President Barack Hussein Obama (mm mmm mmmm) has a new campaign slogan:
Yes, we did.
And, according to Scooter, Republicans wouldn’t have.
They wouldn’t have set the economy back on track, (This is back on track?) passed a health care overhaul, or financial regulatory reform, according to Obama. Giving the GOP control of Congress again, which Obama acknowledged might happen, would usher in another era of a “you’re on your own philosophy,” according to the president.
If you mean bringing back smaller government, less taxes, and a pro-business philosophy, Americans heartily approve.
Per Scooter, in a fiery 30-minute speech at the Folly Theater in downtown Kansas City:
You’re going to face a choice in November. This is a choice between the policies that got us into this mess in the first place and the policies that got us out of this mess, and what the other side is counting on is people not having a good memory. They are peddling that same snake oil that they’ve been peddling now for years.
If there was ever a snake oil salesman…
Americans are poised to show their displeasure with Scooter’s first two years in office in just four months, so Obama is scrambling to come up with something catchy that will sway potential voters.
“Hope and Change” hasn’t worked out well for him.
The Democrats ignored the will of the people and voted for unpopular initiatives on Obama’s agenda, including the Porkulous bill and Obamacare. These mindless minions are now looking to their false messiah to save their phony baloney jobs.
Obama said, insisting the GOP’s political approach will fail:
We don’t have to guess how the other party will govern because we’re still living with results from the last time.
Obama shouldn’t have chosen Missouri for a campaign stop. He very narrowly lost there in 2008 but has visited there a lot since taking office. His approval rating in Missouri is below 50 percent. When Scooter visited Missouri earlier this year, Carnahan made sure she was out-of-state while he was there.
Carnahan blasted her opponent, Rep. Roy Blunt, for voting for the $700 billion TARP legislation in 2008. She called him “Mr. Bailout” during her introduction of Obama.
The problem was, Obama voted for the bank bailout bill as a senator.
The president either ignored the backhand or was too dense to catch it. Carnahan, the Missouri secretary of state, is running against Blunt for Republican Sen. Kit Bond’s seat, who is retiring. Pandering to her constituency, she has also vowed to “call bull” on Obama if she is voted into office.
Hey, isn’t he the guy who is endorsing you?
The narcissist-in-chief laughed at his own jokes and was at his community organizing best as he addressed the crowd. The Great Divider demonstrated his marvelous oratorical skills, calling out Republicans by name and having fun at their expense.
There must have been two teleprompters there.
Play-acting indignation, Scooter said:
They say no to everything. I go and I talk to them, and I say, ‘C’mon we can get something going here. No! Don’t want to.
Can’t you just see the man-child?
He insulted House Republican leader John Boehner for comparing Democrats’ financial regulatory reform legislation to killing an ant with a nuclear weapon:
You’ve gotta make a movie: The Ant that Ate the Economy.
He picked on Rep. Joe Barton, the Texas Republican who apologized to BP for the administration’s actions during the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico:
When I heard that, I said, ‘Naw, he didn’t say that.’
The audience of sycophants and the object of their adoration shared a moment, laughing at such witty banter. Obama continued:
The Bartons and the Boehners and the Blunts. (Alliteration. Congrats, Scooter.) They’ve got that ‘No’ philosophy. That’s the choice in this election: moving backward or moving forward.
Obama said that voters have seen this movie before:
So we know how this movie ends. Right?
With a Republican-led House and Senate, hopefully.
Boehner shot back:
On President Obama’s watch, more than 3 million Americans have lost their jobs, and unemployment is near 10 percent. The American people continue to ask, ‘where are the jobs?’ But the president keeps whining and indulging in childish partisan attacks. How out of touch can he get?
How does 39 rounds of golf since the Gulf Oil Disaster started grab ya?
Obama bragged that despite having no help from Republicans, Democrats have gotten a historic amount of work done in the past 18 months.
“Work” or Destruction?
By using the phrase “Yes, we did,” as a slogan, Obama was trying to close an argument he started in Toronto when asked how he was going to bring down the deficit:
One of the interesting things that’s happened over the past 18 months as president is, for some reason, people keep on being surprised when I do what I said I was going to do.
A lot of the people who voted for you believed it when you said you were a Moderate. Surprise! Surprise! Suuurprise!
Vice President Joe Biden said the line again last weekend during an interview with Politico.com. Biden boasted that when U.S. troops end their combat mission in Iraq next month, the White House can “point to it and say, ‘We told you what we were going to do, and we did it.’”
Regardless of the consequences.
Obama said on Thursday that his policies, however unpopular, reflect “what we talked about during the campaign.”
Folks don’t mean what they say, and they don’t do what they say. People get surprised when we follow through and keep our campaign promises.
The words “shock” and “disbelief” are probably more descriptive.
One of the sycophants in attendance yelled:
Yes we can.
“Yes we did,” Obama replied, before hopping on his unicorn and heading to the mystical kingdom of Las Vegas to appear with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid at 3 campaign events.
Obama added:
And we’re still doing it.
And Americans are worse off because of your actions.
Please, November. Get here as quickly as you can.
