The only time anytime in the MSM or Washington asks “who’s going to pay for this” is when the subject of a tax cut is raised.

I was thinking this was satire also, and then I saw it was reported by the AP. Maybe it is.

Naw, he is to much of a narcissist and carnival barker to ever go away.

The recovery is always over there, just beyond the horizon.

Don’t see it? Keep looking.

Look some more.

Apparently he thinks of the economy as Dracula — and wants to pound the wooden stake of taxes into its chest to kill it once and for all.

What rising economy?

Ironically the unexpected drop in oil prices will eventually cause the economy to rebound. Too bad for Obama. He wants the economy to tank.

This is how liberals think:

Economy goes down, government spending should go up.
Economy goes up, government spending should go up.

FUBO! I’m staying my course of rice and beans and vastly limited economic activity until your sorry ass is GONE!

“This guy will be the center of attention for the rest of our lives.”

OMG! Nailed it! We’re STILL not free of Carter or the Clintons, not to mention all the damage that was done by Democrats post-Depression!

Why does STUPIDITY/EVIL have such a friggin’ long shelf-life?

obozo wants more money so he can give it to America's enemies, his muslim terrorist buddies. What is equally as sad as that is Congress will give it to him.
