Like a whiny infant irritated by diaper rash and sour pablum, President Obama recently exposed his own inability to handle criticism and, really, opposition of any sort.
In Milwaukee at a labor-day festival to stroke big labor unions, Obama announced another $50 billion dollar “stimulus” proposal to revive the American economy which has yet to recover from his trillion-dollar folly signed into law 20 months ago.
Have you checked with VP Biden lately, Mr. President? He seems to think that America is “headed in the right direction,” if you can imagine.
Perhaps Biden knows something that you do not, sir? As difficult as that is to fathom, stranger things have happened, although I’ll be damned if I can name any.
Back to Milwaukee and what amounts to Obama’s rattle-rousing against the Republicans.
As reported at the NYtimes.com, in part:
“Mr. Obama also used Monday’s appearance here to deliver a hearty defense of his policies and take a few whacks at Republicans. “They talk about me like a dog,” the president said. “That’s not in my prepared remarks, but it’s true.” And Mr. Obama repeatedly referred to the House Republican leader, Representative John Boehner, as “the man who wants to be speaker.”
Like a dog, sir?
That seems most unlikely, sir, given the fact that the dog is generally considered “man’s best friend,” a designation that few, if any, Republicans would bestow on you or your administration.
As to another stimulus program, sir, most Republicans would be delighted to join you in a program that has a chance to work. Do you or Joe know of any positive benefit from the trillion-dollar mistake of 2009?
As far as Republicans talking about you as if you are a dog, why shut them up with a common sense action to improve the economy? Like extending the Bush tax cuts?
That will send the hyenas scrambling for cover, sir,
Otherwise, just roll over and get ready to spend the next two years in the dog house!
