Millionaires’n’billionaires

I cut together all the times Obama mentioned the wealthy in his “budget” speech tonight (click for video).

Wow. I thought this would be funny. Actually, it makes me want to start slapping and then slap some more and then give him a big ol’ slap. Slappity-slappity-slappity, mister class warrior man.

Two observations — he frequently made references to “as long as I’m president” and things that will happen in 2014, as though his next term is in the bag. And he repeatedly used the brain-hurty expression “spending reductions in the tax code” which, apparently, means new taxes (update: Joe Collins tells me this means elimination of some deductions and shelters).

Did he think that would fly?

Sorry, I got as far as “unpaid-for tax cuts” and had to bail. I absolutely loathe that bastard with every fiber of my being.

Yeah, we saw the return of President Sarcasticjerk. I don’t think this speech went over the way he hoped.

Considering that the Dems get their money from the wealthy, its not likely to help him much even if he gets any of it done, which is impossible.

Frankly, I think both sides in DC are missing the real feeling in the country with this kind of aimless talk. Even in CA, we rejected giving the state more money to waste. I doubt the Red states are in any more of a giving mood.

Just remember that The One does not REALLY do anything more than flap his gums like he did again today. ALL the evil done by FedGov is actually done by his enablers. And that AIN’T the bureaucrats. It is the Thugs with Guns, who have forsaken their oath of office to “…preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution…” but who instead bow and scrape before their Masters and then do WHATEVER they are told.

Be sure to thank them appropriately for the OUTSTANDING job they have done!

Some say blah blah blah, but I say blah blah blaah. I cannot believe people fall for this shit. But then I remember, 100 is the average IQ. That means there are a lot of really stupid people out there.

I can’t stand to listen to him either. Now I know how the left felt about Bush, I guess.

To answer your question: Sadly, Yes.

And Donald fucking Trump is polling high numbers as his competition from the opposing party. We are so fucking boned, with a pineapple, in a drill-motor. It’s 1996 all over again. God help us.

And what a Nightmare it is?

Radiation in your food, no jobs, your economy in tatters, your fiscal system about to collapse …

And your illigitmate sub-human nigger in the WhiteHouse wants to head back for another term.

Which States must Obama present his birth certificate in to run again?

What a Nightmare indeed …

I probably have an outrage deficiency. Somehow, I can’t get exercised about Oceania’s rants.

He’s like crazy Uncle Joe in the corner, wearing his underpants outside his trousers and shouting, “cunt! Piss! Nipples!” from time to time.

Tax cuts that went to every millionaire and billionaire? You mean all the millionaires and billionaires that contributed to your campaign *cough* GE *cough* Immelt *cough*

Yeah, let’s get rid of charitable contributions so that there will be even less for those in need. Stoopid facist f*cker.

That would be the nearly 50% who pay no taxes. The welfare whores, the unions -but I repeat myself, the lazy…they are all over someone else’s wallet but don’t dare think they would reach into their own wallets for the downtrodden.

Oh, now I see. Apparently y’all don’t have the TrollBlocker software for your browsers. Haven’t been seeing ANY of that! And now that I turned the blocker back on, it’s gone again.

Trollblocker software? Then you’ve never even heard of Harry Reid? Luck man, lucky indeed.

What I wonder is if Obama really believes this stuff. Either way the answer frightens me.

The US Tax code needs a serious overhaul. It’s been the playground of special interests, corrupt pols and just plain old crooks for so long that it’s like… a cottage full of nothing but kittens and tangled string.

Suddenly, somebody shoves in a barrel of catnip…

Apparently Jon Stewart wasn’t as kind to Obama’s “spending reductions in the tax code” as I was.

I have little doubt that Obama will find some dumb-shit way to “reform” the tax code and still somehow make it worse, but it is badly in need of some reform.

Not that vodka soaking is a BAD thing. It’s the troll part.
