   Obama Tops $4 Trillion Worth of ‘Unpatriotic’ Debt

   $4 Trill is clearly “unpatriotic”….but $14 Trill or more evidently is.

   Obama’s statement always have an experation date, usually within 24 hours of making t.

   When Bush did it, it was “unpatriotic.”

   When Obama does it, it’s “An Investment in Our Children’s Future.”™

   It’s simple, really. I’m surprised how you missed the distinction. Clearly, somebody didn’t get the memo…

   And remember, unless it’s Bush, it’s not cricket to question anybody’s patriotism.

   Could be that our White House team sees this as a “demand-side economics” problem. China excels at demand-side economics. Not enough supply? “Great Leap Forward”! Exterminate the 10% surplus population and even give their children the honor of performing the patriotic deed!

   As we discussed yesterday, the Alinskyites have been documented planning how to exterminate 25% of the US population. The logistics are very difficult but China has mastered the skills required. Maybe Sheriff Joe brought it up and will be bringing back the relevant economic consultants to help us balance our budget.

   Does anyone really believe Obama has any clue as to what he reads from TOTUS? All he has done for his entire term is read what someone else wrote. He’s just a vacuum that gets filled with new debris, and every time he delivers a “speech”, he simply spews out what his handlers put in.

    What’s worse than a depression?
    We’re about to find out, since according to Pharoah Obama, the American economy has taken big slumps because of the Japan earthquake and tsunami, the Arab Spring uprising, and President Bush working against him somewhere in the White House basement.
    An earthquake in the D.C. area shall have a totally constricting effect on the American economy, because Barracky boy will say it will.
    The best thing to do is to print more money and spread it out to the Democrat supporters who have the wisdom to get this economy back on the right track.

    What exactly did America expect from Cloward, Pivin, and Alinsky’s very best student, the Jackass-In-Chief? It’s all about “overwhelm and collapse the system.” “Never let a (created) crisis go to waste.” It’s truly ironic just how much the Jackass-In-Chief, with the help of the ever-worthless ACORN folks, caused this mess in the first place.

And they want MORE. Someone, some group, some d or r is getting fat off this at taxpayers expense. Just when will we taxpayers say enough is enough and come 4/15 you don’t get anymore from us till you do our will? These people in dc are sucking us dry for what? Where is it going?

    Obama a ‘living and breathing nightmare’

    An Israeli news columnist is scorching Barack Obama as possibly the worst U.S. president in history, calling him “a living and breathing nightmare.”

    Yigal Walt of Ynetnews says Obama “is solidifying his status as the worst president in American history. The leader who promised us a bright future of peace and fraternity is leading the American empire – and the rest of the world with it – into a dark abyss.”
    “Ever since he settled into the Oval Office, Obama has been hopping from one disaster to the next, making every possible mistake, boosting enemies and disregarding allies while ruining everything he touches in the process,” Walt writes.
    He says Obama was silent when the masses hit Iran’s street and threatened to topple the ayatollah’s regime.
    “Why should he support a struggle waged by freedom-hungry citizens against a radical Islamic dictatorship and chronic human rights violator? And so, a rare opportunity to change the face of a state that today constitutes the gravest threat to world and regional peace slipped away.”

    Instead, Walt says, Obama buddied up to Syrian President Bashar Assad and remained silent, again, when Assad started butchering his own people.
    “For the time being, Obama keeps muttering, Assad keeps murdering, and the world keeps watching and doing nothing,” Walt writes.
    Obama is also criticized for allegedly eroding NATO in the effort to oust Libya’s Muammar Gadhafi.
    “And so, the once-intimidating NATO alliance found itself entangled above Libya’s deserts for long months in a ‘battle of giants’ against a state whose army is sometimes reminiscent of a Jenin street gang from a decade ago,” says Walt. “Now, with Gadhafi’s rule finally drawing to an end, the president kindly took time off from his vacation to festively declare that the future is in the Libyan people’s hands – while local tribes are preparing for the imminent bloodshed and al-Qaida is reinforcing its hold on the country.”
    Walt’s blistering attack on Obama concludes with a fondness communicated for Obama’s predecessor.
    “The ongoing disaster called Obama may prompt some of us to apologize to another American president, one George W. Bush,” Walt writes. “He was called stupid, incoherent and naive; he was said to understand nothing and know nothing – yet now it turns out that the cowboy from Texas had a much better grasp on reality than his many critics. Even if his motives were at times as naive as Obama’s, the former president combined them with an iron fist, immense determination and admirable loyalty to his allies.
    “Yet Bush is already a distant dream, while Obama is a living and breathing nightmare. Now all that’s left is to wait and see whether America’s citizens will be able to remove him from the White House before he destroys everything.”

    The Ds are much better at sound bites both in and out of context. And the general voting public don’t know the difference.

    “The problem is, is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents – #43 added $4 trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we are going to have to pay back — $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.”

    The GOP candidates should use this against Obama in every TV or radio ad that they run until the election. Then, we’ll find out just how smart, or stupid, we the people really are.
