Slick Willie Could Not Hold a Candle + Random Thoughts

   So I’m looking over / reading about some of President Obama’s budget cuts – umm, heating assistance to the poor, Pell grants among others. 

   You have to be the biggest idiot in this world to even consider the fact anyone will cut heating assistance to the poor.  Trust “ME” when I say it will increase.  And the same goes for Pell grants.  He is indeed slick.  He ‘knows’ that when push comes to shove, and should the wascally wepublicans submit those cuts, the people will rise up, and ‘HE’ will ride to the wescue.  He is indeed slick.

   The freezing of discretionary spending?  Another sleight of hand. The President RAISED spending by extreme levels during his first two years – and those raised levels are where he wants to freeze. The media, by not pointing this fact out is complicit in the sleight of hand. 

   The President has ignored his own commission's recommendations.  For the record… there ‘should’ be no need for commissions.  Congress should have the cojones to make cuts when required; since we all know Congress abdicated their responsibilities many moons ago, Presidents appoint commissions, and then after those commissions come up with their advice, it gets ignored. 

   We all thought Bill Clinton was a smooth talker.  He could not hold a candle to this young fellow, and the media ‘is’ complicit. 

   I am sure we can all agree with the great democratic victory for the people of Egypt.  I of course am somewhat skeptical.  I am not too sure just what the people of Egypt thought was going to happen.  This much I do know.  The military is in complete control, and that sounds like a coup to me.  Anyone knows (or should know) Mubarak was kept in charge ‘by the military’.  So…. methinks we are in for some interesting times along the way.
