First it was Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the U.S. House for another dreadful five weeks or so, who decided to throw a lavish party to “celebrate” the many achievements of Democrats in the 111Th Congress.
Achievements hailed as “progressive victories” by that wild party animal from San Francisco include a Marxist health care bill in great disfavor with a majority of Americans, relentless unemployment, and a crippling increase in the national deficit.
So, what’s to celebrate, Nance, except for the fact that 60-plus Congressional Democrats from your House head to the unemployment line in January and the Speaker’s gavel will be pried from your corrupt, Marxist hands and handed over to a responsible person with solid American credentials?
While most Americans are still rolling on the floor with laughter at Pelosi’s “Come Celebrate My Demise” bash, President Obama decided to join the frivolity with his own declaration of victory, when no such thing exists, domestically or internationally, the later especially on the heels of his $200 million dollar a day fiasco-boondoggle to Asia.
As reported, in part, at Yahoo.com:
YOKOHAMA, Japan – President Barack Obama claimed a stronger hand on the world stage Friday despite electoral defeats at home, failure to get a free-trade agreement with South Korea and lackluster international support for his get-tough policy with China on trade and currency disputes.
The president flew to Japan for the APEC summit without the coveted trade pact with Korea or a united front with other countries against China's currency policy. He also endured a gusher of criticism from other countries about a decision by the U.S. central bank to pump $600 billion into the U.S. economy, something China, Germany and others believe could weaken the dollar and lead to inflation.
Even so, the president contended that his standing with world leaders is not diminished.”
As with Nancy Pelosi, delusions of grandeur seem to have overtaken BHO’s thought processes, thereby turning bitter defeat into coveted victory.
The burning question from all of this: Who is spiking the “achievement” Kool-Aid used by moon bats to kill the pain from November 2?
