Looks like Obama is going to get the Republican members of the “Gang of 8” on the phone again, this time for this.

The unemployment rate in 1938 was almost exactly the same as in 1932 despite billions being spent by FDR for government make work programs.

Socialism: The government OWNS the means of production.

Fascism: A variant of socialism in which the government CONTROLS, rather than OWNS, the means of production.

With Barack, it is ALWAYS about CONTROLLING the means of production...he will give something up...but in return, he wants control.

Because BHO is ideologically...

...wait for it...

A Fascist.

I would love to see the hissy fit he’d throw if republicans took over the senate. And what he would say to the people.

At this point it's apparent that whatever bait he's dangling is going to have a hook in it. He'll try to find some way to use taxpayer money to bribe the companies to provide jobs for his supporters, and when that money runs out, make them keep those workers and get rid of the normal people. No good can come of this. It just ain't in him.

Yep - a "promise" to back it is a bit different than actually allowing it (another "I was for it before I pulled the football away" scam). Plus, even if he allowed it to become law, he would just decide it couldn't be implemented.

He's gone rogue and surrounded him with miscreants who adore the rogue status.

We could cause him to meltdown in front of cameras and I would love it!

Let me guess. Spend/print more money. Raise taxes. More green energy/education “investment”. Rich people/corporations/Republicans evil.

Did I miss anything important?
