Obama's Latest Bailout Plan Summarized In 4 Words: "3000 Bucks For Thingamajigs"
For those who missed Obama's post-NFP sermon on Friday, here is a summary of the Keynesian-in-Chief's latest plan to fix the country: $3000 for everyone to buy "thingamajigs." We wish this was a joke.
The farce gets going 25 seconds in.

This man is a complete and utter joke. His economic policies include thingamajigs, dohickies and whatchamacallits. Brilliant.
This asshole was speaking at Honeywell, largest maker of Thermostats. He referred to them as "thingamajings". What a fucking douchebag. A 50 year old man who doesn't know what a thermostat is??
He doesn't need to know he has servants for that, as long as he has blow, young men, basketball and golf all he needs to know is how to read a teleprompter. It seems to be the "elite" class is ruling on borrowed time IMO
Barkeep....some blow for me and a beer for my teleprompter.
that's probably why he ALWAYS needs the teleprompter, no short term memory. 'Yes we can' was chosen for his 3 syllable limitation.
he must of wasted so many brain cells in the choom wagon
actually getting back in the choomwagon would knock some sense into him and help to make him a little more circumspect, its the blow that's fuelling the man now.

Fixed it.
That's a mil spec teleprompter, i.e. works in a wide range of temperatures, ergo doesn't care about temperature, ergo doesn't care to learn about thermostat thingamagiggers.
Wouldn't be awesome if he mentioned say, fixing the economy as a job for thing one and thing two?
You don't need thermostats in Indonesia. Or Kenya. Or Hawaii. So; no, maybe not.
HOORAY! Hey SILVER MAN! MARK ME DOWN THREE THOUSAND HANH!?
I'll vote for the scumbum.... (Not that it matters.)
I'm waiting for Romney's counter offer. Reverse IPO the USA Corp this election.
Why not $300,000? Or $3,000,000? Why not really stimulate the economy and reassure re-election? And a free iPhone, unlimited data & talk plan, for 4 years - for everyone? Why not include Greece in on the deal as well? Hmmmm?
Plan B. July Fourth.
Bullish for those gold thingamajigs !
... and the crowd ate it up.
Rather than thinking, "omfg this guy has no clue what he is doing!" They thought, "gee he's so funny, I do need a new thingamajig."
pretty sure those crowds get trucked in man. And they're akin to those styrofoam greek pillars he used.... fake and plastic.
The crowd ate it up and he was emboldened by it. It was actually interesting to watch. It wasn't by design, I don't think... it was a bit of a gaff... but he recovered and turned it to his favor. The person above who posted a reference from Idiocracy nailed it. It works because collectively, we are sooooooo dumb.
You know who to thank for turning POTUS into something that could look like Dubya or Owebombya. And all of DC like Babylon.
Never forget.
$3000 ? Is that all he is prepared to pay for a vote ?
Hopefully Mitt will come out and offer everyone $5000!!!
I'm just hoping for future tax exempt status......sorry Grandma.
I will vote for Obama in exchange for diplomatic immunity myself.
That's all the citizens are worth, in the USA voters buy you...
Excellent article. I laughed, I cried, I projectile vomited.
I haven't used the term "projectile vomiting" since my daughter was around 5 months old!
ah.... good times! good times!
I concur. Brings new meaning to the phrase "Keep your mouth shut."
With my $3000, I'll take 2 of those St Gauden thingamajigs.
I'm upgrading from ikea to the real deal. Leather. Already stocked up on popcorn.
Send the check. I have some "silva-MA-jigs" I have been putting off buying due to lack of fiat!
Silva-MA-Jigs !!!!!
I have about $100K of little golden thingamajigs hidden around my property
Amazing to me that he would mention paying down credit cards with the money, as his handlers certainly wouldn't want people escaping their debt servitude.
More hope from the dope!
Or was it the coke? :-)
The only reason the audience are laughing is that the President just promised them $3000.
Did u say Kenyan-in-Chief?
"thingamajigs"
Dat be a rayciss term!
Hey who ak-sed you? :-)
Is it my imagination or is he beginning to sound more and more like G W Bush?
DavidC
I have *no* idea why you got junked for that post. I thought the same thing when I heard the clip. Bush's $600 bought me 38oz of Ag. Maybe this $3000 will buy me as much.
OMG Obama is totally channelling GW Bush in this clip!
What? No Doohickies! That's it, I'm pissed!
/
Really, he screwed up big time............Wijits are the NEW thing.
Cat do the 300k thingie, that would enable foks to haul ass.
