Obama Is Bankrupting America
So says the Congressional Budget Office (h/t – Wall St. Journal):
As for the deficit, CBO shows that over the first three years of the Obama Presidency, 2009-2011, the federal government will borrow an estimated $3.7 trillion. That is more than the entire accumulated national debt for the first 225 years of U.S. history.
And how does our President define leadership on this and every other issue? By blaming Bush of course.

Bush is forcing Congress to borrow that bribe money from China!

But haven’t you heard, he is freezing 11% of the Federal Budget. All future massive spending increases must now come from the remaining 89% of the Federal Budget.

On a related note, his SOTU called for an end to “Washington Gimmicks.”

can’t wait to see Tano spin this one

I really, really thought that Obama was totally transparent last night. The man has no shame and will demagogue in The State of The Union for all of history to read and parse. He was particularly idiotic when he stood over the Supreme Court and lied about the foreign corporations being able to enter the American political system because of the court’s recent ruling. The man is supposed to be a Constitutional law scholar and be lectures us through the use of an unmitigated LIE.
Of course, Tano and the rest will say the teleprompter made him do it, and they may well be right. He may have been reading his crap sandwich for the first time last night. He may not have known what words he was programmed to say.
But, I give him lower credit than that. I think he is so disconnected from the actual minds of little, insignificant Americans that he thinks his Jeremiah Wright rhetoric rises to the gates of Allah, or Gaia or Whatshisname.
The man has cemented the deal for Glenn Beck to go to three hours a day just exposing his carny spiel and illustrating the grim truth.

The following story is a bit off-topic, but you’ll see in the end why it is on.
I live in a leftie city and at the gym, I always wear a pro-liberty shirt of some kind, or an anti-tyranny one (e.g., anti-Che). It brings my fellow liberty-lovers out of the woodwork. I see this one straight dude on Wednesday nights. Last Wednesday, he was grinning a soft-eyed grin of happy disbelief that I’ve never seen on him before. Scott Brown had just won. Last night, a week later – and also after the SCOTUS decision in favor of free speech, which we talked about – he was still grinning the same grin. It was beautiful.
Where am I going with this? Well, liberty lovers everywhere are waking up from the long, dark socialist night and realizing how strong they/we are.

LOL
Umm… Norman Hsu, anyone? Or the earlier Chinagate?

And last night when I was at the gym, the SOTU was on the locker room TV….and people were openly and loudly making fun of and criticizing Black Narcissist.
Would not have happened last year. In barely twelve months, Obama has managed to undo nearly forty years of liberal brainwashing.

Jeez, am I the only one who doesn’t go to the gym?

“lied about the foreign corporations being able to enter the American political system because of the court’s recent ruling. ”
Actually, its not a lie. Foreign corporations may well be able to funnel money through their American subsidiaries under this ruling. The ruling does not explicitly permit this, but it does not explicitly allow it either. In other words, the door seems to be left open to it.

TGC: No. But my version of cardio is pushing a 22″ mower for 5 hours per week.
and I understand the sentiment, given the reaction of my Gay Chorus friends on Facebook. . .

I love how Tano failed to address the damning debt number… I was hoping for a wan “b…b…b…Bush” of some sort, but I guess CBO numbers, being the Holy Grail of the healthcare bill, can’t be refuted on other issues until they are no longer useful for the Regressives
Comment by Retcon — January 28, 2010 @ 8:37 pm - January 28, 2010
Let’s start here and be fair: The ruling does not explicitly permit this, but it does not explicitly allow it either. Obviously, Tano is working on an old computer and this mistake occurred. Had he had access to a new computer it would have changed “allow” to “ban.” That is the being fair part. I didn’t have to do it.
But I love the unconditional “its not a lie” backed by may well and seems. It is this type of towering logic that makes one cower.
Comment by heliotrope — January 29, 2010 @ 9:19 am - January 29, 2010
Actually, as shown here it’s a perfect example of lies by omission.
Much like Tano’s posts.

Livewire,
You are so nasty. You have linked to actual legal parsing. That is not fair. We are dealing with “seems” and “may well” and you are ignoring our important feelings. Fie on you and your constant relying on facts and educated analysis.
