Obama To Admit Defeat (Or Apportion Blame) - Live Webcast

Tyler Durden's picture




 

At 11:35ET, President Obama will address the nation over how well the sequestration discussions are going. Following this morning's rumor-driven ramp, and Boehner's very recent comments that "discussions are over", we await the President's calming tones or hell-fire conjuring warnings... the question is - how many park rangers will be standing behind the President?

The next time this ahole addresses the nation with his 'fuck you' message, the nation should reciprocate by addressing this ahole by stepping outside enmasse and blasting a few rounds skyward.  Seriously.  Joe Biden said we should.  The sound of the powerful message rolling through the hills and valleys of America would be wonderful, empowering, refreshing, relieving.

All fire when the first 'let me be perfectly clear' is uttered...

This would be bullish for arms manufacturers!

I'll spare my rounds (which, if fired straight up have a better chance of coming back down on ME- I don't want to also help the medical industry!) and just concentrate spending my time working outside the System...

Brilliant. Now any downturn in the economy is going to be blames on the Republican house. As Omama said "every economic indicator over the next months could have been better without the sequester" Really!?!

New flash: BOTH parties do nothing more than blame each other.  It's the warfare/welfare state- they've got it covered

One side of the clown show is going to kill us by drones and other high-tech military means, and the other side of the clown show will kill us by creating a mob of entitled zombies...

Their economic "indicators" are the DOW.  Look at it and argue that they haven't made it appear fine...

Save your sanity and just realize that that which cannot continue forever, won't.  Those who are trying to time the markets are the ones who will go insane: Trying to make more clown bucks? all seems pretty silly...  One's strategy should be what it always has been: to survive for another day.

His non acceptance of responsibility is amazing. In one breath he has done everything that superman has, in the next he can't get anybody to do anything he asks. Such BS it hurts. Kinda love how he keeps talking crap about the CR's and Congress but his little buddy Harry and him can't even get a budget passed in 5 years. Please this ship is on the rocks and rolling and we have Captian O just fall into the lifeboat 1st.

And you believe that he or anyone else could "right" the ship, the ship that was ALWAYS charted to head over the waterfall? (perpetual growth on a finite planet)

This is a circus.  The design is to get as much before the collapse as possible.  And, really, fess up, people, who here can state that this isn't also what you are doing?  I am (but I'm NOT stealing, cheating or lying in order to do it).

Yahoo (managed news):

 

"The major averages have pushed to fresh session highs shortly after President Obama concluded his press conference in Washington"

 

Oh great perception managers....we bow before you!

In my office there was a 20% cut across everyone's salary including the upper management for this recession. So why can't Barry accept it also?

The top performing "company" of the last 5 years has been the US Federal Government. The year over year "growth" has been staggering. I propose we IPO the government onto the NYSE with the stock symbol USG.

US Gypsum beat em to it.  Speaking of which, I clearly recall Cramer once recommending buy buy buy USG at $48

I'm looking for a handy article that would show this data- can you point me to one?

"It won't cost a dime"

Since "it won't cost a dime" to implement his utopian vision outlined a few weeks ago in prime time; perhaps "it won't cost a dime" to keep everything being cut, no?

I guess everyone was a 'freedom fighter' back then. The question is, did he change, or did the West? I suspect it was the latter. It also seems he didn't do a whole lot, as I've never really seen any detailed list of bad stuff he actually did, or was proven responsible for, or admitted to doing. I'm sure he did plenty but I just don't know of any single thing that he said he did do to "the West".

And where I grew up one of the REAL western values was innocent until PROVEN guilty. Guilt by association was strictly not sufficient to conclude guilt of ANY allegation.

So how'd that simple principle get so fucked up by the media presentations I wonder? And what's more sinister? The Western media's habit of constantly twisting things into instant fantasies of assured but completely unsubstantiated 'guilt', or the reality of the person themselves?

I would say the former is clearly a more evil and untrustworthy deviant, the true snake in the grass, a process that then actively assisted the starting of wars, and many people were murdered, and for no rationally warranted reason, and no real evidence was ever given, and no guilt was ever proven.

With OBL they perfected the Hobgoblin.

Quite bullish for the MIC.  All the folks out there falling for the anti-commie shit just helped to weave their own chains (drones et al).  Clown to the Left, jokers to the Right...

Tyler,

Is Bloomberg just a retard or is it just the USSA party line to claim the USA has an infinite credit limit?

There's infinite resources, so what's the problem with there not also being infinite credit? </sarc> (anyone seeing the connection?)

The resources maybe limited, but the taxes, even the temporary ones, go on forever.

Sorry Tyler. Still love your page but this post is the mad definition of not-so-useful idiots.

The sequster was his administration's idea; he signed it.

As he has always done, he lies like a coward, never takes any responsibility, and illegally increases his unconstitutional power.

He is a mentally deranged meglomaniac, a black puppet of the powers that be, compromised by his hidden homosexuality and rampant drug abuse.

He is a domestic terrorist who will soon be killing citizens on American soil with impunity.

Like Hitler, he is the epitome of gutter filth, perversion, and under the influence of satanic power.

Unless he is removed by an authority he has not blackmailed, and imprisoned, this nation will be destroyed.

The destruction of the Republic is the single goal of this foul creature from hell.

Glad to see all the right-wing retards here getting heart-burn everyday for the next four years. Their "trickle-down" economic "principles" are slowly being thrust upon the trash heap of history like all their other theories (like, make millionaires into billionaires so they "create jobs" and let you clean their toilets at dirt wages).

Thirty years of "conservative" business theory put into practice has given us six banks that control 65% of American assets, six media companies that control 95% of all media, and a military-industrial-prison complex that controls 100% of the Republican Party and one-half of the Democratic Party. It's called RIGHT-WING CENTRAL PLANNING...Mussolini would be proud.

The same tools that rail against progressives are the same mega-braindead imbeciles who gave us the current RIGHT-WING economy we live in today.

Thanks to the Republicans, I will be forced to cut spending by setting all rapists and child molesters free.

Also, I will order our nations Forest Sevice to burn down our forests to save money.

Additionally, I will pick a fight with a dangerous adversary and then order our military to stand down, Bengazi style, while we, as a nation, are methodically burned to the ground.

Now, although the sequester was a White House idea, I am ordering my army of toadies and sycophants in the media to ignore this fact. If any of you choose to cross me, I'll burn you down like I did Woodward.

Thank you and Allah, I mean God, bless America.
