Suck-up summit put Larry Summers to sleep
Looks like the monkey-see, monkey-do routine at yesterday’s “fiscal repsonsibility” summit hosted by Barack Obama and dutifully attended by congressional sycophants didn’t capture Larry Summers’ attention.
Although Lawrence Summers, head of the National Economic Council, fell asleep on the podium, most attendees, including Republicans, appear to have appreciated the exercise.
Hope he didn’t snore too loudly.

Gov. Sonny Perdue looks like he could use a Red Bull, too.

Haha–I saw this too.
I was hoping that it wasn’t ‘snore’ that he may have done loudly…you know how gas can escape from the male when the, um, rectum is relaxed…
So now we’ve discovered a good use for President Obama’s constant pausing and “uuuhhhing” during his speeches; a sleep aide!
One of the disciples sleeping in the Garden of Gethsemane? How reprehensible to let down The One in his our of need.

President Obama: “Who, uh, put the, uh, whoopie cushion on, uh, Mr. Summers’ chair?”
Oh, puh-LEEZE. Forget sleeping–I would’ve torn someone a new taterhole if this is what I had to listen to!
Monkey see, Monkey do? That’s a little racist, don’t you think?
btw, did anyone hear Rush refer to Michelle Obama as a “sausage” yesterday? What racist implications could that mean?
Did he fall asleep on purpose?
I sure would’ve!
LARRY just fits right in with the administration… They are either asleep at the switch, or SLEEPWALKING…
This administration is not interested in economy, it’s interested in spending.Have you heard that there is another $400B spending package in House right now. Besides you always let a sleeping dog lay, that way he won’t bite you.
He must be really tired from having to find a way to spend more of our tax money for pork. It’s a tough job trying to spend someone else’s money.
Like Jindal and others, Purdue is not accepting this stimulus crap sandwich without due diligence.
Meanwhile, the WSJ reports that the Medicaid funds are a trap too:
I thought is was a drinking game! (we will need more of those soon…)
Or maybe Summers was going to pull a Gore “iced tea” defense, where he was “out of the room” when bad things happened.
Off topic, but I was just thinking…Isn’t it interesting that the democrats give such misleading titles to their bills? The Fairness Doctrine, The Stimulus Bill, Freedom of Choice, Employee Free Choice Act, Uniting American Families Act, …etc. Words, just words. Here is my take on the true meaning of those titles:
The Fairness Doctrine…Actually censorship in the first degree. To stifle conservative dissent.
The Stimulus Bill…Another name for Reparations. A good way to “stick it to the man” (That’s us, folks!)
Freedom of Choice…License to Kill
Employee Free Choice Act…Vote for the Union or else. Big Brother is definitely watching you now!
Uniting American Families Act…to bring more gay people into this country so that some day they will be the majority and really “stick it to the man” (no pun intended, of course!) I wonder how the American Muslim population would like this one?)

Methinks the end result would be the same . . . except for the hangover.
If it was me, I would have probably gone to sleep too. Good time for a quick nap, and I wouldn’t have missed anything. Besides, I hate listening to a whole bunch of BS.
Personally, I would not want that man’s voice and ideas to be the last thing I heard before falling asleep. It is the stuff of nightmares!
I saw that, too. It could only be funnier if he had fallen out of his chair, or leaned over and put his head against the shoulder of the poor sap sitting next to him!
I was just thinking, do you want the federal government nationalizing the banks? Remember when they foreclosed on the Mustang Ranch, and took over daily operations. They couldn’t make a profit running a whore house. My God what would do to the banks?
Just another insipid vapid democrat ploy to make people think they are being productive. I slept through this BS in high school too!
