   Sounds to me like the tax hikes are coming.

   Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

   I guess the only “change” we will be likely to see is what will be left in our savings accounts after the Dim(wit)-ocrats are through.

   I’m hoping and working for a huge change in the balance of power come November.

   Where’s my check? I’ve sent them my mailing address several times. I’ll be more than happy to take a check and stimulate the economy. I’m good at spending.

   Stimulate — that means Big Government spends until the socialists run out of your money to give away.

   Buy now, our Imam should just go out and smack some little white balls around. He sure isn’t having any good come from the spending. I stopped by the Walmart this AM, hadn’t been there for a while, asked the checkout clerk how she liked her Obama economy … the store was like a skating rink …

   Useful idiots never learn.

   A version of dangerous, evil idiots’ throwing even more gasoline onto a house fire that they started in the first place.

    When I witness the total idiocy coming from the Obama administration, I think the best way to headline all of its activity is by stating ‘You can’t make this stuff up’.

    LOL!!

    I feel the same way. I have developed chaffing as a result. Obama should spread some lubrication throughout the U.S. economy before the next round of stimulation to lessen the ‘dry rub’ effect.

    This is dangerous, America-hating minions doing the bidding of dangerous, evil, America-hating string-pullers.

    Because that would mean they were wrong. They signed on to the Keynesian/Marxist style of economics and Liberals are never wrong.

    spaceycakes, if you listen to the video in the link, you’ll hear the woman sing a verse and then go into a type of siren song as a background for the announcer.

    About 15 years ago, I was driving home from work and heard a commercial on the radio where a woman started singing, and then went into a high pitch type of siren song as the announcer told us the virtues of the company. It was for ARCO. As soon as I heard the high pitch “aaaahhh” in the background and the announcer speaking, but saying nothing, I immediately screamed, “The Uranus Corporation lives!”

    Singing: “The thrill is gone . . . the thrill is gone . . . bay-bee . . . ”

    Actually, in the case of Obama, there never WAS a thrill, as far as I was concerned. I just could never figure out what it was that caused Chris Matthews to get that “tingle up his leg”.
