Video | "Nobody Messes With Joe" Or Do They?

The Republican National Committee released a new video taking a look at President Obama's waste bill...err I mean 'Stimulus Bill' now that it has been in place for a year.

It seems like people do mess with Joe...beginning with the President himself.

This comes on the heels of a 2nd Stimulus proposal by the Democratic Party and President Obama, except this time, they've advised the left to refrain from using the word 'Stimulus'. This new proposal is a "Jobs Bill"...They really do think that the American people are a bunch of fools! One can come to no other conclusion than to assume that this administration and their Democratic allies have no respect for the American people. They show their sheer disgust for the regular folks by their continuous insults and their blatent disregard for their constituents, the very same people who voted them into power. Unless you agree with them or join their fan base, you are ignorant, racist, gun-touting hicks...Ye haww.

Does that count even if your not white? Hmm...I ought to ask one day?

Hope & Change Policy | Obama's Record Spending

It was not too long ago then candidate Obama, during his campaign, promised a "net spending cut". As President, Obama has not only forgotten his empty promises, he seems intent on doing the exact opposite.
Obama has managed to spend more than any President before him...double!
Via Fox News;

President Obama has shattered the budget record for first-year presidents --spending nearly double what his predecessor did when he came into office and far exceeding the first-year tabs for any other U.S. president in history.

...compared with other presidents' first years in office, Obama is running circles around them.

During this time of economic hardship, the American people are tightening up and holding their wallets a little bit closer. And that’s just the lucky ones. There are many children who are going to have to celebrate the holidays worrying about their parents who were recently laid off or haven’t been able to find a job after months of searching. They are forced to hold on to the little money that they have and unlike this admin., not accrue additional debt from unnecessary spending. This is what is irritating about the whole situation, it's the blatant hypocrisy. We all have 'wants', yet we have learned to accept the current situation and understand the difference between wants and needs.
It’s obvious that Obama does not care for history as he is repeating the devastating years of the Carter administration’s policies to the tenth degree.
Unless things change (quickly), continuing on this current trend only prolongs the recession. Even more worrisome, their compulsive habit of printing money is doing nothing more than securing one thing…not confidence which our markets need, instead, it secures the probability of inflation occurring. Add this to the list of the “change” we were promised.

(I tried to warn people that change is an empty word as it fails to imply anything more than something different. Repeatedly, I urged people to understand that change can be good but change can also be very bad. Is it worth the risk? Monday morning quarterbacking, was it worth the risk?)

Ridiculous Analysis | Stimulus Working?

Anyone who claims that the stimulus is working just might be certifiably nuts. Well it’s not really surprising that the person making such a wild accusation, Robert Reich, just happens to be employed by the Obama administration as an economic advisor.

(the video clip is posted below)
During the CNBC interview with Reich discussing the large unemployment numbers, he actually claimed that;

"the stimulus package is the thing that is actually keeping the economy up, keeping people employed."

Who actually believes him? The others on the program certainly don’t! You’ll notice the hosts, Francis and Kudlow, after hearing the outlandish statement, look at each other and laugh.
Sure the Vice President made the same outrageous claim but that’s good ol' Joe...we know he is not a rational person. It’s understood that all his comments be ignored. Unfortunately, as an advisor to the POTUS, you’re supposed to have some credibility or at least pretend to if you’re going to be defending the administration on the news. Maybe next time, he could start with a lighter joke…one that’s not so funny seeing as how Americans are losing their jobs. Unemployment numbers came out today showing that unemployment is at a 26 year high…Still think the stimulus is working?
You know, when the VP or even worse, the Presidents own economic advisor, make statements like this, it’s awfully offensive. This is the advisor of economic policy to the POTUS and if they think the country is in good shape and the stimulus worked then this administration and President are more off than I could have ever conceived. Is it stupidity or is it plain arrogance or maybe they just don’t care? It’s the era of “hope and change” folks. Half the country took the bait and now the whole country is paying for their naivety!
This administration and democrats in congress need to forget about healthcare and fix the economy! I mean this is infuriating! Then again, how dare we bore the administration with real issues like this when he’s got better things to do…like make a plea on behalf of his corrupt cronies in Chicago to the Olympic committee! Which I may add…failed at that too!

What is it going to take for them to pay attention…or is it just maybe exactly what they want? Rahm Emmanuel, chief of staff, proudly exclaimed that a good crisis should never go to waste! I hope this is not true but every day I’m moving closer to that conclusion until I’m given a reason not to…like a plan to fix the economy. This time, if they do present a plan, we hope they will take it seriously! We want a real proposal, one that has the ability to work! Instead of creating a so-called ‘stimulus’ bill and throwing money at your political allies as payback, lets present real ideas like lifting the burden on small businesses in order for them to hire more workers. Small businesses provide 2 out of every 3 jobs in our country. Why are the unions more important to the President than small businesses who should have been the focus of the original bill? I’m sure you can answer that question yourself.
Additionally, we could suspend federal income taxes for 3-months so that the money goes directly into everyone’s pocket in order to “stimulate” the economy since that’s what a stimulus is supposed to do.

Via newsbusters, they correctly question the rationality;

Is this how the Obama-loving media are going to report today's terrible economic news: it would be worse without the stimulus package, and it will only get better if we pass healthcare reform?

It is clear that this President has all his priorities screwed up!
