by Mira Oberman Mira Oberman – Fri Apr 15, 12:57 am ET CHICAGO (AFP) – US President Barack Obama accused Republicans of wanting to turn the United States into a "Third World" country as he rallied support for his reelection campaign.

The attack came a day after Obama savaged Republican budget plans and unveiled his $4-trillion deficit reduction drive that aims to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans in order to preserve key social services.

I guess President Steve feels like Republicans are infringing on his Party's patent on that.

Ditto! He, King Barack Hussein Obama, is doing everything in his power to turn my country into another Haiti.

. . . What a shame.

That would be a nice improvement. Can we drill for oil like Nigeria or Brazil Mr Present?

Pray for America

Maybe subconsciously he wants America to feel more like home, like the old days in Kenya.

Amen.

I wonder what the unemployment rate is in Haiti and other Turd World countries.

I know under President Bush it got down to 4.5%. What did it get to under President Steve before they changed the formula for determining the rate? At least 10%. "Officially"! Ha!

Leftist-wing projection alert! It’s Obama’s plan that will turn America into a third world country (as well as his most ardent desire).

Amnesty for 20 million illegals will surely make us a 3rd world nation. Is that part of Obama’s thinking?

But what stuck in our craw was that "Third World" crack. Excuse us, isn't that the way we've been heading under Obama? Consider for a moment these trends:

• Real earnings have fallen for five straight months, and are down 1% since the end of last year.

• Consumer price inflation is growing at a 6.1% annual rate over the last three months, while producer prices are rising an even-faster 13%. According to John Williams of the Shadow Government Statistics website, if we measure consumer prices the way we did before 1992, inflation is now running at 10% a year.

• The U.S. has added $6 trillion to its debt under Obama, a sure sign of being on the road to Third World status. Three years ago, the U.S. had $7.9 trillion in debt. Today, we have $14 trillion. Bankrupt, hyperinflated Zimbabwe couldn't do any better.

How sad that even our president doesn’t know what “third world” means. If I may, the term was coined after WWII to describe those countries which were neither aligned with the “free” world nor the communist. Thus, the free, communist and the third world. The term has nothing to do with wealth or poverty.

Which of Obama’s policies don’t destroy American productivity?
Obamacare, over-regulation and taxation all mitigate against productivity and encourage dependence on government.
THIS is what will drive America to third world status.
If you read any of his books, it is clear this is his objective.

Why link to Drudge rather than the original source? Anybody going to Drudge has to look around for the link you are posting and that link will be gone in a day. And since Drudge (and you) changed the original headline, your search probably failed to notice the previous postings.

Thanks. And that was supposed to read, “left-wing projection alert.” The damn auto-correct on this iPhone is pissing me off. Makes people sound half-literate.

I guess if that’s the Republicans’ goal, they aren’t being very efficient about it. Not nearly as efficient as the Democrats are, anyway.
