Lying Liars and the Lies they tell: WHERE’S MY TAX CUT, OBAMA ??!!? (and introducing EPIC FAIL: The Carter Challenge)
Obama’s Shattered Dreams. To have lied, or to be clueless; either way, not very Presidential.
No, he probably knew he couldn’t cut taxes, but he was lied anyway, that’s my take. How could he possibly have been so clueless, especially being a well-educated, hyper-articulated Harvard type who studied for years to become qualified for the U.S. Presidency, the most important job in the world? How could he have missed this?

Poll: Despite Obama’s stumping, support for budget drops five points
Well, it’s about time. The Beltway is waking up to the realities of President Obama’s budget plan, which taxes, spends, and borrows as far as the eye can see. The president’s vast new commitments in the areas of health care, energy, and education have already spooked small-government Republicans and the foreign investors who help finance America’s public debt. Now even some Democrats are beginning to realize that the president’s fiscal policies are unsustainable in the long–and maybe medium–run. What took them so long?
The realities of the modern global economy require government to play a substantial role in ensuring the national and economic security of the people. Americans aren’t going to dismantle the welfare state. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are–like the Pentagon–here to stay. The task, then, is to ensure that those programs are sensibly structured and financed, and compatible with robust economic growth. And on this score, Obama’s budget is a big, fat failure.
Hmmm..Obama’s policies are failing. That’s good for the nation’s long-term survival. I wanted his policies to fail, given they were dangerously far-lefty and doomed our U.S. to socialism.
This last line is a puzzle..
If not, conservatives have a real opportunity to introduce a truly responsible vision of a welfare state that maximizes efficiency and growth. The budget outline that House Republicans released last week is a start, but it sure could use some work. And if the president persists in giving America a big and slothful government rather than a limited and energetic one, then it will be incumbent on Republicans and sensible Democrats in Congress to stop him.
What, pray tell, is a responsible version of a welfare state? A welfare state is a failed state. A responsible party platform would seek to employ every able-bodied person, and diminish the need for dole.
And ‘persists’? Persists? Obama has a challenge, now; to fail in a new and exciting way: to not FAIL as did Jimmy Carter.
It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.
Obama just can’t stand to be compared to Carter, so he’ll want to redefine FAIL in his own high-drama fashion.
No, a garden variety Hostage Crisis, some pre-teen double-digit inflation and vapid ‘energy conservation’ failures are just not going to be good enough for our ambitious Prezzydent. Look for a major international crisis where we, the U.S., will wind up soundly routed; up in the high-teens (or near-drinking age) hyperinflation numbers (and the corresponding Misery Index of Champions), and Cap and Trade (the Al Gore misanthropic dream!) energy legislation to pass; all of which will propel Obama up to the level of epic FAIL. We know he’s capable of that. He’s trained for it, after all.
All in four years! The ‘Carter Challenge’!

We tried to tell you it would take a LONG time to repair the damage of the Bush years. Guess you just don’t get it.
Damage of the Bush years? You mean the low unemployment rates,the soaring stock market,the low taxes, the strong foreign policy,the hope for the future of our children to do as well as if not better than us,the low foreclosure rate,the honesty in the Presidential message,the experience to actually have people fill a job slot that pays his taxes,the moral high ground,the pride to be an American,etc,etc? No, you are wrong, it has not taken long at all to “repair” those virtues. But now I do understand the “Bush Derangement Syndrome” suffered by the leftist nutcases the last few years. I now have Obama Derangement Syndrome.I hope this bumbling Marxist clown exposes himself quickly enough that he fails before 2010.I have NEVER seen such incompetence in a supposedly qualified person.Guess he wasn’t qualified after all,huh? He is a socialist-Marxist and I fully expect him to succeed with this agenda as long as the brain dead Peolsi and the equally inept moron Reid are in office.
