Thoughts of Obama From Bama

Week 148: “Veto This Mr. President”

I'm a piece of work, I'm iron and lace I'm shy, I'm right up in your face
I'm all dumbfounded, stubborn as an ass
Sharp as an arrow in a pile of glass.

I'm a sweetheart, genius, reckless jerk.
Lord, have mercy, I'm a piece of work
I'm a piece of work, Jimmy Buffett

With the abject failure of the so called Congressional “Super Committee”, the twelve poor dumb pilgrims charged with finding a paltry $1.2 trillion in debt reduction over the next ten years as part of the debt ceiling deal, our Record Breaking Spender of Other People’s Money-In-Chief wasted no time at all firing up the ole tele-prompter, hitting the airwaves blaming the GOP and advancing his racist, generational and class warfare campaign agenda. His only chance at reelection as running on his dismal economic and bend over, grab his ankles, thank you sir may I have another citizen of the world failed foreign policy record will surely lead to untold heart-ache and calamity for the Obama faithful.

In a particularly mean spirited and belligerent address Mr. Obama really took Congressional Republicans to the proverbial political woodshed repeatedly accusing them of putting party ahead of Country in their deliberations. Of course he conveniently forgot to mention there were also 6 Democrats on the set up for failure “Super Committee“ and last time we checked former boxer and currently punch drunk Harry Reid still heads up the Democrat Majority in the US Senate.

From a series of typical ludicrous remarks following are a few examples of his most ridiculous and misleading comments:

• Good afternoon. As you all know, last summer I signed a law that will cut nearly $1 trillion of spending over the next 10 years. Part of that law also required Congress to reduce the deficit by an additional $1.2 trillion by the end of this year. (to cut spending $2.2 trillion over the next 10 years represents a 2% reduction or there abouts. Anybody who thinks tax increases are necessary to achieve this objective is crazier than an outhouse rat)
• In September, I sent them a detailed plan that would have gone above and beyond that goal. It’s a plan that would reduce the deficit by an additional $3 trillion, by cutting spending, slowing the growth of Medicare and Medicaid, and asking the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share. (fair share-code phrase for tax high wage earners and massive wealth redistribution)
• In addition to my plan, there were a number of other bipartisan plans for them to consider from both Democrats and Republicans, all of which promoted a balanced approach. This kind of balanced approach to reducing our deficit — an approach where everybody gives a little bit, and everyone does their fair share — is supported by an overwhelming majority of Americans — Democrats, independents, and Republicans. It’s supported by experts and economists from all across the political spectrum. And to their credit, many Democrats in Congress were willing to put politics aside and commit to reasonable adjustments that would have reduced the cost of Medicare, as long as they were part of a balanced approach. (he used the words fair share 4,545 times in a 4 minute speech-code phrase for tax high wage earners and massive wealth redistribution)
• So when everybody gets back from Thanksgiving and I complete another tax payer funded cross country campaign swing and a few dozen rounds of golf it ‘will be time to appear to get some work done for the American people. All around the country, Americans are working hard to live within their means and meet their responsibilities. And I know they expect Washington to do the same.

In addition to this same ole, chock full of lies, boring, boring, boring rhetoric the President did make one new just downright troubling remark about the automatic triggers that will kick in with the Committee’s failure to reach an agreement. $1.2 trillion of mandatory spending cuts, half from across the boards domestic programs and half from an already decimated defense budget.

This is what our reluctant Commander-in-Chief had to say about these reckless, irresponsible, unprecedented and dangerous spending cuts to the defense budget:

• Now, the question right now is whether we can reduce the deficit in a way that helps the economy grow, that operates with a scalpel, not with a hatchet, and if not, whether Congress is willing to stick to the painful deal that we made in August for the automatic cuts. Already, some in Congress are trying to undo these automatic spending cuts.
• My message to them is simple: No. I will veto any effort to get rid of those automatic spending cuts to domestic and defense spending. There will be no easy off ramps on this one.

Barack Husain Obama has already committed several boneheaded and most likely impeachable acts since taking the Oath of Office including:

1. Taking justified what for from a French President about his negligent and Socialist fiscal policies
2. Running up just south of $5 trillion in additional debt in just 148 weeks
3. Giving our enemy a date certain troop withdrawal schedule
4. Passing state secrets to his comrades in Moscow, Beijing, and Havana (if he actually hasn’t done this he sure as hell been thinking about it)

Now he’s threatening to veto any bill that would maintain our national defense and security because he doesn’t want to give Republicans any political advantage. Ain’t no never mind about it Mr. Obama’s most impeachable infraction to date.

President Obama’s veto threat is the epitome of irresponsible, reckless, blatant political expediency. The only veto we should be thinking about is vetoing his happy ass out of office.
