WTF? It hasn't STARTED you asshat! This "man" is smoking crack in the White House! Seriously, what kind of idiot would say this? Its like saying: hey, eat dirt, its yummy! Or watching your 6 year old say they didn't eat the cookies, with chocolate chips stuck to their cheeks.... Good LORD. This emperor has no clothes.
.... but I could only respond:
I know, I know, this sounds utterly insane.
But in a way, OTrauma is right. If you default on all your debts, your debt is reduced. And we are halfway to complete default.
The ChiComs won’t like us defaulting. But I’m sure they’d take all our Air Craft Carriers and Boomers in lieu of cash.
Socialist economics is now King Obama’s updated New-Math.
It’s a MATH PROBLEM. They all have it.
1 + 1 = 17.
What planet is Obama on???
Can’t govern? In over your head?
Simply change the narrative. Use the willing sycophants in the media to carry your water for you.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
All this 10-year things are BOGUS
Didn’t he mean, “The debt of job reduction is almost done.”
In the real world, in fact, many of their “cuts” cut nothing at all. The Transportation Department got credit for “cutting” a $280 million tunnel that had been canceled six months earlier. It also “cut” a $375,000 road project that had been created by a legislative typo, on a road that did not exist....
Warren Meyer, Congressional Ethics, February 10, 2013.
Taxes are set by statute and regulation, so last years. “Budget cuts” are in the annual budget and have a live of one year, or until the next budget.
Promises of tax now, cut later have NEVER been kept and anyone agreeing to such a plan is complicit in the deception.
HW Bush’s tax hike was to be balanced with a spending cut “later” that never happened.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Wow - that was fast!
Looks like the right man was elected.
(/s - do I really need it?)
Just a perfect example of:
Figures don’t lie but liars figure.
“Obama: Job of debt reduction nearly done”
Wow.....To think I missed it. Well that “Austerity” stuff wasn’t really that bad after all. I can’t understand why the Greeks and Spaniards are whining so much about it.
No, no, no. He was mis-quoted. What he really said:
“Job of economic destruction nearly done.”
IOW, he has taken a play from the Clinton book of governing and, essentially, is saying "I have reduced all the debt I intended to reduce"{.
(For those who may not recall, Clinton said "I kept all the promises I intended to keep".)
The most disgusting part—which is why the SOTU speech is worthless—is that Obama will say pretty much the same on Tuesday night and the lapdog Republicans will rise with their RAT betters and give acclamation to that joke of an assertion.
I don’t know about our air craft carriers (since the ChiComs are now building their own brand new ones anyway).... but maybe they’ll take them, yes. The CHiComs will probably first take all our natural resources in repayment of our huge debt to them (you know, the resources Obama won’t let Americans develop or use).
And some additional properties to boot.
Sometimes I think he’s evil, and sometimes I think he’s nuts. I know it could be both. Today I’m leaning toward Bidenshi! crazy.
