I’m glad to see Jim Cramer finally ‘gets it’. It keeps my head from exploding when I at least hear some people in the “Main Stream Media” acknowledge the destruction that is taking place.

Obama to outline plan to cut wasteful spending

President Barack Obama is outlining a plan Wednesday to cut back on wasteful spending, saying it would save Americans tens of billions of dollars.

Obama intended to explain how federal contracts waste taxpayer dollars and how his administration plans to curb that. The White House said the president wants to change how contracts are awarded.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano also are expected to talk about wasteful spending when they visit the White House.

It’s part of the administration’s plan to boost Americans’ confidence in Washington.

During last week’s White House meetings on the nation’s financial future, lawmakers and officials bluntly told top Obama aides that government contracts needed to be handled in a better way. The president’s own fleet of Marine One helicopters became an illustration of out-of-control spending.

Arizona Sen. John McCain, Obama’s Republican rival during last year’s presidential election, dryly told Obama, “Your helicopter is now going to cost as much as Air Force One.”

Obama said he already had spoken with Defense Secretary Robert Gates about the fleet of 28 Marine One helicopters that is now over budget at $11.2 billion, a price that has almost doubled since the Navy started the project.

“It is an example of the procurement process gone amok, and we’re going to have to fix it,” Obama said last week.

Obama has done more damage to our economy than the 9/11 terrorists did! I said it before, I’ll say it again… Trojan Horse!

Obama lied; the economy died

I am trying to capture the spirit of bipartisanship as practiced by the Democratic Party over the last eight years.

Thus, I have chosen as my lead, the proposition: Obama lied; the economy died. Obviously, I am borrowing this from the Democratic Party theme of 2003-08: “Bush lied, people died.” There are, of course, two differences between the two slogans.

Most importantly, I chose to separate the two clauses with a semicolon rather than a coma because the rule of grammar is that a semicolon rather than a coma) should be used between closely related independent clauses not conjoined with a coordinating conjunction. In the age of Barack Obama, there is little more important than maintaining the integrity of our language – against the onslaught of Orwellian language abuse that is already a babbling brook, and will soon be a cataract of verbal deception.

The other difference is that George W. Bush didn’t lie about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. He was merely mistaken. Whereas President Obama told a whopper last week when he claimed he was not for bigger government.
