Week 138: “Candidate Obama’s Joint Session of Congress 2012 Campaign Kick Off Speech By the Numbers”

Geometry and trigonometry and if they don't tax your brain there are numbers to big to be named
Numerical precision is a science with a mission
and I think its' gonna drive me insane

Parents fighting with their children
and the congress can't agree
teachers and their students are all jousting constantly
management and labor keep rattling old sabres
quacking like those Peabody ducks

Math suks (quack quack), Math suks (quack quack)
You don't even have to spell it
All you have to do is yell it
Math suks, that's right, Math suks, you got it
Sometime times I think that I don't know that much
but Math suks Math Suks, Jimmy Buffett

Candidate Obama’s joint session of Congress 2012 campaign kickoff speech last Thursday evening was a shameless abuse of Presidential privilege and decorum. Touted as a speech addressing the Country’s ongoing fiscal calamity in actuality it was nothing more than the President’s Socialist campaign platform for the 2012 election.

Labeled the American Jobs Bill the President proposed yet another massive wealth redistribution scheme to kick start the economy. Stimulus and shovel ready weren’t specifically mentioned but his remarks sure enough sounded awfully similar to the Administration’s 2009 trillion dollar Recovery Act that has left the Country teetering on the brink of economic catastrophe.

Following is a brief summary of the President’s remarks by the numbers:

1. 1st President in the history of the Union to blatantly abuse the time honored tradition of only addressing a joint session of Congress for State of the Union or other speeches of a truly momentous nature. FDR’s Pearl Harbor, McArthur’s farewell, W’s 9/11 speeches and now Barack Husain Obama’s 2012 campaign kickoff address. A historical travesty of Obamic proportions.
2. 4,156 words
3. 47 pauses for applause
4. 32 and ½ minutes in duration
5. 303 lines
6. 147 paragraphs
7. Chock full of 151 lies. (According to bipartisan watch dog group Liar, Liar Pants on Fire)
8. 27.5 lies per word
9. 8.2 lies per minute
10. 2 lies per line
11. 1 lie per paragraph
12. $500 billion in proposed new criminal deficit spending of other people’s money
13. $120.3 million per word
14. $15.4 billion per minute
15. $1.65 billion per line
16. $3.4 billion per paragraph
17. $3.5 billion per lie
18. 92 class warfare remarks
19. 38 race warfare remarks
20. 142 on the 1-100 hypocrisy scale
21. 28 demands for Congress to pass this mockery of a so called jobs bill immediately
22. 1outburst of loud and raucous laughter when the President made the following outlandish statement – “This isn't political grandstanding. This isn't class warfare.”
23. 1 particularly shameless lie claiming this half trillion dollar fiscal fiasco is already paid for
24. 0 offers to resign from office for gross/criminal negligence and incompetence; advocating Marxist/Socialist policies that further empower the central Government and erode our freedom and liberties; consistently lying, telling tall tales, and intentionally misleading all us poor dumb pilgrims who’s taxes are paying for the all this corrupt and boneheaded behavior Mr Obama and his liberal comrades in DC seem to take to as naturally as a duck to water, VP Biden to a bottle of scotch, Democrats expenditure of other people’s money, and Nancy Pelosi’s propensity to make the most dumb ass of remarks

Four days later Mr Obama followed up on his claim his new jobs bill was all paid for by informing us during another made for TV propaganda session of his plans to raise the revenue by taxing the rich and closing so called corporate loop holes on corporate jet owners and all those evil oil companies. In other words our”Financial Wizard-in-Chief“again wants to raise taxes on the very same folk that create most of the jobs in this country.

In the words of Mr. Buffett just like math the President’s proposed American Jobs Bill suks. By the numbers, content and/or merit the President’s “Son of Stimulus 1“Bill ain’t gonna create private sector job 1. No sir, no way, no how.

