Obama, the Bailout Savior

LoL I keep saying it and one day people will listen. This is carefully orchestrated soap opera by the Dems so they won't be seen as rubber stampers. I mean for Jeebus sake first Obama supporter Kerry says the stimulus isn't big enough then Obama co chair McCaskill questions the need for the second half of TARP. Well hell if its working and MSM folk are buying it I say keep doing it. In the end we all win anyway.

David Vitter? Really? Isn't there anyone else?
JNS, I am happy to see no trenches in your piece. I was sooo ready to pull out my Al Gore debate sigh.

"Maybe they were all acting – pretending to be skeptical en masse so that Obama-the-miracle-maker could look all the better."

WE HAVE A WINNER.

But let's go ahead with the 1000 Bridges To Nowhere scheme anyway, since the unions demand it and the unsightly taxpayers were forgotten long ago.

= MARKET MELTDOWN ACCOMPLISHED =

I hope Obama pinned down Boehner's hand in a vice and smacked it with a hammer until everyone agreed to do what he says.
.
Also: pointing and laughing at hulagate.

I'm surprised Larry Flynt didn't get to Vitter on the porn bailout. Ol' Diaper Dave is the future of the GOP.
.

Also, QH, is your new handle pronounced "hoo-LAH-guh-tee" or what? is that Greek, or just random keyboarding?

"In the end we all win anyway."

Win what? Hemp hats, or communal copies of Soylent Green on VHS?

OUT: Dumb spending.
IN: Really dumb spending.

If these flaming financial fornicators really want to help the nation, at home and abroad?

1. BUILD 50 NEW NUKE PLANTS WITHIN THE NEXT 10 YEARS

THAT would have the greatest group impact for the better, than all the make work bogus brain dead bridges, barges, boat ramps, and bailouts combined.

We free ourselves from foreign oil (Russia, Venezuela, Arabia) AND we help clean up the air too -- even if the eventual loss of the metallic umbrella now protecting earth people leads to massive new cases of skin cancer, but nothing's perfect.

2. EXPAND THE REGULAR ARMED FORCES, AND DE-COMMISSION THE GUARD & RESERVES

This has been an idea since the days of George Washington (i.e., locally and regionally based units are bad and vulnerable to a host of problems, versus broadly mixed and diverse commands). This change would be better for morale, performance, logistics, and combat -- and it would get the idiot gubners out of the way when it comes to projects like storm reclamation (lacking a legit civil engineering and rescue entity, which is the case now).

3. A FEDERAL LANGUAGE ACADEMY FOR INTEL CAREERISTS

We need a West Point for the intelligence professionals, that combines cultural and langwich skills with police training. You might even make the case to expand this within the Coast Guard Academy (say triple their enrollment) and then split the grads off into their respective choices based on grades and merit, with 20% to FBI, 20% to CIA, 20% to NSA, so on. Long, long, long overdue -- and it takes the politics right out of the campus recruiting obstacles thrown up by the anarchists posing as tenured instructors in the Ivy and Berzerkley realms.

4. TERM LIMITS

Federal, state, local. Say 12 years tops per contestant, in any elected mode, inclusive. Then get a real job. That means you, Teddy.

5. LAND MINE THE BORDERS, NORTH & SOUTH

No illegal entry, period. You do it Ellis Island style, or you go home (or worse). Cal it the Democracy DMZ for something snappy, but DO IT and get a grip on this imported mess, NOW.

= JEB 2012 =

Sshouldn't it be PEOTUS?

Should be PSATBI: President-select About To Be Impeached

= VETTING ACCOMPLISHED =

sqr1: Shouldn't it be PEOTUS?

No, the drug that Hulagirl is on is spelled P-E-Y-O-T-E.

"...their future president leads them like the Pied Piper leads children..."

But enough about the Nazis.

to hula - it rubs the lotion . . . .

I for one am glad he seems to know how to woo the Dems. That will be even easier once he's actually Pres.
.
don't poke the trolls, please

. . . or it gets the hose again.

kathy, doesn't it give you some pleasure imagining the trolls in Bill's oubliette?

Shorter QH:

1. I secretly love Obama's stimulus plan, so long as it embraces my favorite energy source to the exclusion of all others. Balance is for hippies and Bhuddists!
2. Expand the military power of the Federal Government. States rights suuuck!
3. Okay, this one is pretty good.
4. Lame duckitude is awesome, cause I hate this one Democrat!
5. Here is a fun new way to kill brown people! America totally doesn't need them, we just use them all the time cause we enjoy it!

QH would also like you to know that Obama is as popular as a Nazi and should therefore be impeached.

Debbie "Stabenow" unsettles me.

Can someone explain why Obama couldn't use this Jedi mind trick when he was a Senator?
.
No, the drug that Hulagirl is on is spelled P-E-Y-O-T-E.

Really? I'm getting the vibe of a meth tweaker.

wvng - I wouldn't mind trolls except that they really do affect the thread. Hard to carry on even our usually snarky conversations, much less the serious ones. I try to imagine QH as little as possible. Though I do occasionally imagine QH having the engaging conversation s/he's intellectually capable of, but unfortunately not otherwise up to.

wvng - I thought that joke was that hulagate WAS Buffalo Bill.

kathy - I just like that QH has popped up again after three months of silence, with apparently no conception that his party has lost disasterously and he is unarguably wrong about everything he says.

Cliff - I'm pretty confident QH knows all those things (except about being wrong). As you say, "apparently"

"Debbie "Stabenow" unsettles me."
.
She's Lorena Bobbit's first cousin...

kathy, Cliff, et al,
.
Remember, if it wasn't for QH's poisonalities, he'd be unique...

WTF?
.
The reason we're where we are right now is that the Republicans have voted in lockstep with Bush, regardless of the sanity of his "policies," regardless of the legality of his actions and regardless of anything other than tribalism. From Snowe and Smith to Inhofe, they've all hopped in the bus, and cheered him on as he drove the nation and his party off a cliff. And NOW we're hearing about Magic Powers of the president?
.
Unbelievable.
