On the subject of cars, it seems that GM may not be a loss to the government (and us) after all. I wonder if the One, or key advisors, knew what is in this article when he made the gamble to save GM:

Obama suggested we are in our “Sputnik moment”.

And…

Sputnik - meaning “satellite” and roughly translated as “fellow traveler.”

It follows…

Fellow traveler or fellow traveller is a derogatory term referring to a person who sympathizes with the beliefs of an organization or cooperates in its activities without maintaining formal membership in that particular group. In the early Soviet Union the approximate term was used without negative connotation to describe writers and artists sympathetic to the goals of the Russian Revolution who declined to join the Communist Party. The English-language phrase came into vogue in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s as a pejorative term for a sympathizer of Communism or particular Communist states, who was nonetheless not a “card-carrying member” of a Communist party. -wikipedia

So then…Obama is calling for our “communist sympathizing moment”?

As if that was a news flash or something!

Yes, I have. Some are better. Some are worse.

For being the richest nation on the planet, our infrastructure is horrendous. We are on the brink of having to destroy and completely rebuild many bridges and tunnels and roads because they were not properly maintained by the government and unions largely.

hard to innovate when you can’t get a patent and when you do, the Chinese steal it.

Just like Ford's "Whip Inflation Now" (WIN) pins ...

Don't forget another unfortunate acronym, Jimmah Carter's energy crisis program that was the "Moral Equivalent of War" (MEOW). The smartest man to occupy the WH (if you care to believe the liberal media) was apparently not smart enough to realize what the acronym was and how it could be turned against him in various humiliating ways.

There’s a more apt expression for Obama’s “WTF.”

I think that some of Sarah Palin's peeps were reading your post ...

I don’t know about stimulus to GE, but he is going to have a hard time promoting more government if he holds the budget to the same amount for the next 5 years. Of course, maybe he can find some waste to get rid of and free up some money that way.

I liked Sarah Palin’s response about “Winning The Future” (WTF). She said there were a lot of WTF moments in the speech!

Pelosi appeared on Greta and looked and sounded like an absolute fool.

I saw it and if Pelosi wasn't loaded on something (drugs or alcohol), she should have been. She was an absolute dolt!

State of the Union Address:

"We've bled the patient and although he looks worse, he really isn't worse, he's getting better, take my word for it. We will increase the bleeding until there's full recovery."

I know...I did that one last April, and at the time I didn't know how to delete it, correct it and repost it without breaking the link...so I hoped no one would notice...oh well.

Thanks

Still say you have a better gut than me.
By the end I would have been choking back the liver bile and heading for a toilet.

She manages this without drugs or alcohol. Amazing woman!

Wow I really felt like Pelosi was really trying way to hard to make Greta and whoever was watching this waxfaced numbskull to believe her. Greta looked like she was getting a bit uncomfortable with Pelosi and her begging. Pelosi is an absolute dingbat. I would love to see Bachmann or Palin debate her...would be like The Steelers playing a grade school team...

Missed it ..darn
