Yep, there’s no better way to get out of a hole than to keep digging deeper, isn’t that so, Mr. President?

That’s the tried and true progressive plan, right?

Keep digging no matter what.

The hole’s too deep. We need to dig deeper.

Say what you will about President You Didn’t Build That, you’ve got to admit no other politician could say such stupid stuff with such a straight face.

Wait a second....if unemployment is “really” 7.0%....why do so many folks still need unemployment benefits?

prez snoop dawg knows the 7% number is bogus and that if the unemployment bennies were cut off, we’d very quickly find out just how bad the real unemployment situation is.

and that might cause some problems.

Barack Obama, 2013:

“There’s no one who is more frustrated by this hole that Bush dug for us than I am. That’s why we have no choice but to keep digging until we manage to dig our way out.”

Since unemployment benefits are one of the best economic stimulants there are we should have the Fed print up a few trillion dollars and force every citizen accept triple-unemployment benefits, regardless of whether or not they are employed.

Just imagine the golden era of prosperity that will result from this.

What’s the point of more unemployment benefits unless Obama stops the printing of more regulations which act as an anchor on businesses? There should be a moratorium on regulations, or no unemployment benefits.

Obama’s never seen a taxpayer dollar he didn’t want to waste.

They've already dug the hole all the way to China, Obama's just dumping more taxpayer's money into it.

Here’s a novel idea:

How about we bring back jobs to America?

Just a thought.

Have you written Obama a letter?

Maybe he cam “proclaim” that Jobs magically appear here. He is the King you know, he can do anything.

A “novel idea” is nothing without funding, planning and implementation. After all that, you can only hope that with hard work and sacrifice that it succeeds.

He lives in an alternate universe. Everyone in our universe knows that you can’t dig your way out of a hole, that just makes a deeper hole.

You have climb out of a hole. Besides, didn’t we have a great big ole “recovery summer”. Didn’t the won stun us all with his incredible laser focus on jobs?

If his programs are so successful, how come we still need extended employment benefits?

Stupid is as Stupid does.