Week 137: “I’m Sorry”

When the telephone woke me this morning, I'm sorry was the first thing I said
From that point it get's a bit fuzzy, thinking with half a head
Putting the pieces together, it's shocking to flash on the past
'Cause when you are known as a rascal, you can bet you showed off your ass

I was so bad last night, I'll be good for the rest of my life
Now I'm telling you and this is the truth
I have finally seen the light
From now on I'm going to act right, I was so bad last night "I Was So Bad Last Night", Jerry Jeff Walker

Hot damn, Lord have mercy, bless his little Marxist/Socialist heart our “Great Orator of Soaring Empty Rhetoric-in-Chief “is gonna make another major economics/jobs speech. Sure enough don’t rightly know if this is his 20th or 30th address on the subject but we are sure one more lecture from the “Anointed One” ain’t likely to improve the dire fiscal crisis we’re currently experiencing thanks to Mr. Obama.

Making what’s usually a relatively infrequent appearance before a joint session of Congress expectations are running high the President will propose and advocate several bold and bipartisan solutions to our Country’s Obama induced financial train wreck. Wishful thinking as this die hard, hard core, left wing extremist, ultra liberal, Socialist revolutionary ain’t about to change his radical dreams of fundamentally transforming our great nation into an European style Communist State. No sir, no way, no how.

So instead of the same ole class, generational, and racial warfare; blame the weather, natural disasters and W whining; demonizing the GOP, the Tea Party, and corporate jet owners all we want to hear from you at this time Mr. President are two simple words. I’m sorry.

Probably wouldn’t change our current predicament, enhance job growth and/or an economic recovery but it sure as hell would be music to our ears and a sight to behold to hear an apology roll off those arrogant lips and see even a frog hair’s worth of humility on that belligerent, egotistical and rapidly aging Presidential face. We fully realize there ain’t a snowball’s chance in hell the President would actually take any responsibility for his poor judgment and misguided ambitions but hope springs eternal.

We have no expectation what so ever the President will man up and beg for our forgiveness for the thousands of boneheaded decisions and policy initiatives put out by this White House. However, in the highly unlikely event Mr. Obama reconsiders following is a partial list abundantly deserving of Presidential consideration for rendering an apology at his joint session of Congress address instead of just one more disingenuous, sanctimonious, riddled with lies, boring, teleprompter initiated, hyper partisan, political diatribe:

• I’m sorry for my nefarious and clandestine intentions to transform this country from within into the world’s greatest Marxist/Socialist Super Power
• I’m sorry for my almost criminal lack of leadership, management, and administrative experience
• I’m sorry for putting and keeping millions of you poor dumb pilgrims out of work
• I’m sorry for my blame America first attitude
• I’m sorry for my obsession with redistributing the wealth
• I’m sorry I selected a VP who’s dumber than a bag full of hammers
• I’m sorry for my addiction to spending other people’s money
• I’m sorry for my inability to be truthful and honest
• I’m sorry for blaming others, especially W, for my incompetence and failures
• I’m sorry for shoving a government takeover of our healthcare system down the Country’s throat
• I’m sorry I named the First Pooch Bolshevik
• I’m sorry for my corrupt, heavy handed, Chicago style politics
• I’m sorry for piling up more debt in only 2.5 years than all of my predecessors combined
• I’m sorry for allowing my wife to become the Country’s Food Police
• I’m sorry for my corrupt relationship and shameless favoritism with the labor unions
• I’m sorry for being considered a joke by the rest of the world
• I’m sorry for illegally skirting Congress and allowing amnesty for criminal illegal immigrants
• I’m sorry for appointing a terrorist sympathizer as Attorney General
• I’m sorry for my anti-business/private sector views
• I’m sorry for intestinally raising energy prices to promote my green agenda
• I’m sorry for unfairly accusing my political opponents of being unpatriotic
• I’m sorry for making a tax cheat the Treasury Secretary
• I’m sorry for justifiably catching what for from the French for my irresponsible fiscal policies
• I’m sorry for providing aid and comfort to the enemy publically announcing a date certain for withdrawing troops
• I’m sorry for losing our AAA credit rating
• I’m sorry for appointing two ultra liberal judicial activist to the Supreme Court
• I’m sorry for bad mouthing my own Country when traveling abroad
• I’m sorry for advocating boneheaded Socialist policies
• I’m sorry for my rude and hostile comments and actions towards old and trusted friends Great Britain and Israel
• I’m sorry for appointing a sniper ducking pathological liar as Secretary of State
• I’m sorry for promoting the absurd notion of leading from behind as an effective foreign policy strategy
• I’m sorry for wasting the Country’s and Congress’ time making another jobs speech chock full of more lies and Marxist/Socialist propaganda than white on rice

Even though the President won’t say it ain’t no never mind about it the man truly is sorry. Sorry to say it but Barack Husain Obama is a sorry leader; sorry manager; sorry diplomat; sorry Commander-in-Chief; sorry judge of character; sorry golfer; sorry no class tacky Yankee; and well on his way to becoming the sorriest President this great Country has ever entrusted with the highest office in the land.

