...vowing to slip the economy into "overdrive"

Yeah, that always works so well from a dead stop.

Of course the economy will improve.

The communists have been booted from Congress and the capitalists (Repubs) have taken over.

And now Obama will take credit for everything the Repubs do.

That's why everything the Repubs and conservatives want to do, legislatively, needs to be tied to something the Liberals find anathema. They either pass it, or go down in the minds of the public as being the impediments to progress they are.

Coming up: More "laser-like" focus on bailing out government and union pension funds, and making sure the UN has enough money for fresh hookers.

Just in time for another media orgasm about the economy turning the corner. The media has claimed Obama policies have turned a corner so many times you would think it was a NASCAR event.

This is really a remarkable piece by Immelt in the Washington Post today. He seems to be saying his advice for Obama is simply to have other American CEO’s run their companies the way he runs GE:

We sure do crony capitalism. But it is more than that, the heavy touch of this administration is all over the place. Then they lighten up for their friends. Wal-Mart gets an exemption on ObamaCare, then makes silly announcements with Michelle. GE broacasts multiple Obama booster channels, agrees to by thousands of Volts, but gets many rewards in return. There’s so much backscratching going on it feels like we’re in the primate house at the zoo.

Is it prudent to put the car in overdrive when it is stuck in a ditch?
