That’s Gonna Leave a Mark
It’s hard to work up a good schadenfreude when the story is about the Obama Administration’s knee on the neck of job creation. On the other hand, here’s a list of some of the juicier phrases employed by Richard Wolffe in his LA Times report:
…his party’s shellacking…
…his propeller-head economists…
…the wonkish question…
But on the eve of an electoral disaster, the esoteric discussion…
…one of this White House’s most obvious failures…
…Obama’s dysfunctional economic team…
…the president has been frustrated…
…the president cannot be an empty vessel for hope…
…postelection gloom…
But the most telling line is this one: “the White House has failed to realize that the communications problem is a symptom of Obama’s problems, not a cause.”
It seems the Smartest Man in Any Room™ is a bit of a slow learner.
He’s not a slow learner. He’s a zero learner.
If you already know the answers, you don’t have anything to learn.
The man is programmed. It doesn’t matter what the results are, he’s sticking with the program.
The rest of the world thinks he cares about whether the economy improves or not. He doesn’t. He cares about whether progress is made toward totalitarianism. An improving economy doesn’t help at all.
The slow learners are people who can’t see THAT, after 22 months of overwhelming evidence.
had to share. This is really a whang-bang take-down of the Smartest Guy He Ever Met Looks At Him From The Mirror:
“…Obama’s self-regard is at its most resplendent when he delivers a remark attributed to Abraham Lincoln: “I am not bound to win, but I’m bound to be true. I’m not bound to succeed, but I’m bound to live up to what light I have.” That the words are actually those of Ronald Reagan is an amusing but trivial detail.
What’s telling is that Obama set up the remark by saying he takes great pleasure in the White House library, and that he stumbled upon the remark in the process of searching out the wisdom of his predecessors. This was not a true statement. In fact Obama later admitted to Wolffe that he had found the quotation while reading one of his own diaries, in which he had mistakenly attributed the Reaganism to Lincoln.
So: In times of worry and strife, Obama looks for comforting inspiration in the sacred, timeless words of . . . Obama!”

We’re so screwed.
Great. It’s taken “the Smartest Man” two years to learn to spell J-O-B-S and E-C-O-N-O-M-Y. Now, can someone just explain to him what real jobs are? And while you’re at it, can you clarify that in spite of the fact that its a four-letter word, jobs are a good thing?
Once he’s conquered those concepts, BHO might be ready to tackle the complexities of the economy … Be sure to clarify that the “MY” doesn’t actually refer to the Chief Egotist in office, master of the I-niverse.
