The Greatest Fighting Force On Earth is Not Impressed With Obama
I saw this at Free Republic. All I can say is that a picture is worth a thousand words.
Barack Obama is the recipient of our prestigious Asshat Of The Day award for comparing the Stock Market plunge to a mere “gyration,” which is similar to a daily tracking poll on a political campaign.
How in the hell did this guy ever get elected? Most people like me have lost over 50% of our nest egg. Obama is either an idiot or he just doesn’t care. I’m guessing he just doesn’t care.
The market is an indicator of where investors feel the economy is headed, not just where it is today. The fact that every time the White House rolls out a new proposal the market plunges shows the direction people with money in the game think the economy will be in the future.
“What I’m looking at is not the day-to-day gyrations of the stock market but the long-term ability for the United States and the entire world economy to regain its footing, And, you know, the stock market is sort of like a tracking poll in politics. It bobs up and down day to day, and if you spend all your time worrying about that, then you’re probably going to get the long-term strategy wrong.” ~ Barack Obama – March 3rd, 2009
This is just another “Sign of the Times” in this Obamanation.
Florida Woman Calls 911 After McDonald’s Runs Out of McNuggets
A Florida woman called 911 three times after she paid for a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets at a McDonald’s but the fast-food restaurant ran out of them and refused to refund her money.
Latreasa L. Goodman, 27, made the calls after she tried to get her money back from a Fort Pierce McDonald’s and the cashier told her all sales were final. Police released the 911 tapes.
“This is an emergency. If I would have known they didn’t have McNuggets, I wouldn’t have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don’t want one,” she later told police. “This is an emergency.”
The cashier told her to choose something else off the menu of equal value to the McNuggets, and suggested the restaurant’s cheeseburger called the McDouble.
“She’s trying to force me to eat something off the menu and I don’t want it,” Goodman told 911.
The first dispatcher, a woman, asks if there’s a manager there, but listens to Goodman’s complaints and says she’s sending someone.
The second, male dispatcher tells her he’s aware of the incident and “we’ve got an officer coming out there to talk to you.”
Police say Goodman was cited on a misuse of 911 charge. A current phone listing for Goodman couldn’t be found.
A McDonald’s spokesman said Goodman should have been given a refund, and she’s being sent a gift card for a free meal.
You just can’t make this stuff up!
Oh I get it… Team Obama’s strategy: “It takes a thief to catch a thief!” Brilliant!
Geithner: Obama to fight international tax dodgers
President Barack Obama’s Treasury secretary says the administration will unveil a series of rules and measures in the coming months to limit the ability of international companies to avoid U.S. taxes.
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told the House Ways and Means Committee on Tuesday that Obama will propose legislation to limit U.S. companies’ ability to shelter foreign earnings from taxation in the U.S. He also said the administration will try to limit wealthy Americans’ ability to use tax havens to avoid taxation.
He did not immediately provide details.
