Then I recognized the author as the last balanced governor of Maryland.
Really?
Perhaps Mr Ehrlich could give us some examples.
Obama said: “The private sector is doing fine”
Obama said: “The Economy is hurting”
By my math: Public sector + Private sector = the economy
If the private sector is doing fine and the economy is hurting then - to Obama - the public sector is where the problems lie.
See, he didn’t really “walk back” his statement about the private sector being “fine”. He just did some liberal word play to make it sound like he did.
I wouldn’t call it a gaffe but Obama simply giving his opinion based upon how he desires the world to be.
He hates individual, free enterprise capitalism and his various actions at stamping it out with the expected downturn of jobs being lost is great in his opinion.
At the same time government job growth is increasing. He loves government controlling the capital of this country and making government bigger allows that happen.
It would be nice to have a prez who loves free-enterprise capitalism over state-controlled capitalism but were stuck with him until this November.
Even if Romney is elected, since he is a Progressive just like Obama, don’t expect it to change much.
I will dispute that. I have grown weary of the polite stipulation of Obama's (or anyone else's) intelligence on the matter of the economy. The approach of the utopian left has been tried. Repeatedly. And it has failed. And every single time it is tried it results in totalitarianism and the death of hundreds, thousands and often millions of individual human beings who somehow did not fit the ruling power's definition of a good citizen.
So, IMHO, anyone who believes in the so-called progressive solution is either:
a. deluded and insane
b. willfully attempting to subvert the freedom, liberty and well-being of the individual
c. ignorant of history
or
c. STUPID.
There is no such thing as "intelligent, but..."
Hell, he can't write a coherent paragraph.
Oh, I'll dispute that contention! I haven't seen ANY evidence of intelligence in Barack Obama!
"What they'll say is, 'Well it costs too much money,' but you know what?
It would cost, about.
It it would cost about the same as what we would spend. It.
Over the course of 10 years it would cost what it would costs us.
All right. Okay. We're going to do it. It would cost us about the same as it would cost for about… hold on one second. I can't hear myself. But I'm glad you're fired up, though. I'm glad. "~Barack Obama
“That the president is an intelligent man is beyond dispute.”
Provide me some evidence. As it is now, in a court of law, he cannot be convicted of passing any class or graduating any school because no records are public. NONE.
Why does everyone think Obama is intelligent? Obama strikes me as one of the “Hollywood Intellectuals”, one of these cool cats who sits and waxes poetic about national affairs but actually only has a HS education, and it becomes glaringly obvious when he is taken off-script.
His goal is turn American into a fascist state where big business in conjunction with big unions controlled by government....run the country....
So in his mind....the private sector is doing great because it exists...
That the president is an intelligent man is beyond dispute.
really?