Week 136: “Metaphorically Speaking”

Then it's flat top, dirty bob, coppin' a feel
Grubbin' on the livin' room floor (so sore)
Yeah, they send you off to college, try to gain a little knowledge,
But all you want to do is learn how to score

Yeah, but now I'm gettin' old, don't wear underwear
I don't go to church and I don't cut my hair
But I can go to movies and see it all there
Just the way that it used to be

That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
The boston blackie kind
A two-toned ricky ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine “A Pencil Thin Mustache”, Jimmy Buffett

President Obama’s selection this week of Professor Alan Krueger to take over as Chair of his Board of Economic Advisors is a metaphor for the train wreck known as the Obama Administration. Placing pointy headed academics or boneheaded career bureaucrats in high level government positions that don’t have any idea what so ever how capitalism or the private sector works.

These so called brilliant public servants who for the most part never made a dime in the private sector not only have oversight and/or regulatory authority over our free enterprise capitalist based economy they also bring a hidden agenda to the job. Just like their boss man Comrade Obama most of these folks are card carrying members of the ACLU; Code Pink; Greenpeace; Big Union Labor; NAG; Marxist; Communist; Socialist; Blame America First extremist hell bent on fundamentally transforming our great nation into an oppressive nanny state.

Professor Krueger is no exception. After exhaustive research we can’t find a shred of evidence the man has ever really put in an honest day’s work in his pampered, prep schooled, Ivy covered life of internships, fellowships and tenured faculty positions.

Not even a lemonade stand, paper route or summer job flipping burgers. Actually meeting a payroll, growing a business and investing his own money on a long shot but calculated risk in a private sector enterprise is as foreign a concept to Professor Krueger as honesty, integrity and class are to President Obama.

Following is a brief bio of Professor Krueger’s many academic and government accomplishments:

• Professor of Economics, Princeton
• Known as a labor economist, is likely to provide a voice inside the administration for more aggressive government action to bring down unemployment
• Professor Krueger already did a stint at the Treasury Department working with Timmy Geithner. He worked on analyses of a variety of programs, including tax incentives to encourage employers to hire the employed, the "cash for clunkers" initiative to jump-start auto purchases and Build America taxable municipal bonds. All misguided initiatives that failed miserably
• Extensively published including Redistributing Wealth – The key to Financial Nirvana; Spending Other People’s Money; Capitalism Sucks
• Economist Fellowships – Paris Institute of Socialism; Mao College of Advanced Communist Economic Theory; Castro Scholar, University of Cuba

Professor Krueger will be joining two fellow Marxist Comrades at the President’s Board of Economic Advisors, Katharine G. Abraham and Carl Shapiro. Both are hardcore liberal elitist hopelessly addicted to spending other people’s money. Following is a listing of their Socialist credentials:

• Abraham is currently on leave from the University of Maryland, where she is a faculty associate in the Maryland Population Research.
• Abraham’s research has included work on employment and unemployment, labor market policy and the measurement of economic activity.
• She has held appointments in the Department of Economics, University of Maryland; the Brookings Institution; and the Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She is a Fellow of the Society of Labor Economists and of the American Statistical Association
• Dr. Abraham earned her B.S. in Economics from Iowa State University in 1976 and her Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard University in 1982.
• Carl Shapiro is on leave from the University of California at Berkeley, a fantasy land chock full of pin headed liberals where he is the Transamerica Professor of Business Strategy at the Haas School of Business and Professor of Economics
• Shapiro has published extensively in the areas of industrial organization, competition policy, the economics of innovation, and competitive strategy. He is co-author of the 1999 book, Information Rules: A Strategic Guide to the Network Economy.
• Shapiro served from 2009-2011 as Deputy Assistant Attorney General for Economics at the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice

Only a genuine bonehead would have a Board of Economic Advisors without a lick of private sector economic experience. All things considered it would seem fair to say our current severely fiscally challenged Commander-in-Chief is a genuine bonehead.

