Once again, America’s 44th president and worst-ever electoral miscue has ruptured the incredulity index with another egregious example of “acting stupidly” whilst in power.
Less than a month ago, the president visited the Great Wall of China and made it clear that spending too much money put the United States on a trajectory toward a double-dip recession.
As reported at signonsandiego.com, in part: (1)
“BEIJING — President Barack Obama says he's worried that spending too much money to help revive the economy could undermine a fragile U.S. recovery and throw the economy into a double-dip recession.
“That's when the economy begins to recover briefly from a recession only to be dragged back under. Obama told Fox News in an interview Wednesday that his administration is weighing tax breaks that could encourage businesses to begin hiring again.
“But he added that it's important to recognize that if the nation keeps adding to deficit spending through tax cuts or more stimulus spending, at some point people could lose confidence in the U.S. economy and that could ‘lead to a double-dip recession.’”
Hmm. For a fleeting moment, it appeared as though the One had finally come to grips with a dreary economic reality.
But perhaps all that talk was for the benefit of the new owners of the US of A, namely, the nation of China?
How else to explain the fact that, less than three weeks later, President Obama has relapsed into to the manic spending disorder so common among reckless liberals?
As reported today at brietbart.com, in part: (2)
“WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama outlined new multibillion-dollar stimulus and jobs proposals Tuesday, saying the nation must continue to "spend our way out of this recession" until more Americans are back at work.”
Which is it, Mr. President? Deficit reduction or spend, spend, spend according to the liberal suicide play book?
Is it sheer coincidence that this comes to the fore on the very day when Obama’s poll numbers dipped to 47 percent, the lowest of any president at this point in office?
As mid-term elections draw closer, Obama seems increasingly distracted by fears of being relegated to lame luck status next November, when the people are likely to give the electoral heave-ho to Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and other liberal knot heads that have facilitated Obama’s assault on America.
As if Obama’s mindless meandering about the economy is not bad enough, this administration has decided to make Christmas at the White House a “non-religious” experience this year.
Obama wants to celebrate Christmas as a “non-religious” event? Good heavens, is there a Republican mole in the Oval Office working 24/7 to torpedo the One?
The even bigger question: Will ObamaCare cover presidential dementia, including the pre-existing manifestation of said malady?
