"Mark Shields commented, "How would you like to be a Democratic member of the House fighting for your life right now, getting hit over the head for having voted for the Stimulus bill, and have the President say in the New York Times Sunday Magazine, 'there's no such thing as shovel-ready projects'?"
There's no such thing as shovel-ready projects? As if we didn't know.
There might not have been any shovel-ready projects back then, but I think there’s a few pick-ready projects at the local correctional facility.
Well, I guess nearly anything the ‘rats say is shovel-ready ... to shovel all the BS off you when they finish speaking.
Barry may be a liar but he sure knows how to make his liberal “male” supporters faint.
There are some shovel ready projects, but nothing employing millions of people. I have noticed a lot of re-paving and sewer work being done around here over the past year, but usually involving 10-20 people working on site.
“He played his Democratic majority in Congress for suckers.”
This is nothing but an attempt to take heat off the losing dems.
Give me a break. This is like saying the driver of the getaway car how no idea that he just participated in a bank robbery.
The dems were involved in this up to their earlobes.
Obama, Reid, Pelosi, MSM and the rest of those jackasses played America for suckers.
10 more days to victory.
The only shovel ready jobs that Obama created are the ones that shovel all the crap coming out of his Administration.
Actually, I think in this case we’re seeing a manifestation of Obama’s ignorance and stupidity rather than his cupidity. Quite frankly, this is worse than being a liar; at least if you’re a liar it means you have a command of the facts and simply choose to misrepresent them. If you’re genuinely ignorant and stupid, then that means the facts of reality elude you altogether. A liar can be detected and their motives for lying deduced. There’s nothing of value at all to be discerned from an ignorant and stupid person.
Who would you rather be governed by, the brilliant and duplicitous Nixon or the stupid and ignorant Obama?
“Obama’s Gaffe”? Michael Kinsley defined gaffe, as when a politician tells the truth. This certainly fits here.
Dear Mr Obama,
Perhaps Bush and the republicans had a role in our Financial problems. Even so, I must ask how wise it is to declare “shovel ready jobs” as the solution for getting out of the ditch we are in. seems to me that your actually proposing we “dig our way out”.
