US economy had a 'heart attack': Obama
Agence France-Presse ^ | 8/30/11 | staff

US President Barack Obama says the US economy has suffered a "heart attack" and survived but is not recuperating quickly enough, as he geared up to unveil a major jobs plan. Obama appeared on the Tom Joyner Morning Show in what also appeared to be an effort to reach out to black voters (Snip) "This is a situation where the economy essentially had a heart attack, and the patient lived, and the patient is getting better, but it's getting better very slowly." Obama is preparing a major speech on jobs and deficit cutting next week which is designed to revive

This guy is a douchebag beyond compare. In a related article he says it’s Bush’s fault because he ran up a trillion dollars in debt during his presidency, not mentioning that Obama himself racked up half again that much in one year.

It’s pretty obvious to all but the most deranged leftist lunatic that Obama is purposely tanking the economy.

He could care less than less about improving anything that raises America’s standing in the world.

But the president argued that should Republicans, who have made no secret of their desire to deprive him of a second term, block his initiative, he will ask voters to make them pay in 2012.

More threats?

Bring it Barry!

Calling it a "heart attack" is a trivialization.
It's "hope and change" obamacare that's killing the patient.

“My attitude is that my job is to present the best plans possible. Congress needs to act.

“If Congress does not act, then I’m going to be going on the road and talking to folks, and this next election very well may end up being a referendum on whose vision of America is better.”

Good Lord, this condescending jerk needs to be kicked to the curb.

Obama isn't personally writing all the giddy, moronic stuff he comes out with. Others do it for him. That's why presidents have highly-paid speech-writing teams.

He's too stupid to dream up by himself the catch phrases inserted in his blatherings. He simply reads them off of TOTUS.

Presidential speech writers throughout history always try to come up with memorable phrases, like "I have a dream", "A day that will live in infamy", "Ask not what your country can do for you", and "Ich bin ein jelly doughnut".

Obama's speech writers can't pull off any good ones because they are the lamest group of lumpen commie doofuses in American history.

Rush pointed out today that Obama left his vacation on Martha's Vinyard last year with promises of a jobs program, just like this year.

Now where is Michelle and her troop?

Heart attack my arse.  It was deliberately RAPED.

 

Follow the....

http://www.campaignmoney.com/finance.asp?type=in&cycle=08&criteria=pritzker&fname=penny

 

Billionaire business mogul Penny Pritzker is a member of one of America’s richest families and was the Finance Chair for the presidential campaign of Barack Obama.  It was Pritzker that led the prolific, and illegal, fundraising that helped power Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.  She was the chair of Chicago-based Superior Bank’s board for five years. 

Pritzker was into subprime lending before it became all the rage starting in around 2000.  Prtizker's chairmanship was to concentrate on sub prime lending, principally on home mortgages, but for a while in subprime auto lending, too, after the Pritzkers' bank acquired its wholesale mortgage organization division, Alliance Funding, in December 1992.

Back then they called it "predatory lending."

Superior Bank went belly up in 2001 with over $1 billion in insured and uninsured deposits; 1,406 depositors lost much of their life savings.  This collapse came amid harsh criticism of how Superior’s owners promoted sub-prime home mortgages.

On Nov. 1 [2002] the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. pointed the finger at Ernst & Young, Superior’s auditor, in a fraud suit filed in federal court here.  But that action came two months after a group of Superior depositors accused the bank’s owners and directors, including two members of the Pritzker family, of racketeering....

[snip]

...Pritzker is chairman of Classic Residence by Hyatt, luxury senior living communities in 11 states; chairman of The Parking Spot, which owns and operates off-airport parking facilities in nine cities; chairman of the credit data company TransUnion and chairman of Pritzker Realty.  She also sits on the board of Global Hyatt and plays a role in numerous non-profit groups, including serving as chairman of the Olympic village portion of Chicago’s bid to win the 2016 Summer Games.