There would be a new $300k 'leaving the country' tax.
Fine by me.... That'll buy a hundred ounces of silver. Most of the inflation will be in iGadgets I'm sure.
Just like his fake birth certificate thingymajic
will need alot of thingys...ISM NY Index is......uh oh....
Jeezus. Make it fucking stop.
yes, dear lord who art in heaven, do this day, please, just make it stop.
in the name of the father, son and the holy ghost
make it stop
amen.
Trillion dollar promise. Where is that money coming from???????????????
From those to whom he then gives it back?
:-)
Actually, strike that.... it is even more ridiculous: "Hey, how about i'll make everything 10% more expensive, ergo you'll all earn 10% less.... and for this, i will give you 3000$?"
Zombiecrowd "Yay!!!! Thank you, you're so generous!"
"Where is that money coming from?"
Why the new VAT of course !
... after he gets re-elected !
From his stash.
Can we all pool our money and buy a new POTUS instead?
Ron Paul for the win!
Sorry, you must be a member of the Club to buy a President.
And we wonder why the economy sucks.
Yeah, we're beyond wondering why Obama sucks. (that was just some crazy college stunt, really!)
0.o
W T F ???
Disgraceful, Constitutional scholar my arse,,
American patriotism circa 2001/2012: Shop till ya drop! He just surpassed Dubya for dumbass pandering.
Not yet, but he still has until November to get there.
I never thought there would be a president I would hate listening to more than GW. I was wrong. I won't make that mistake again. Fool me once, shame on... me. Fool me twice... shame on... won't get fooled again.
Fool me twice?... Well- then you have some really BIG TITS!
I actually hated listening to Clinton more. Something about that perpetual shit-eating grin.
Agreed. When these types of people start talking, I always check to make sure my wallet is still in my pocket.
He just needed more slack.
-BD
yup. $3,000 sure could help my stacking & stocking efforts . thank you, Mr. President !
My thoughts exactly. But I think this time around it will be spent ammo & more #10 cans with a 30 year shelf life.
He said the magic word, thingamajig. I was expecting a duck to drop down.
That was funny.
On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.
H.L. Mencken's prediction has come true. Again.
And it will be a repeat either way.
MORGAN STANLEY IMPLIED VOL NOW GREATER THAN FB ABOVE 70%...TIME IS TICKING FOR MORGAN
'r fucked
Great leadership we have on this planet. Weird stuff. Good for bullion.
I can buy two more high quality (and very useful) didgeridoos.
HOLY SHIT ! Are you FUCKIN kidding me ? Well, its barry the bankster puppet, nevermind I even asked.
THINGAMAJIGS FOR FURNACES ! YEAH that will fix everything ! LOL wow
I'd prefer $3,000 worth of frivolous chotskis
Hmm what about the widgets and whatchamacallits?
"thingamajigs"
Dat be a rayciss term!
OK I have to say it:
He wants us all "nigga rich".
The entries are piling up: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Nigger%20Rich&page=3
The next bail out package will be"refund" checks to the pleebs to buy votes
NASDAQ testing 200 day MA...
Wow. Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States. Don't he make us proud?
Can we get a RESET here, please? 1776 Version 2.0, anyone?
in other news, "stocks are well off the highs" - all wouldnt we love to hear cnbc say this over and over
Is that 3,000 for everybody in the world, or just Americans.
A Honeywell thermostat is $60, not $3000 (not yet anyway).
I'm rich beatch

Hey- What do you call a thingamajig for the ChoomWagon?
So he's proposing a printing of enough money to pay every American $ 3,000.00?
That's 311,591,917 people X $3,000 = $ 934,775,751,000 "Lets Get That Done!!! Fukin Joke. Looks like a comedy show. Are Americans really this stupid??? God!!!
WTH, at this point why not. They already gave away Trillions to the bankers. Fuk it, pull all the plugs out and let the ship go down in one massive party. I'm beyond caring now.
Thank God, thingamajigs!
Gold crossed $1620 right after he said that.
It's actually five words
i just watched that clip again . i want to puke . asshole! banker plant ! ex-C.I.A. guy with familial ties going back decades, not even born in this country ! wake up, people / sheeple !!
Lynny!! You are getting so jaded! I remember your first post... So wide- eyed and wondering... Frustrated with your neighbors and family... No one would listen...
So I wonder: Are they listening yet? And have they wondered whatever happened to that sweet li'l old lady they walked and talked over every day?
It's always great to see you here.
Tomato.
