What An Incredible Asshole

Is there no end to obama's lying, fear-mongering, and playing on the fears of the aged, infirm, and uninformed?

Evidently not.
President Barack Obama warned that, absent a deal, he can't guarantee older Americans will continue receiving Social Security checks next month.


What a gigantic flaming asshole. I don't have the time or energy to catalog all the reasons why we're in this mess, and why obama is part of the problem, not the solution. But I will offer a solution, courtesy of Warren Buffet, via Peter.
Warren Buffett: "I could end the deficit in 5 minutes. You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP all sitting members of congress are ineligible for reelection."
Elegant in its simplicity, isn't it. Although I would include the president and VP in that law as well.

And while we're at it, let's resurrect the movement that urged the following be passed as the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States".
I guess supporting the notion of accountability in government makes me some sort of Tea Party radical.

And that makes me proud...

No.
