Quote of the Day
Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs
1 Corinthians 13:4-5
The Debt Ceiling Crisis Continues:
House Defeats the Reid Bill 246-173
I have to start this commentary with a couple of things I'm annoyed with in terms of the Demagogue in Chief. First, only an idiotic partisan hack like Barack Obama would stain the Presidency by using the bully pulpit to bash the leadership of the opposition in control of the House, chiding the House, arguing that the House, exercising its legitimate authority by the US Constitution, was wasting the nation's time for passing a measure Senate Dem vowed to defeat by tabling a House action twice. It's not like the Hypocrite in Chief has publicly chided the dysfunctional Democrat Senate for going on 3 years without formulating a budget. Should we expect the Hypocrite in Chief to CONSISTENTLY chide Majority Reid for "wasting time" given the fact that more than 41 GOP senators have signed a petition, noting that the filibuster would be sustained? Oh, and for the Senate Majority Democratic Clown Posse (Reid, Schumer, Durbin) calling yesterday's tabling of the Boehner follow-up to Cut, Cap, and Balance "bipartisan" because of a handful of votes, today's House action attracted 11 Democrat votes against Reid's sophistic phantom cut, no trigger, papering deficit spending past Obama's reelection attempt nonsense should likewise be termed "bipartisan".
Second, the Bore in Chief needs to stop his incessant boorish behavior staining the Office of the President and show a spine in cracking down on his whining, pathetic legislative cohorts, the unfailingly uncivil Debbie Wasserman Schultz (e.g., "GOP hates women", bringing back Jim Crow laws, House GOP leadership a dictatorship--second only to Space Cadet No Class Nancy Pelosi) or Senate Clown Posse Majority Leader Harry Reid, whom pathetically and unprovoked chided the House Majority Leader Eric Cantor over "childish behavior". Obama needs to demonstrate more civil behavior--which has been a challenge to this President, whom lacks the intuitive charm and grace of his predecessor in office, given incessant excuse-making Bush bashing, apologizing for American success, and other boorish nonsense.
I, for one, am sick and tired of President Barack "Trite Political Spin" Obama. You would expect something that goes beyond Primary School Teacher in Chief Obama lecturing all the naughty boys and girls in Congress with "can't we all just get along" pseudo-moralizing and "don't come out until you've come up with a bill that can pass". Easier said than done when Obama doesn't have the testicular fortitude to come up with his own constructive set of ideas--first, because he has no such set; and second, he knows whatever pathetic trite ideas he comes up with are dead on arrival; the only thing one side wants to do is spend other people's money and think they have the moral authority to tax more and more of economically successful people's money to pay their unproductive progressive spending and the other side (the GOP) is trying to void President Barack "Spendthrift" Obama's stash of blank Treasury checks.
