Last month Nancy Pelosi went on record as saying that unless the pork…errr…stimulus package passes, 500 million of our nation’s 303 million people will lose their jobs every month. When asked if she meant 500 thousand people a month, she brushed it off by saying it “feels like 500 million”.
Such morbid stupidity and inconsideration towards the most simple of facts when in foaming, rabid pursuit of rancid pork becomes even more frightening when you remember that the Speaker of the House is 3rd in line to the presidency. It makes me wonder if President Obama’s apparent attraction to big mouths and little tiny brain cells is just to make his own underwhelmingly average self look better? And it makes me wonder if Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden are somehow related; maybe sharing a not-so-distant ancestor who practiced more than a little incest in the old nest?
I watch the unfolding of these first 2 weeks of what was anticipated as eagerly as the real Messiah’s coming and slowly it dawns on me that if this really is the best we can do, maybe it’s time to consider relocating. To Russia. As good as the Democrats and the main-stream media have been making George W. Bush look lately, even old Putin ain’t lookin’ so bad himself. At least the Russian Federation has a long, distinguished and solid record of experience in governmental tyranny and they’ve stockpiled enough weapons of mass destruction to give anyone a run for their money.
Oh, wait. We don’t have any money any more. That’s why we’re going to spend what really totals out to over a TRILLION DOLLARS to boost our non-existent economy. After all, when you have more people becoming unemployed each month than live in the whole country, something equally fantastic has to be done.
The Speaker really needs to just sit down and shut up.