At least they are consistent:

• A bunch of Socialist with no experience in healthcare restructured our entire healthcare system
• Political Science majors and lawyers were given control of the US auto industry
• Egg headed ultra liberal econazie professors are running our energy industry
• Corrupt, incompetent, tax cheats are regulating the financial industry

“Metaphorically Speaking” we’re screwed.

Week 135: “Summer Rental”

Well this lunch break is gonna take all afternoon
And half the night
Tomorrow morning I know there'll be hell to pay
Hey! But, that's all right
Ain't had a day off now in over a year
My Jamaican vacation's gonna start right here
If the phone's for me you can tell 'em I just sailed away and..

I could pay off my tab
Pour myself in a cab
And be back to work before two:
At a moment like this
I can't help but wonder,
what would Jimmy Buffett do?

I'd say..
Pour me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane
Before I go insane
It's only half past 12
But, I don't care
its five O'clock somewhere.
“It's five O'clock somewhere”, Jimmy Buffett and Allen Jackson

For three years running the First Family has chosen to spend their summer vacation on Martha’s Vineyard. An exclusive island get away only accessible by boat or private jet (thought the President didn’t particularly care for all those evil private jet owners) that serves as the summer home to several hundred of the world’s wealthiest liberal elite.

While we certainly don’t begrudge our Chief Executive a little R&R with the kinfolk we do question why he’s so hell bent about going to one of the most high brow, expensive, Yankee rich vacation destinations on the planet. Especially when you consider the millions of his fellow Americans, all the poor dumb pilgrims he's always so passionately talking about helping during one of his seemingly endless class warfare propaganda addresses, that are literally struggling to keep food on the table.

To add insult to injury according to published reports the Obama’s “Summer Rental“ leases out for a cool fifty grand per week. With 9.1% unemployment, millions of the President’s beloved working class dealing with underwater mortgages, and 401K values sinking faster than Nancy Pelosi’s most recent face lift forking out fifty grand for a week long “Summer Rental “is nothing less than extreme arrogance, a disdain not often seen from a American President towards all of the folks paying the bills around here and the epitome of left wing secular progressive elitism.

Any man who spends 12.5% of his $400,000 annual salary on a one week “Summer Rental“ while so many are experiencing moderate to severe economic hardship needs to seriously reevaluate his priorities. Spending thousands on golf, ice-cream, yacht rentals, expensive dinners, a “Come as Your Favorite Nekkid Marxist/Socialist Pre-Labor Day” party, and a wheel barrel full of books for him and the youngins so to catch up on their summer reading is just downright tacky.

Reckon we shouldn’t expect anything less from the corrupt Chicago politician egg head Yankee lawyer who’s quickly wearing out his welcome at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Bless his little Socialist heart the man has no conscience about spending our money in a criminally negligent fashion so their ain’t no reason at all why we should expect he has the good sense to spend his own any differently.

Speaking of books a highly placed source with the Obama bunch shared the President’s vacation reading list with your humble columnist. We are told he owns first edition autographed manuscripts of all of these political classics:

1. Utopian And Scientific - Frederick Engels, March 1880
2. 18th Brumaire of Louis Napoleon - Karl Marx, March 1852
3. Communist Manifesto - Karl Marx, February 21, 1848.
4. The State and Revolution - Vladimir Lenin, 1918
5. Primetime Propaganda: The True Hollywood Story of How the Left Took Over Your TV by Ben Shapiro (May 31, 2011
6. Techniques of Propaganda and Persuasion by Magedah Shabo (Nov 1, 2010)
7. Propaganda and the Public Mind by David Barsamian and Noam Chomsky (May 2001)

In addition to nightly public readings from the President’ s favorite piece of literature of all time, the Communist Manifesto, the First Family is said to be attending daily seminars on a wide range of topics including:

• Advanced Propaganda Strategies
• Bold and Audacious Assignment of Blame
• Never Tell the Truth When a Lie Makes Us Sound More Accountable and Sincere
• Socialism is the New Realty

In an effort to exploit the President’s elitist arrogance vacationing on Martha Vineyard while the country’s economy sinks down to the 8th level of hell the RNC is sending out 18 mock post cards from the President for fund raising purposes. Ain’t hard to figure why the Dems are waxing the GOP so far in the fund raising after seeing these boring, boring, boring attempts at humor.

