The Most Fiscally Irresponsible Government in U.S. History

THE INCREDIBLY SHRINKING MAN

OhBummer is a boob and a fool for attacking the American Tea Partiers. He is annoyed that they’re not grateful to him for hijacking the American healthcare system --- the greatest act of vandalism perpetrated upon the American people since a gang of jihadi frootloops and loonytoons hijacked some planes and crashed them into the World Trade Center towers, and the Pentagon, and made a failed attempt to crash into the White House and instead drilled a hole in a Pennsylvania farm thanks to some very courageous American passengers.

And --- now widely seen for what he is --- the president presents a problem for the Democrat-captured media. They pump out his propaganda for him --- and, like the opinion monitors in Ayn Rand’s novel, “Atlas Shrugged” --- they are dodging brickbats and rotten vegetables.

He’s pompous, pampered, and pretentious --- a pseudo-intellectual fop. He’s a glorified, smooth-lyin’ dandy, and slicker than Sick Willie Clinton. He’s a dictator-on-the-make, a bloodsxcking, predatory humanitarian thug, and a low-down skunk.

He’s a fraud and a swindler. He lies when he inhales and he lies when he exhales; his oxygen is the falsification of reality. He lies, placidly and laconically, as if deception were a soporific drug.

He’s a friend of the poor and the downtrodden --- indeed, you can hear the milk of human kindness sloshing around inside of him when he walks.

He declares himself the post-racial leader --- “Let me be clear!” he intones --- and he hides behind his race, daring his critics to put their reputation for fairness at risk.

He pauses to ponder the portent of his propaganda --- and it is fakery; he smiles and his mendacity comes shining through.

Shake hands with Barak Hushpuppy OhBummer --- “The Mistake of ‘08” --- the illegal alien squatter in the White House --- and America’s first and last Arab president. Now count your fingers.

The lead article, "The Most Fiscally Irresponsible Government in U.S. History" has already been posted, but I wanted to bring attention to the comments section following.

Some of the strongest anti-Obama/nomics commentary I've ever read is contained there. Some of the arguments in favor of cutting the federal gov't budget to the bare minimum, and for downsizing the beast are just brilliant.

Interspersed throughout are a few exceptionally lame liberal posts, and most have been slammed without mercy by the adults posting to the thread.

Folks, people out there are PISSED OFF, so it's not just us Freepers.

There are several hundred posts on that one thread, and 90% of them are excellent reading. I probably read at least 600 - they are that good.

Have a look.

I think the sewers are running with Kool-Aid right now. It's unbelievable how negative the commentary about the Democrat economic meltdown is at that thread.

Mort Zuckerman's head must be spinning after reading some of the commentary over there. Folks are unglued, and off the hook!

Most of those posts are simply outstanding.

Thanks for posting this, Windflier.
I found this quote from Reagan embedded in the comments.
“The fact is, we’ll never build a lasting economic recovery by going deeper into debt at a faster rate than we ever have before. ... Inflation is the cause of recession and unemployment. And we’re not going to have real prosperity or recovery until we stop fighting the symptoms and start fighting the disease. There’s only one cause for inflation — government spending more than government takes in. The cure is a balanced budget. Ah, but they tell us, 80 percent of the budget is uncontrollable. It’s fixed by laws passed by Congress. Well, laws passed by Congress can be repealed by Congress. And, if Congress is unwilling to do this, then isn’t it time we elect a Congress that will?”

—Ronald Reagan

This would be among my very favorites!!

"Barry Soetero, or whatever his real name is, treats the Presidency as though he has hit the lottery, taking multiple vacations, eating lobster and caviar while the rest of our country suffers, and dispensing billions of dollars from his executive slush fund to all of his cronies. He and his family long ago gave up any attempt to pretend that they have any respect for the office, exiting Air Force One dressed as any 'hood rats' would normally dress, and let's not forget Obama's famous "crotch salute". He has foregone many, if not most, of the traditional functions that the President historically attends, cancelling the Boy Scout Jamboree at the last second because he got a chnace to be on TV on "The View", and continue campaigning, which he has never stopped."

Yeah.....he's only had 6 vacations in the last year and a half. I'd say that's working pretty hard for a CIC, wouldn't you?

Tell you what....I wish he'd just go on vacation for the rest of his one and only term. The country would be a lot better off if he did.

I liked this idea from the comments:
“Radio (East) Berlin in 1990 had the ***** to broadcast an apology for lying to the world for the previous four decades before going off the air. Could USNEWS at least show the same decency before being sold for a dollar itself? “

Great Reagan quote. I told you those folks were on it over there.

Some brilliant commentary going on. Like a skyscraper burning down, it's so hot and angry.

If those comments are indicative of the general mood of the country, the Democrats are in for something much worse than a shellacking in November.

I've been saying for over a year now, that the mood of the country is becoming more and more angry at what the Dems have (and are doing) to us. The Tea Parties sprang up in response to their multiple transgressions against the people, our laws, and our Constitution, but in my opinion, the Tea Parties are just the tip of the iceberg.

Someone commented recently that "the country is in a pre-revolutionary mood", and they're right. Civil order across the country is hanging on by a slender thread, which could break at any time.

Unbelievably, Obama and his Democrat crime syndicate seem completely oblivious to how close they've pushed this country to open rebellion. They're literally playing with fire, yet only now seem even slightly concerned by the dismal polling numbers they're seeing.

They're like the French aristocracy, just prior to the French Revolution. They're not worried in the least about their skins, and are paying no attention to the increasing rumbling going on right outside the palace gates.

Here’s one who defines Bo ....from that thread....

“He’s pompous, pampered, and pretentious -— a pseudo-intellectual fop. He’s a glorified, smooth-lyin’ dandy, and slicker than Sick Willie Clinton. He’s a dictator-on-the-make, a bloodsxcking, predatory humanitarian thug, and a low-down skunk.

He’s a friend of the poor and the downtrodden -— indeed, you can hear the milk of human kindness sloshing around inside of him when he walks.

He declares himself the post-racial leader -— “Let me be clear!” he intones -— and he hides behind his race, daring his critics to put their reputation for fairness at risk.

Heh....I see that the same post caught both our eyes. Take a gander at the top of the thread.

I think you’re right. It’s astounding that Pelousi et al. find it inconceivable that Tea Partiers would show up without getting paid—how much they are not understanding! (I’ll be painting my signs in the morning & will be out in the afternoon. If I had the money I’d be in DC.)

Just got back from reading more ....pretty informative overall from those I read...some good minds there who have it well figured out.

I’m going to read most of them...the few who spoke favorably of BO had nothing to say worth reading...just the sme blah blah blah the media puts out.
