I've Invented a New Game

By Joseph Lawler on 11.6.09 @ 2:12PM

I've invented a game where first you take what Pres. Obama wrote about the dire consequences without his stimulus:

And if nothing is done, this recession might linger for years. Our economy will lose 5 million more jobs. Unemployment will approach double digits.

Then you switch it around so that he's talking about what did happen with the stimulus:

And if [we pass my stimulus], this recession might linger for years. Our economy will lose 5 million jobs. Unemployment will approach double digits.

And suddenly he's a prophet!

Jon Stewart invented a similar game a few years back, one about Bush's justifications for invading Iraq. For some reason he isn't up for making up similar games with a Democrat in the White House.
