BO raised twice as much money as McCain did. Where’d it all come from ?
“Are you implying 53% of Americans are dumber than a box of rocks?”
Box of rocks? No. Bag of hammers? Quite possibly.
Somewhere in the afterlife, snake oil and tonic salesman from the late 1800's/early 1900's are kicking themselves, fuming over their loss, this fresh batch of sheep they didn't get to shear...
Even as sarcasm, your post is an insult to boxes of rocks everywhere. ;-)
Fewer than 68% of eligible voters are in the labor force. After accounting for all taxes and all entitlements, less than half of eligible voters in the labor force bear any appreciable tax burden for the cost and size of government.
Therefore, more than 66% of eligible voters will not see an increase in their taxes and depending upon their positions in the various entitlement Ponzi schemes, may actually perceive an immediate, short term, payoff for expansion of the size of government.
However, for these voters, the box of rocks score higher on the IQ test because there is an outside chance the box of rocks may perceive the folly of voting for Obama, something the 53% who voted for him can never understand.
Total government spending (federal, state, and local) is now greater than 35% of GDP and total government debt is at least 5.5 times (and may be as high as 10 times if "off the books" spending and future entitlements are properly accounted) the total assets of the United States. Continuing increases in either is going to result in dramatic and immediate reductions to our GDP.
The only hope for our economy is immediate and massive reductions, not increases, of government expenditures at all levels.
That is a reality that Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and the 53% of voters who supported them are incapable of comprehending.
Bush was supposed to be dumber than a box of rocks. And now Obama is admitting the economy will get worse under his leadership. So what does that make him? Dumber than a sack full of dust?