None of the following got me all hot and bothered feeling so compelled to pull out the check book running out of the house like my hair was on fire in search of a Democrat to tell what for:

• "Finding a wave in Martha's Vineyard is almost as hard as finding a job."
• "I'd say after 40 fund raisers, I've earned a vacation."
• "Wishing you happy job hunting from sunny Martha's Vineyard."
• "Gotta sharpen my game for the next ESPN special."
• "I hope I bowl higher than my approval rating."
• "Why did that lifeguard call me Jimmy Carter?"
• "I shot a 39 on the front nine--matches my approval rating."
• "It's hot outside, heading to take a double dip."
• "This $50,000 per week estate is wicked awesome."
• "One local called me the Bill Buckner of the economy. That's good, right?"
• "No Joe, don't touch anything while I'm gone."
• "Low polls, high unemployment...life's a beach."
• "On second thought, maybe I was wrong about Slurpees."
• "Great thing about vacations...don't need a plan."
• "Wow, I'm eligible for an upgrade. Boy, I needed that."
• "I'll pivot to that whole jobs thing...next week."
• "Raining in Martha's Vineyard. Must be Bush's fault."
• "Divots: They're shovel ready

In our humble opinion something along the lines of the following would be setting fund raising records at levels the RNC would have never dreamed possible:

• Obama’s face grinning from humongous ear to ear with the caption – “Socialism, the New Normal”
• “Just Can’t Wait To Get Back to the Oval Office and Back to Work Spending, taxing, regulating, apologizing and appeasing on behalf of all the dumb pilgrims who actually think I’m on their fighting side”
• “Never met a tax I didn’t openly greet with a big ole sloppy wet kiss”
• “I’ll be back to work on Monday” If this one doesn’t compel us to write a 6 figure check we deserve what we get

Mr. President, next time take the fifty plus grand you spent on your “Summer Rental” and give it to a worthy charity and spend your vacation at Camp David, or your Chicago home. Our even better yet save it. We have a strong hankering you just might need it after the 2012 election.

Week 134: “Trains, Planes & Million Dollar Presidential Campaign Busses ”

Took the bus out of Austin, band was all on board
Everyone's so excited, who knows what lays in store
Hey look out the window, there goes Baton Rouge
Nobody there knows us, band's still paying its dues
Yeah we're paying dues

First show in New Orleans, saw the lights of Bourbon Street
On the road in the morning, Little Rock's where we'll be
And the bus keeps on rolling, down that old highway
And every night we play music, that's what gets you through the day
Yeah, cause that's why we play “Down the Road”, Jerry Jeff Walker

Our “Campaigner-in-Chief” has struck out on what’s been labeled as a three day “Listening Tour” by the White House propagandist and political hacks. With those humongous ears you’d think the President would take to a “Listening Tour” like a duck to water, white on rice, and/or Yankees displaying tacky behavior.

Unfortunately this President loves the sound of his own voice far too much to ever really hear what someone else has to say. Especially anyone with the audacity to actually disagree or speak out aginst his Marxist/Socialist dreams of grandeur.

Claiming this campaign trip as official Presidential business Mr. Obama is conducting a three day bus trip to Midwestern swing states making hyper-partisan stump speeches whining like a spoiled child about all the misfortune heaped on his narrow shoulders that is putting a damper on his brilliant economic recovery plans. Not a peep about his incompetence and criminally negligent spending of other people’s money contributing to this fiscal catastrophe.

To add insult to injury we the people are paying for this farce and thinly veiled campaign swing through Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. A total waste and misuse of tax payer’s money that includes a shiny new fortress on wheels, a multi-million dollar “unofficial” campaign bus, paid for by all of us poor dumb taxpaying pilgrims.

Why in the world a man who has unlimited access to the most advanced private jet known to mankind, a flock of helicopters and a fleet of missal proof limos needs a huge black touring bus that can probably withstand all manner of natural and manmade forms of destruction is sure enough a real head scratcher. Especially when this fiasco on wheels is paid for with our hard earned tax dollars.

