Moseley: Stop talking like that. You've seen my posts before and I very much supported her in word and to the tune of $145 bucks for her campaign. But let me ask you if she didn't say this:

"Tragedy comes in threes," O'Donnell said. "Pearl Harbor, Elizabeth Edwards's passing and Barack Obama's announcement of extending the tax cuts, which is good, but also extending the unemployment benefits."

 

None of these are like each other and one of them is wholly inappropriate.

 

But hey, if you agree with that statement, more power to you as well pity.

Here is what Christine actually said. I was there.

QUOTE:

"The reason I say this is a tragedy is because his announcement today for economic recovery is more of a potpourri of sound bytes. It's like he took a little bit of what each party wanted and put it together. It's not constructive, it's not a solid plan constructed on sound economic principles."

"He is taking piecemeal parts of the full plan -- which you could say is cut squared -- tax cuts and spending cuts. So it's not going to work. He's going to say, see I catered to the Republicans but it didn't work. It didn't work because your plan is a result of the spin-doctors' chop shop. FRANKENOMICS if you will. You know, I mean Frankenstein, not Franken the comedian turned Senator, although both are applicable here."

"But what Barack Obama is doing -- by doing this piecemeal of potpouri of sound bites, instead of implementing a solid, well- thought out economic plan for recovery based on free-market principles -- what he is doing is not only collapsing our nation economically but he's weakening our collective character as a whole. He is weakening the collective character that defines us as a country, that defines us Americans."

UNQUOTE

O'Donnell later explained further that Obama and the Congress needed to cut spending in order to pay for the extension of unemployment benefits:

"If we're going to extend the jobless benefits we have got to cut spending programs and that's the flaw in his announcement," O'Donnell said. "That's the tragedy."

So tell us what part of that you disagree with?
