Also,

- try to patch the image of Dick Cheney.
- try to present Bush in a better light when he does become the topic, distorting reality.

Is Bush really running this time around?

I remember all the Dem crap about Bush in 2008 when he had reached the end of his two term limit. I think that many Dems were surprised when they got their ballots and didn't find Bush's name on them.

See Barney Frank.
Look into how the Democrats changed the rules on borrowing to bring a lot of the housing bubble about and you can go back to JFK and various state governors for allowing unions in government jobs allowing overpayment and outrageous benefits.
We grew the hell out of government.
We grew the hell out of dependents.
We attacked the hell out of the private sector.
Then ask what happened?

Get rid of the Democrats and bribing people with the treasury for the vote and it will get better.

Balanced Budget Amendment is needed.

11. Warn White people that Blacks are starting a race war , as evidenced by flash mobs

12. Warn paranoid gun nuts that Obama is going to take all their guns away, along with their bibles.

13. Warn tin foil nuts that Muslims are taking over the USA, starting with beautiful Detroit

14. Warn ignorant rednecks that Mexicans are taking over and Spanish will become the official language of the USA

Obama's Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack: "Well, obviously, it's putting people to work. Which is why we're going to have some interesting things in the course of the forum this morning. Later this morning, we're going have a press conference with Secretary Mavis and Secretary Chu to announce something that's never happened in this country -- something that we think is exciting in terms of job growth. I should point out, when you talk about the SNAP program or the foot stamp program, you have to recognize that it's also an economic stimulus. Every dollar of SNAP benefits generates $1.84 in the economy in terms of economic activity. If people are able to buy a little more in the grocery store, someone has to stock it, package it, shelve it, process it, ship it. All of those are jobs. It's the most direct stimulus you can get in the economy during these tough times."

Obama doesn't like to run against his real opponents. In his first election he had all three of his opponents removed for various reasons. In 2008 he ran against Bush instead of McCain. Today his minions are desperately trying to blame the Obama catastrophe on Bush as though the last two and a half years of complete and unqualified failure upon failure were all just a dream.

Will it go something like this..."We extended the Bush Tax Cuts to implement trickle down voodoo. We are aware that it has never worked, but you still believe that it does, so you must be patient".

They've got nothin'!!!


Yep, those Bush years sure were tough.

Good thing were on the right track now faithfully following Keynesian theory to the letter.

He trounced on his last opponent(s). It's hard to say who his next opponent will be as the right wing hasn't decided the flavor of the month. The loonies can't decide if they want Trump, Palin, Cain, Bachmann, etc..

Default Strategy still not working

With Romney set to face President Obama, this strategy still is a losing proposition for the GOP.

Enjoy President Obama's second term.
