Warren ought to know. He helped put the economy in the dumpster with his endorsement of One Big Assed Mistake, America.

Was Warren speaking through his mouth or his Obama supporting rectum?

A damn shame, as Warren’s dad Howard was the Ron Paul of his day.

Nice to see that the blatantly obvious is finally coming clear to the senile Warren Buffett.

There will be no financial recovery until Obozo is out of office.

Buffet gave a ringing endorsement of a second term for Bernanke, something Obambi refused to do yesterday. This WH pays particular attention to image, that cannot be a good sign if Buffet:

* raves about Bernanke when The One refuses

* states the economy is in a “shambles”

* doesn’t see any green shoots

* sees inflation coming

* calls Cap and Trade a “huge tax” and “regressive”

No big deal, but you think Warren Buffet giving a live interview on CNBC about the state of the economy and saying he doesn’t see any green shoots, etc... is not breaking news? Then what is?

Nice move Warren, putting your boy Hussein into power.

Obama is an economic Shiva, the “Destroyer of Worlds.”
