Re: Obama XII: The shine is off the glass slipper

Can this administration do anything right? :mad:

A grade 5 student can do better than this letter to G20 leaders:

lets see... "ll" is "n"... uhh... so that makes it (probably) _ _ n _ work... earlier.. "Ol" stands for "r"... so the second letter probably isn't "r".... on second thought.... maybe part of it is "r".

Isn't this administration supposed to know technology or something? isn't that why they hired Kal Penn?

Did they name it Obama <strike>Porkway</strike> Parkway? ;)

Roads in Orlando honor some of our greatest presidents, from Washington to Jefferson and now Obama.

On Friday, Orlando leaders made President Barack Obama Parkway the first road under construction in the nation named after our 44th president, and surely one of the few in history to be named after a sitting president in his first term.

Re: Obama XII: The shine is off the glass slipper

You know, I kind of like this about Obama, that he's willing to say "screw you" to all the critics and get out for a round of golf when he feels like it. What's the good of being the prez if you can't go golfing when the mood strikes? Plus, good exercise, mental break, and great fun. Would he really be more productive if he spent those hours stewing over everything at the office? No.

its not about the golf... its about the hypocrisy of the news media and Bush's liberal critics. Obama has gone golfing more times in a year and a half than Bush ever did over a longer period of time (2-2.5 years). I don't think conservatives really care that much if Obama plays golf.

Or instead of going to a conservative website for your "news" you could post the original

Link

Of course, that has the correct date (June 16, not 18) and shock of shock, no typos which appear at your conservative website. Ooops.

of course he'd still be right... the white house had to correct themselves at a later time and not in the initial upload.

But, honestly, not all is lost. I for one welcome our technical-incompetent technically-able overlords.

I always trust a non-biased news site like hotair.com. They get the details right (like the date :rolleyes: )

Biden grinning as he repeatedly whales his head against the rollbar was a nice touch. :D

Still, Repubs should savor the moment. Getting federal money that you pretend to oppose is the political equivalent of getting your cake and eating it.

How is that a "moment"? It's the game they've played since 1980, and the game Southern conservatives, once Dems, now GOP, have been playing for a hundred years. "Get the gummint outta ma life and don'tcher touch ma check!!!" :rolleyes:

Rasmussen's FOX filters need work. They just phone-polled me on the economy.

Except that when the gummint was not in our lives, we invented things like that could be exported. Now we import the stuff and invent "services". Are labor and the cost of doing bizness too much???

Oh, it's SciFi, but this is a long novel about the current social condition. Let me know what you think.
 
Re: Obama XII: The shine is off the glass slipper

I hate to post 2x, but in today's WaPo we have this:

We need manufacturing jobs, not social programs
Q:The overwhelming consensus among economists is that the economy needs another shot of short-term stimulus spending. But as the president and congressional leaders have discovered in trying to pass a new stimulus bill, voters want to start bringing the deficit down now. Is this one of those leadership moments when it is better to accommodate strong constituent beliefs rather than trying to convince them they are wrong?

The major shortcoming of previous stimulus efforts is the failure to empower and energize America's manufacturing base. Only with the recovery of our manufacturing base will the economy sort itself out and the deficit be reduced. Up until now, however, the stimulus effort has been misdirected to social programs that will only produce a culture of dependency and more debt. I am reminded of the quote "Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime".

The administration's stimulus handouts amount to very expensive feel-good fixes that quickly run out of steam. There is no staying power and we continue to spend money that we do not have. I believe that a better solution would be to create real manufacturing jobs in serious numbers. One is hard pressed to find any company in the manufacturing sector that has seen the first dollar of stimulus.

I believe in the America work ethic. Most Americans would much rather be part of a high-performing manufacturing team than be dependent on government social programs. There is no honor in receiving a handout when one is perfectly capable of working to support his or her family.

Sadly, our president and congressional leaders have it wrong and thankfully our system of government has a forcing mechanism--the voice of the people. I for one expect a loud and sustained constituent voice.

Gentlemen, we may have a candidate. I don't care what party, but this may be like Eisenhower with both parties bidding for his services.

He may be a little more well liked than Gen. McChrystal is at the moment, I'll give you that.:)

We need workers to be hired one way or the other...but I'm not sure if we need more politicians with a special interest bank account:
