Obama: Republicans Left Me With The Check For A Steak Dinner
RCP ^

Posted on 06/13/2012 12:24:59 PM PDT by sunmars

At a fundraiser on Tuesday, President Obama said the debt and deficit her inherited is "baked in" structurally. "If they start trying to give you a bunch of facts and figures suggesting that it's true, what they're not telling you is they baked all this stuff into the cake," Obama advised his supporters.

"If they start trying to give you a bunch of facts and figures suggesting that it's true, what they're not telling you is they baked all this stuff into the cake," he said.

"I love listening to these guys give us lectures about debt and deficits. I inherited a trillion-dollar deficit. We had a surplus, they turned it into a deficit, built it into a structural deficit that lasts for decades, and -- isn't that something?" President Obama said at a fundraiser today.

"This notion that somehow we caused the deficits is just wrong. It's just not true. Anybody who looks at the math will tell you it's not true. If they start trying to give you a bunch of facts and figures suggesting that it's true, what they're not telling you is they baked all this stuff into the cake with those tax cuts and a prescription drug plan that they didn't pay for and the wars," he said.

"So all of this stuff is baked in, with all the interest payments for it, it's like somebody goes to the restaurant, orders a big steak dinner, martini, all that stuff and then just as you're sitting down, they leave and accuse you of running up the tab. That's what they do," he said.

I bet he ate it and then stiffed the waitperson on the check.

Blame Barney Frank and his sex toy at Fannie Mae. GW Bush WANTED to look into Fannie and Freddie.

This was a rat crime concocted to benefit rats and to help sway the 2008 election.

Dire situations call for radical change, like a push to socialism and a demonizing of capitalism.

FUBO.

Those Wascally Wepublicans.

They’re so crafty, they “baked in” this debt by using a Democrat Congress from 2006-2010.

That sounds like something Obama would do if he could get away with it.

“Waitperson” shouldn’t even be a word.

What he fails to mention is that once Bush left the restaurant he ordered diamond encrusted lobster and caviar since he could blame bush for the bill.

Step away from the idiot excuses and grow a pair POS POTUS

He’s actually telling the truth for once. I was just looking at the CBO projections, even their best case scenario (end of Bush tax cuts) includes 5% annual growth and still doesn’t balance by 2022. A whole lot of hurtin coming down the road.

He proceeded to order about 12 more steaks, two large nacho appetizers, two oreo-cookie ice cream cakes, and ran up a bar tab until 2:30am the next morning before he stumbled out drunk.

He also stuffed a bunch of twenties in the juke box and played crappy songs all night.

“I bet he ate it and then stiffed the waitperson on the check.”

After he ate the steak he ordered a case of Dom Perignon, an ounce of cocaine, and a lap dance.

Basically, Obama is a First Class, Grade A, 100% pure POS and a complete douchebag.

I think it’s more like Obama invited himself to dinner
then when you went to the rest room he ordered steak
and lobster for all his croneys and now he’s shocked
that you don’t have any money.
