Barack Obama may not be much of a president, but the man does have a hysterical sense of comedy, if one fancies gallows humor, that is.
Obama’s latest stand-up gag involves the bit about the fall elections.
According to the prez the mid-term votes could come down to “a choice between the policies that got us into this mess and my policies that got us out of this mess.”
Excuse me?
After 18 months of the Obama presidency:
Government spending completely out of control
Federal deficit “unsustainable” at $13 trillion and growing
Unemployment rate close to 10%
15 million Americans out of work
Economy remains in recession, or worse
Personal bankruptcies soaring
Home foreclosures on a pace to reach 1 million in 2010
Consumer confidence at 11-month low
Gulf oil spill worst environmental crisis in history, exacerbated by lack of presidential leadership
Moratorium on drilling to cost jobs
Racial tensions grow in intensity throughout society
U.S. government sides with foreign nation Mexico against sovereign state of Arizona
U.S. borders unsecured--citizens vulnerable to attack from invading criminals
War in Afghanistan: Political goals trump military ones
American prestige in sharp decline throughout world
Even progressive Europeans reject Obama’s outrageous proposals to continue spending
White House uses tyrannical, banana republic tactics to ram Marxist programs into law
Rule of law ignored to secure votes
Majority of Americans believe nation headed in wrong direction
Again, exactly what “Mess” have your policies got us out of, Mr. President?
John W. Lillpop is a recovering liberal. “Clean and sober” since 1992 when last he voted for a Democrat. For years, John lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, the very liberal sanctuary city which protects, rather than prosecutes, certain favored criminals. John escaped the Bay Area in May and now lives in Pine Grove California where conservative values are still in vogue.