Highly placed sources in the Obama regime have confirmed that this ultra high tech multi-million dollar mobile campaign headquarters not only could survive a nuclear bomb attack but also is chock full of the latest creature comforts no President should ever leave home without. This bad boy comes fully equipped with a practice putting green; hoops goal; teleprompter; smoking area; accommodations for the first pooch Bolshevik; fully stocked bar; home theatre; left wing media elite press room; a Mosque; and a Communist Manifesto Display Room.

Our gift to the Obama campaign ain’t exactly eco friendly neither. How our clean, green, tree hugging, bark eating, alternative energy mandating Chief Executive justifies joy riding around the County in a bus that gets 2 miles to the gallon with a carbon footprint bigger than Al Gore’s monthly massage bill is truly a mystery to behold.

President Obama’s message to the folks at his noncampaign campaign rallies that he drives to in his noncampaign campaign bus doesn’t seem anywhere near worth all the heart ache and commotion this little Midwestern excursion is stirrin up. Just more of the same class and generational warfare, pointing fingers, doubling down on failed policy initiatives and making lame excuses for his dismal economic performance.

His town hall and backyard gatherings are just more empty rhetoric including the following over used and boring talking points:

• “There’s nothing wrong with our country, there is something wrong with our politics.”
• Citing “brinkmanship” as an obstacle to growing the economy and creating jobs, the president criticized “the idea that making it through the next election is more important than making things right.”
• “Some in Congress would rather see their opponents lose than see America win.”
• The president proposed extending the payroll tax cut, cutting “red tape” in the patent process so that entrepreneurs can get ideas to the market more quickly, and finishing trade deals to boost the sale of American-made goods around the globe.
• “Their vision is less about reducing the deficit than it is about changing the basic social compact in America,” pitting “children with autism or Down’s syndrome” against “every millionaire and billionaire in our society.”

Boring, boring, boring. The same counterproductive don’t have a clue remarks and proposals we’ve been hearing for the last six months.

We have been informed our”Economist-in-Chief” will be making a major fiscal policy announcement in September outlining his latest plan for economic growth, job creation and debt reduction. By our count this is the 12th time this bunch has announced they will be making a major fiscal policy announcement so we ain’t exactly expecting any world changing breakthroughs at just one more Obama economic propaganda fest.

Reckon this noncampaign campaign bus is the President’s idea of shared sacrifice. We sacrifice while he shares the wealth by redistributing trillions to his political constituencies and buying himself a shiny new campaign bus.

Bless his heart the President is spending the next ten days vacationing in the liberal bastion Martha’s Vineyard after three grueling days on the road on his Midwest campaign noncampaign “Listening Tour”. VP “Uncle” Joe Biden is reportedly taking the noncampaign campaign bus on a ten day binge to Vegas, South Beach and other where abouts unknown.

Cheers!

Week 133: “A Presidency of First”

Six days later, I was
feeling like a missing link
When my friends told me, hey Jimmy
It must have been the
hoodlum drink (hoodlum drink)

Now it's time for siestas
And a belly full of rice and beans
And figure if I'm brave enough
To repeat the whole crazy scene

On my first look
That's when I swallowed the hook
On my first look, around “My First Look”, Jimmy Buffett

Bless their little hearts one aspect of the train wreck known as the Obama Presidency is the truly remarkable number of first achieved by this corrupt gang of ultra left wing liberal zealots. The speed and frequency this bunch has established historic precedent on such a wide array of topics and issues demonstrates an almost total disregard for decades of solid policy initiatives, decorum, and conducting one’s affairs with honor, dignity and in an intellectually honest fashion.

Of course some of Obama’s first are sure enough historic in consequence. The first individual of color to be elected to the highest Office in the land is a testament to our great nation’s real progress towards a color blind society.

Turns out Mr. Obama is the wrong person of color and by just about any other criteria for the job. This sad but true reality doesn’t minimize or negate the significance of this historic first.

President Obama’s Socialist Regime has compiled an impressively dubious list of historically unprecedented first that would have been the political ruin of any Republican Administration and even a few moderate Democrats. Without protection and the blind support from the hyper partisan main stream media elite boneheads candidate Obama would have never beat Hillary “Sarge” Clinton for the nomination and once elected would have been run out of town on a rail for his criminally negligent lack of leadership.

Following is a list of Obama First which in many instances are the last things we’d expect from the person residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue:

• The First President that attended Islamic grade school as a youngster
• The First President that according to his book “Dreams of My Father” thought the Islamic Call to Prayer was the sweetest sound he ever heard
• The First President that according to his own book was conceived out of wedlock to a black Kenyan Muslim father and a white free spirited mother who pursued a nomadic hippie life style most of her adult life
• The First President that according to his own book was a booze guzzling crack head during his formative high school and college days
• The First President that according to his own book actively sought out the company of left wing extremist, radical feminist, and Communist professors while attending college
• The First President that worked for a Community Action Organization, ACORN, that publicly confirmed their Socialist agenda
• The First President that was an active member of a Black Liberation Church that openly advocates anti-American; racist; the entitlements of the “Victim Class”; and Marxist/Socialist policies
• The First President who’s political running buddies in Chicago included a self described domestic terrorist, Bill Ayers, one of the leaders of the criminal thug Underground Weatherman
• The First President who joined the country of Mexico and sued a State in the United States to force that State to continue to allow Illegal Immigration
• The First President who put 87,000 workers out of work by arbitrarily placing a moratorium on offshore oil drilling on companies that have one of the best safety records of any industry because one foreign company had an accident in the Gulf of Mexico
• The First President who hired open hardcore Marxist/Socialist for leadership positions in his Administration
• The first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference
• The first President to hang autographed pictures of all his political heroes in the Oval Office including the likes of Karl Marx, Mao Zedong , Lenin, Castro, Hugo Chavez, and Joe Stalin
• The first President to increase annual Federal Spending to almost $4 Trillion dollars
• The first President to set the White House Rose Garden a blaze after chain smoking a pack of KOOLS leaving lit butts behind in-between Debt reduction meetings with Congressional leaders
• The first President to accumulate over a Trillion Dollar Annual deficits three years running
• The first President to have a Portuguese Water Dog First Pooch named Bolshevik. Reckon a domestic breed or all American mutt named Rufus, Butkis or Snot is just a tad beneath these Ivy League Liberal elitist
• The first President to amass a criminally negligent national debt just south of $15 Trillion equaling 100% of GDP. The first time the debt/GDP ratio has been this high since WWII
• The first President to successfully implement a hostile and unconstitutional Government takeover of the US Healthcare Industry. More than likely resulting in the largest redistribution of wealth in the history of the civilized world.
• The first President to advocate changing the national pastime from Baseball to the Communist sport of Soccer
• The first President to have the Country’s Credit Rating, which up till now has been the world’s gold standard and most trusted safe haven for global investments, downgraded from Triple A to Double A + status under his watch. To throw salt in the wound we are also catching valid and justifiable grief from the likes of the Communist Chinese and Socialist French about our fiscal mismanagement which by any reasonable measure should be considered an impeachable offense if it ain’t already.

Guilty of gross incompetence and criminally negligent fiscal malfeasance this absolutely unqualified and dangerously inexperienced “In Way Above His Humongous Ears-in-Chief “is most deserving of one more unprecedented historical first. Impeachment by the House of Representatives followed by a guilty Conviction by the US Senate.

Doubtful, but considering the deserving what for from our far too often arrogant French allies certainly not out of the realm of possibility.

After months of hyper partisan feuding in our nation’s capital over extending Uncle Sammy’s debt ceiling, line of credit, the President and his Democrat comrades in Congress finally agreed to some restraints on future spending for a couple more trillion in borrowing authority. “A Good Start” or just more “Pissin' In the Wind”? Reckon only time will tell.

In an unprecedented move Congressional Republicans refused to approve the President’s request to increase the Government’s credit line. Up till now a fairly routine procedural maneuver that typically slid through Congress much akin to a hot knife cutting through butter.

