The election is still November of 2012, right??
It’s a little early for the campaign to begine, but I guess its the only thing this guy knows how to do.

Obama’s deficit “plan” really wowed ‘em:
Sounding the alarm about the country’s deep fiscal problems, Standard & Poor’s on Monday became the first major credit ratings agency to downgrade its outlook on the U.S. to “negative.”
The move signals the seriousness of the debt crisis in the U.S., which at most times is considered the safest investment in the world. It is likely to increase pressure on Washington to fix the country’s beleaguered balance sheet and could mark the first step to the U.S. losing its coveted ‘AAA’ credit rating that allows it to tap the capital markets at low rates.
Wall Street was spooked by the S&P downgrade, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeting close to 200 points at the opening bell, the U.S. dollar slumping against the yen and gold flirting with $1,500 a troy ounce for the first time ever. European markets, already jittery about their own debt crises in Ireland, Greece and Portugal, also tumbled.

Oh Good.
President Obama will discuss how he’s behind the 5% Minimum Paid idea because not only is it unpatriotic but bad policy to have 50% of Americans not paying any Federal Income Tax.

Don’t the other Armed Services get participation trophies?
Maybe Barry is starting to become Conservative or did he just forget to do the Liberal Thing?
Please find out for us Sunlen.

Under Barack Obama, the United States is marching rapidly toward third-world status:
“China and four other leading high-growth economies have taken landmark steps toward lowering the importance of the dollar in international financial transactions — part of a seminal shift in the move towards a multicurrency reserve and trading system.”
Does it seem remarkable that this clueless fool has sat for over two years without showing the slightest concern about the deficit? Barely two months ago he proposed a budget that would increase the deficit and the national debt even further. All of a sudden he seems to have come awake, although he hasn’t given a hint about what he intends to do, other than insult Republicans.

Reporting from Baghdad, Iraq yesterday, NBC’s Tom Brokaw said the Saudi Arabian monarchy is “so unhappy with the Obama administration for the way it pushed out President Mubarak of Egypt” that it has sent senior officials to the Peoples’ Republic of China and Russia to seek expanded business opportunities with those countries. – April 6 CNSNews
Saudi Arabia’s oil minister said on Sunday the kingdom had slashed output by 800,000 barrels per day in March due to oversupply, sending the strongest signal yet that OPEC will not act to quell soaring prices. – April 18 Reuters
Presidential elections turn on the economy. You think the Saudis know what 5 dollar gasoline will do to Barry.

No hard questions please, that’s why he goes on only “in the bag” news organizations. What a fake. Who in the world would believe he is trying to bring down our debt when all he talks about is investing (giving money to his buddies) with no profit in site and the usual tired class warfare rhetoric.

The Obama administration moved swiftly Monday to downplay ratings agency Standard & Poor’s downgrade of its U.S. credit outlook, calling the decision a political judgment that should not be taken too seriously.

“A hundred years ago, federal spending for each person was the equivalent of $200 in today’s dollars. After FDR, with all of his massive public spending, it was $1,000. This year, it’s over $12,000. How long can this continue? Not much longer. And if something can’t go on forever, it won’t.”
Does anyone seriously think that this fool has the slightest idea what to do about this?
