It is absolutely laughable how the so-called Repubs and T Folk are trying desperately to put a stink to the country's prosperity. Obama and company are out-Republic-ing the Republicans.

Isn't it supposed to be the Right wing of this country to lavish the rich with more money than they can count. That's why Cruz and company are trying to say that he cheated. If he did, he beat them at their own game and they're jealous! Bravo, Mr. President, fuck them up using their own dick............ha, ha, ha! I love it.

The country's doing well and these assholes can't stand it. They threw everything at him, including the kitchen sink, and he made it work. LMFAO!!!

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Two days after the release of an unusually strong jobs report, prominent Republicans appeared on the Sunday morning talk shows to question President Obama’s “suspicious motives” for repairing the economy.

“When there have been so many months of job growth, it does make you wonder what he’s up to,” said Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas). “You add in the rising stock market and falling gas prices, and the whole thing doesn’t pass the smell test.”


Appearing on Fox News, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell accused the President of “cynically fixing the economy to distract the American people.”

“This country faces serious problems, and I don’t think they can be swept under the rug by creating prosperity,” he said.

But the sternest rebuke came from House Speaker John Boehner, who warned, “If President Obama doesn’t stop fixing the economy, Congress has ways to make him stop.”

“If the President thinks he can fool the American people by putting them back to work and raising their wages, he’s headed for a rude awakening,” he said.

Wait a minute, I read the article and it's satire. Boy did I fall for it hook, line and sinker.

Bravo, Mr. Borowitz, Bravo!

but it sounds like something they would say, maybe not in so many words, but close.

Despite Bobo's goal to raise gas to $10 per gallon:

I'm sure the Big Oil companies would love the president to throw in with them, what an endorsement!

utter failure to accomplish this, you seem to grant him credit for his failure. And you also apparently grant him title of King of the OPEC Cartel, where he pressured energy prices down via price wars on oil:

OPEC too! Well, he is the leader of the world, but, hold on a sec, you guys accuse him of being a poor leader. So, tell me, how does he convince OPEC to follow his lead. Oh, I get it, that's where his failure comes in, oil prices going down - failure; so it's all an accident. Wow, I didn't realize how much power Obama has. One question. Who benefits from lower gas prices?

How his obstruction of drilling, mining, and any other cost-effective collection of energy resources you have convoluted into "leadership" remains a mystery:

Suppose you explain it to me. By the way, you gave me part of the answer in your statement. Thank you.

The govt lied as to how many enrolled by the March 31st target date. And you still buy into this mirage, as if it were tangible, real or good.

Funny.

The GOP relies heavily on its media monopoly and the dupes dumb enough to buy their BS. Reminds me of George Carlin's quote about stupid people.



The Democrats rely on it far more, as the Media are 80% or more in the tank w/ the " social democrats "

Reagan was quoting John Adams' well-known quotation, facts are stubborn things. He certainly knew the correct words--it was a simple misstatement--but it makes a funny quote in its own right. [note by Michael Moncur, December 01, 2004]

How omniscient of you.



You and Rappy are pretty much the poster children for this. Glad you spotted it.