Did you say "KENYAN in charge?"
FUBAR
You can buy all the thingamjigs and whatchamacallits you want, as long as you don't buy any doohickeys. Thats sir, is not allowed.
I think that was $3,000 for each American banker, to buy thingamajigs for the bunga bunga parties.
$3000 for the bankers to lend out to consumers who already have too much debt in order to buy thingamajigs.
What's up with his Texan draw?? Is it me or is he sounding more and more like Bush??
GAH!!! **CHOKE.. VOMITS all over the boards...
Cue Blazing Saddles damn it!
LOL, I thought of the little old lady in the street. "UP YOURS, N...!"
Are the unions on board with this? Thingamajigs are manufactured in Mexico with Chinese parts.
I've got whozits and whatzits galore. I could use a few thingamajigs
...looks a lot like a fork...
was hoping it would more like a spork. Much more useful.
What does one get when one crosses an alcoholic Kenyan buck with a dumb white girl from Kanasas?
Answer: a thingamajig
What is black and white, with red eyes, and has two middle fingers that always point up?
A Choom-U president.
Somebody rang my Thinamajig?? Here's some Thingamajig mockery from the Twitterverse, courtesy of Twitchy. Make up your own....
Mocking of Obama's 'thingamajig' continues with sidesplitting - Twitchy"Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this thingamajig."
"Dammit Jim! I'm a doctor, not a thingamajig!"
Oh, our aching thingamajigs!
***
Update:
Twitter’s mockage made The New York Times!
Dude: that thingamajig really pulled the room together...
More debasement of currency.
I could use 3000 bucks, good idea.
I missed it. Whos $3000 are we going to get? His? Is he giving someone else my $3000? Is he just printing it up so it's only half my money? Unless he's telling me i can keep my own damn money, he can get stuffed!
...izz cummin' frum hizz STASH!! OBAMA MONEY!!!
Das wyy we VOTE for hymm!

"Lets get that done right now"
This cult of personality gets more disgusting by the day. Like a bad stand up comic playing to his most ardent fans.
Great, I can buy more silver.
12on Paul
Wife and I will buy gold/silver :)
Meanwhile, the other side of the coin doing themselves proud...

"We wish this was a joke." - ZH
Well, it is a joke. The fact that this person is the TOTUS is an even sicker joke. Choosing Obumble for TOTUS over Dr. Ron Paul would be akin to passing over a bottle of Dom Perignon for a bottle of Night Train.
Watch it again and just look at the zombies...
$300,000 would be that much better, no?
Drunk walks into a bar and yells "Drinks are on me."
Bartender says, "Your credits no good. Piss off."
Drunk yells "Drinks are on him."
Who cares if there's no fuel in the tank, squirt some more ether in that carb, it's bound to start!
Excellent allegory
Clever. Mike in East Texas used that analogy on the 'Overnight With Charley Jones' show early this morning. Mike in East Texas is the man.
I had no intention of being clever. I would've attributed it to him had I heard it. The analogy is actually very easy to see and is nothing more than stating the obvious. We all know how it will end.
More ether backed cyphers and longer period of servitude.
"I had no intention of being clever."
I was complimenting you re. the astuteness of your observation.
Unless you live in Texas, I doubt you would have ever heard of Mike in East Texas. He is a regional personality who participates weekly on a local radio program. On Monday morning, he made the same observation you did, and he used the same analogy.
A thngmajig for my furnace! Yah, just what I need for the long cold SUMMER.
$3000 wil get you a gold thingamyjig,
1) I have some serious dislike of his predecessor
2) That said, If his predecessor had said this it would be on SNL for a month straight. Comedic careers would have been launched. Bill Maher, ugly mug and all, would have been smugly mocking the "Idiot in Chief" 24/7.
3) The only people less capable than this fellow are those that voted for him and the journalist who are silent.
It is a disgusting, pathetic state of affairs. WTFU you retards.
Shoot man, I got 3 Thingamajigs, 2 whatchamacalits & a cockamamie for only $500 Bucks. I'm going out now 'cause I saw whatzits on sale for only $300 & a 2012 Hoozamawaht, 4 cylinder with a CD player for $2000. With the $200 left over I'm gonna short the dollar.
Hey, my neighbor, Whozeewatsiss, went to that same store and he forgot to tell me the name. So, what's the name and where is it? Does Obummer shop there?
