Five talking pointers for clueless prez

Here are five things President Obama needs to do when he appears before Congress tonight for his State of the Union Address:

1. Take the voodoo out of your economics. Once and for all, explain to the country a coherent economic vision.

For the past year, your administration's solution has been, "Spend for our lives!"

Now, suddenly, it's "Batten down the spending hatches!"

Smart and honest people embrace the starkly divergent views about how to rescue a faltering economy, but you can't head off in both directions at once.

2. Since you appear to suddenly care about the deep economic maw into which our deficits are dragging us, you must do so much more than "freeze" a small portion of federal spending.

I don’t want Bozo anywhere near the economy. I think we’ve had enough fascism in the last year to last for decades.

I think his main talking point should be his immediate resignation for the good of the country and it’s citizens.

Obama financial freeze makes as much sense as freezing a ten year old allowance but at the same time giving a new credit card with limitless funding to a college student....bad parenting...no adult authority figure.