Led by theTea Party Caucus and other fiscal conservatives House GOPR’s told the out of control spending Obama Administration what for insisting on some reasonable restraints on future expenditures and structural changes required to balance the budget. Liberal boneheads addicted to the reckless spending of other people’s money blew a gasket and all hell done broke loose in the hallowed halls of Congress and 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Starting with the President his self left wing head cases the likes of Uncle Joe Biden, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Barney “Freddie In the Fannie Mac“ Frank accused House Republicans of holding the Country hostage with a gun to the head of We the People and behaving like Jihadist Hezbula terrorist. Interesting rhetoric to say the least from a bunch of pasavist that normally won’t even call real genuine terrorist, a terrorist.

Finally after Speaker Boehner realized the President couldn’t be trusted to negotiate in good faith he walked and focused his efforts on cutting a deal with Senate Democrats. Knowing Boehner was sure enough more than happy to risk the potential, but far from certain, adverse financial implications of missing the Admnistration’s self imposed deadline of August 2cd Senate Majority Reid folded like a cheap lawn chair and gave away the proverbial farm.

A large bipartisan vote passed in the House on August 1st followed by an even larger bipartisan majorty vote in the Senate at the 11th hour and 59th minute on Treasury Secretary Geithner’s bogus day of all manner of financial disaster, default and the catastrophic demise of the good faith and credit of the world’s most stable and trusted economy. The Pesident finally got his greedy little bony Socialist fingers on 2.4 Trillion dollars of other people’s money to redistribute to his political supporters the unions, victim class, and bleeding heart secular progressive liberal pinheads.

Following is a summary of the primary components of the “Great Increase in the Debt Ceiling, Spending Caps and Balanced Budget Bill of 2011”:

• Immediate increase the debt limit by $400 billion,
• Obama permitted to order another $500 billion increase this fall unless both House and Senate override him by veto-proof margins
• A third installment of between $1.2 trillion and $1.5 trillion would be made available after enactment of matching levels of additional spending cuts recommended by a special joint committee of lawmakers.
• $1.5 trillion could also be available if Congress adopts and sends to the states for ratification a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution.
• $900 billion in spending cuts over 10 years from Cabinet agencies whose budgets are passed each year by Congress. Caps such "discretionary" spending at $1.043 trillion in 2012, $7 billion below 2011 levels and $44 billion below an inflation-adjusted "baseline”.
• A near-freeze in 2013, discretionary spending would increase by about 2 percent a year
• Both security and nonsecurity programs would absorb outright cuts in 2012. The Pentagon is among a group of programs that together would absorb a $4 billion cut from current levels next year. Other programs in the security category include foreign aid, intelligence, homeland security and veterans' programs.
• The creation of a 12-person House/Senate committee evenly divided between the political parties, and charged with producing up to $1.5 trillion more in deficit cuts over 10 years including Medicare, Medicaid, farm subsidies and federal retirement programs.
• If a majority of the committee agrees on a plan, it would receive a vote in both the House and the Senate. If the panel deadlocks or fails to produce at least $1.2 trillion in additional cuts, or if Congress fails to enact its recommendations, the White House budget office would impose spending cuts across much of the federal budget, including the Pentagon, domestic agency budgets and farm subsidies
• The plan also requires both the House and Senate to vote on a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution; establish "program integrity" initiatives aimed at stemming abuses in Social Security and federal health care programs; and preserve recent funding increases for Pell Grants for low-income college students by $17 billion over 2012-13, financed by curbs in student loan subsidies.

When all is said and done will these measures resolve our Country’s debt crisis? No sir, no way, no how. Truth be told even if all these steps are implemented and achieve their desired results our accumulated National Debt will still increase by $6 – 8 Trillon dollars over the next ten years leaving us with a whoping $22 – 24 Trillion of borrowed money accruing interest faster than a scaulded dog running home to Moma.

This humongous, unsustsainable, and criminally negligent amount of outstanding debt will surely suck all of the economic oxygen out of the room and lead to the collapse and failure of the US economy. When confronted with this economic reality the President and his Socialist compadre’s in Congress continued efforts to expand the size, influence and cost of the Federal government is truly a call to arms to send these folk’s happy asses packing in the 2012 elections.

“A Good Start” – only if Conservatives sieze control of the White House and Senate, make real cuts to spending, balance the budget, get the hell out of the private sector’s way, and actually pay down the debt over the next ten years.

“Pissin' In the Wind” – Exactly what will happen if we leave the incompitent, corrupt, Socialist Obama Regime in charge of this fiasco.