I've had this little joke for 3 years now, watching as the losses of the finance industry roll right onto the public balance sheet. According to some sources, the US has spent over $12 Trillion in one way or another, propping up the Ponzi. I've been saying we'd all be better off if they'd taken that money and sent a check for $40,000 to every man, woman and child in America; to do whatever they want with it. I've said they're just fooling around and trying to cover themselves up to now, and we'll know they're serious when they take such a drastic step.
Of course, I knew that would never happen because, while most people would use that to spend down their debt and solidify their financial situation (and you'd think that would be considered a good thing), that would eliminate the consumer debt in the economy, and without consumer debt, there isn't any actual money in the economy any more. So they'll never do it; or at least not until $40,000 is enough to buy 1 can of ersatz coffee and 2 loaves of bread.
Does the President know something we don't?
If everybody paid down their debt by 40K and those that didn't have 40K in debt spent or invested their 40K all the banks would be solvent and lending like crazy again to start a new cycle; or if you were now debt free you're no longer paying interest on your debt and can just paygo for everything you buy. The money would end up in the same place as the first bailout (the banks), but with much of our debts wiped clean. Instead of the original bailout adding to our public debt, and going straight to the bankers which just gave us the shaft.
That would be 100x more effective than the banker bailout, but it would still fail because it wouldn't address the cause of the crisis.
"It's the thingamajig, Stupid"
Fucking wow! So, were done with bread and circuses and down to crumbs and circuses?
If I get $3000 its going to guns, gold, or ammo.
Oh, maybe silver too!
Hey, I'm not proud - my vote is up for sale...good enough for congressman, good enough for me. Maybe Mittens will cut me a check for $4000....
[sarc=on]
My vote is worth way more than $3,000 and I don't need any thingamajigs right now. Besides, Mittens promised me $3500 and he said he likes me best so there Obama. I'll need at least $4000 to consider voting for you, let's face you have the money so just send some my way and vote for you I will...
[sarc=off]
How insane is this? The video is too short to get any context out of those statements, guess I'll have to work a little and find the full video to I can hear what other goodies he be promising us. You have to give him credit though, telling people he will give them money is always a pretty good vote getter, now Mittens will have no choice but to see Obama's position and raise him at least $500 - maybe by November we'll be getting a full years salary (at minimum wage) based on who we vote for. Now that's democracy and capitalism at their finest, don't ya think? Our political system has become a joke that has zero integrity, none whatsoever.
I can't listen to him but for a few minutes, same with Mittens - the shit actually starts to stink right through the television (or radio) and makes me gag - they are two very stinky men. Obama is a lier and Mittens is an idiot - great choice! Maybe we get lucky and the whole financial system melts down sooner than later and we get to put Ron Paul into the nomination because at that point the sheeple will finally figure out Ron is right and has been right all along...
It could happen if everything falls into place in terms of timing, we need the crash to start and be at its peak by early August before the republican convention. Then at the convention - MILLIONS of people show up (republicans and democrats) demanding that Ron Paul be made the candidate and Mittens goes back to destroying companies and stealing their value. Obama shits himself because they have NO defense against Ron.
Obama might have to consider using the NDAA and the drones to eliminate Ron as a candidate otherwise he'll get his ass handed to him come election day. Even the majority of Blacks and Hispanics would vote for Ron, shit we would probably have Europeans and Asians coming over to push for Ron. The world knows we have to change things, and they know (more then our population) that Ron Paul is the only viable answer right now...
So, hope for the crash to come sooner than later, we need a peak just before the republican convention if we are to have any chance at all. Remember, Ron is still a candidate he did not relinquish that status (nor did the nitwit Sanitation)...
I'm not giving up, while its a long shot it is possible that it could work, especially if things really go tits up (which is likely).
America! ... Fuck Y E A H !!!
I'd buy some new strings for that puppet ... sorry ... muppet ... these ones are much too easy to see.
thingamajigs will fix everything, Lord Barry has spoken. SO let it be,,uhhmmm ,,uhh,,,,ummm,,,oh yeah,,WRITTEN,,,,and ummm,,,uhh,,,OH YEAH,,,DONE !
Obviously valerie didnt send the teleprompter to MN .
With every trillion dollars added to the deficit costing around $25 million per day in interest alone ( at 1%)..even a promised $3000 does not fill me with confidence that Obama has things under control...however if he was to promise to end the fed and return the power to issue money to the people (as per Thomas Jefferson)then that would be a game changer. Borrowing from the Rothshilds to give Americans money to spend is only benefitting the Rothshilds..not the American people.
let's give the irs some chinga-majigs every aprul 15......
Impeach him!
Plenty of reasons to...I'm with you...
