Stand up comic or serious statement?

[whitehall]

Washington is buzzing over Obama's "joke" or admission of failure when he said (with a smile) "our shovel ready jobs weren't as shovel ready as we expected". If he intended it as a joke it is profoundly insulting and if he admitted that his stimulous didn't work the credibility of his administration has collapsed.

the joke is on amerika - anyone with half a brain knows that that 3 trillion dollars we gave komrade obama was for communist groups like acorn and NPR and communist countries like brazil so they could drill our oil in the gulf of mexico and sell it to us ---they r going to destroy capitalism - once and for all !

He just keeps digger that hole deeper and deeper.

 

[The Rabbi]

It demonstrates the complete contempt and lack of empathy Obama has for America and Americans. This has been a continuing theme in his presidency.

 

[Rozman]

He is quite the little jokester isn't he? One of my favorites was when he was making fun of republicans and talking about the border and wanting moats for protection.Yeh it's real funny when Americans are getting killed in the middle of the night in their sleep.

So, Americans were NOT getting killed in their sleep when the Republicans controlled Congress and the White House?

It's a set up, In a week or so he will announce that the Shovel Ready jobs, are ready now, and we must pass another massive stimulus package or face wasting a great opportunity and slipping further into Economic ruin. Economic Ruin that is of course completely and totally the fault of Bush, Republicans, and rich white people.

 

[Zander]

Whatever happens, we need to keep him talking - off prompter. He does wonders for the Republicans every time he spouts off without his script. I guarantee we'll see that little gem in the campaign ads.....

 

[whitehall]

The question is whether the president really intended the stimulous package to stimulate the economy or it was a way for a crazy former community activist to trade really really big (taxpayer) money for votes instead of giving away $20 bills on the street corner.

It's a funny thing when the largest portion of the stimulus was tax breaks, which is what most of you say we need to get the economy rolling again, and then you complain about it. Maybe it's because the bulk of those tax breaks didn't go to the super wealthy that you didn't like them?

The largest portion of the stimulus was not "tax breaks." That is a lie spin by the Left.
Whatever passed for tax breaks were essentially payoffs to favored groups. THey would do nothing for the economy. Most of the spending went for waste, fraud, graft, and corruption. The rest got wasted.

The problem is that he's burying us in the hole because of his incompetence

 

[freedombecki]

Well, well, Obama seems to be burying himself with his own shovel of joblessness acceptance while Governor Rick People is singing the tune, "You're Hired!"

You go, guy!

 

[Claudette]

He obviously didn't know how anything gets to be shovel ready.

I guess he thought you said it and it was so.

More likely it just sounded good in one of his nifty little speeches. Who cares if it attainable as long as that sound bite sounds real good and the gullible believe what you tell em.

The truth does come back to bite you in the ass though. Hope it took a big bite.

Its his roundabout way of admitting that his stimulus plan failed.

Sure, but Obie Wan Kanobie was supposed to be the smartest guy like EVER and was going to fix EVERYTHING.

Guess not so much.

Tell us where those tax breaks went to...sure as hell didn't go to anything that did us any good. Besides, his "shovel ready" jobs were supposed to help so many people that were out of work. Today there are more out of work than there was back when he passed the stimulus, because the majority of that money went to his favorite people...the ones that gave him so much money to help get him elected. It was just a payback that he probably promised them during his campaign!
Unless people get some money in THEIR pockets, this economy will never turn around. It depends on people spending money, and when there is none to spend, we all suffer.

He's a professional street agitator "community organizer", he is trying to get Americans in an uproar, it fits his agenda. He would like nothing more then for an American uprising so he can claim marshal law and put the final nail in the coffin. Keep your cool, vote them out in 2012. We will vote the right people in and repeal and replace this socialist programs, and then we can get to work on getting America back on track of where the founders meant it to be.

I'm sure they where, but out ATF wasn't selling the murderers American weapons to do it with, and the cartels where not on our borders in full force back then either.

It's almost as laughable as "If we dont raise the debt ceiling right now, everything will collapse", and here we are over a month later, it has not been raised and nothing has happened. It's typical fear mongering from the left.
You notice how the left wing media has gotten silent over the issue now since it has been exposed as fear mongering.
