Not Gonna Add One Dime to Our Deficit

By Quin Hillyer on 9.9.09 @ 8:47PM

Who does this man think we are? Does he think we are absolute idiots, unable to use even the slightest logic? How can he possible say his plan will not add a dime to the deficit? Sheer common sense says that all his promises will cost a mint. Sheer logic shows that his plans don't add up. And the Congressiaonl Budget Office, which surely UNDERestimates the costs, says it will add a mind-bending trillion dollars to the deficit.

He then says "I will protect Medicare." Oh, is that why he has actually proposed half a trillion dollars in "savings" from Medicare? That number CANNOT be squared with anything other than cutbacks of actual benefits.

If I had a chance to look Obama in the face and talk to him, I would calmly but pointedly chew him out and call him out for the liar he is.

Quinn, he didn't say it wouldn't cost anything, he said it wouldn't increase the deficit. Think man, what element of the equation is missing?

At least 45% of the population that votes stubbornly Democrat seems to be stone cold stupid, Obummer and his minions know it to their toes. The Left lives by the support of the envious, venal, and as indolent.

The Marxist/Fascist/Liberal (Democrat - same thing) covers have been blown off by Thomas Friedman. We evidently are to be ruled by enlightened elites. We will be graced by Plato's Philospher kings; oligarchs bearing gifties and goodies.

Our "betters" will care for us, give us queues for everything. We shall wont for nothing, they promise us.

What we will lose though, is liberty and equality of justice when all of this is finished, because it will be thrown away by our society's perpetual covetousness, cynicism, and gullibility.

The One stood before a partisan Congress, of his party. A congress where nothing but the tiniest shred of parliamentary power is left to his opposition, and dares to blame them for his manifold failures.

Tonight, the nation saw the real Obama, a bitter, partisan, untruthful bully looking for absolute power over every aspect of life.

Will they recognize the monster?

Right now, I doubt it. May I be wrong in that estimation.

PS. How's that IG - gate investigation going? Oh I see it, right there in the landfill with old hotdogs and dirty diapers.

He spent about 50 minutes saying the same thing he has been saying for months. How can I vote for the R-S.C. whose anger got the best of him and blurted out "You Lie?"

Sorry for my second coming, meant to say this the first time around. The boast that savings from goobermint run Medicare and Medicaid has been used in the Federal budgets since I worked for the Department of Health and Human Services, and probably before. 40 years ago?

Yeah, and I did NOT HAVE SEXUAL RELATIONS WITH THAT WOMAN...

To quote Newt, how dumb do they think we are?

He was also a LIAR pre 11/4/08, and sadly, not enough Americans realized that fact. Now that voters are awakening to his BS, the only question is: WILL THE 2010 ELECTIONS GET HERE SOON ENOUGH!!!!!
