE for any new Administration, and could take years). Barack Obama is a PHENOMENON, as has to be understood as such:no one this extreme has ever put himself and his interests so blatantly right up in our faces, and been so resolute, arrogant and narcissistic in the way he’s done it. He is NOT a politician, he’s a self-appointed demagogue with NO connection to the American people, even those phantom constituencies he thinks remain steadfastly in his camp. Talk about a national nightmare-—we’ve never withstood anything this bad, this misguided, in all its comprehensive WRONGNESS. It’s a tribute to capitalism ONLY
that we’ve been able to roll with the punches, but just barely.....

Bingo! We have a winner.

Mass layoffs (Goldman Sacs, Cisco, NASA, Borders) are in the works as I type, and this Dufuss wants to raise taxes. “You can't fix Stupid.”

Getting rid of the mortgage deduction in the middle of the worst housing market ever is beyond insane. “You can't fix Stupid.”

The Democratic Congress has not passed a Budget for over 800 days, beyond idiocy. “You can't fix Stupid.”

Obama and the Democrats OWN THIS.

FUBO! FUNP! FUHR!
