Just Say “No”
By Johnny Roosh
…but not to That One That Won, comrade.
The captain of the USS Jimmy Carter II is painting opponents to his plans to Socialize America with a broad brush as if Republicans are the villains in pointing out the flaws in his plans for the bankrupting of America Federal budget.
President Barack Obama said he won’t scale back his plans to revamp the health-care and education systems in his proposed $3.6 trillion budget and challenged Republican critics to do more than “just say no.”
They should say “Thank You.”
Thank you Mr. Obama for demonstrating to America so quickly and efficiently why we don’t usually have Democrats in power during an economic crisis and thereby restoring America’s short memory.
Thank you Mr. Obama for making George W. Bush look like a fiscal conservative by comparison.
Thank you for making me forget about my athlete’s foot fungus by starting my hair on fire.
Obama, gearing up for a fight in Congress over his fiscal 2010 spending blueprint, met privately with the chairmen of the House and Senate budget committees before issuing a public rebuttal to Republicans who have criticized his plan as including too much spending at a time when deficits are ballooning.
Silly Republicans. You picked a fine time to grow some cojones. Quit worrying so much about fiscal responsibility and living within our means and focusing on the crisis at hand rather than thirty years of pent-up liberalism.
“‘Just say no’ is the right advice to give your teenagers about drugs. It is not an acceptable response” to economic policies “proposed by the other party,”
…unless their timing is monumentally assenine and most Americans are against them.
“The American people sent us here to get things done and at this moment of enormous challenge, they are watching and waiting for us to lead,” he said.
…and they will be waiting a long time it appears. Picking up where the last liberal majority left off is not leadership – especially given the current environment.
I think our junior President might be surprised to find that those “things to get done” didn’t include a much larger government, policies that amount to kicking the can further down the path and a crippling national debt.
So stay out of the way Republicans. It’s Barack and his posse’s turn to screw our kids.

Obama looks like he’ll rename & restate the Bush policies that so irritated the left from 2001-2009. He’ll keep Bush’s insane immigration & spending policies as well.
He’s going to end up pissing off everyone who is not getting a big chunk of his stimulus package & that is less than 50% of the electorate, but the majority of Dem politicians.
The guy is still an Illinois state senator representing Southside Chicago. He just lives in DC.

Gee, whatever happened to the cherished congressional role of “advise and consent” and “dissent is patriotic” banners that were waved so bravely the previous 8 years? Looking back, George Bush would have liked to have just heard “No” from the Democrat minority; it would have been so much more pleasant than the “FU”, “Impeach” words and being alternately described as a criminal mastermind and the dumbest president ever.

It seems to me that politicians are to power & money as teens are to sex & drugs so “Just Say NO” is an approprate response to both.
Considering Obama’s experience in both drugs & power, you’d think he’d have known that.
