I want to hear them now. Give me your righteous explanations as to why this President's 11th dimensional chess tactics ultimately led to this incredible deal in which he incredibly outmaneuvered everyone.
You could also give me the excuse how President Clinton did it too. I liked that excuse by Lawrence O'Donnell, considering how this deal to refuse raising taxes, forcing the Catfood Commission down our throats who will "recommend" those cuts (again), but if Congress doesn't enact them then triggers will take place to make those cuts to entitlements instead. All in a time of a lagging economy. Yeah, that's exactly like what Bubba did.....wait......
Or better yet, tell me how he simply had no choice. Go ahead and tell me how his use of the 14th Amendment would have somehow been unconstitutional. Please use Michelle Bachmann's voice while you're at it.
Speaking of her, perhaps if you're running out of fucking excuses yet, why don't you start intimidating us and scare us into voting for Obama lest we have a President Bachman on our hands in 2012. It was a great fucking argument and scare tactic when Palin was making her rounds, no reason for you to back off now that Bachmann is surging.
I want to hear all of your excuses, because I just haven't heard enough of them. I want you and Lawrence O'Donnell to tell us how it was all a charade by this President so he could outmaneuver them all and get a "clean" bill to raise the ceiling.
But please, don't apologize. I know Mr. O'Donnell won't. No need for you to do the same. Just go about your day as if none of this has ever fucking happened. No need to acknowledge how Wall Street pulls the strings of this President just as hard as the previous one. No need to acknowledge just how hard this President is about to truly fuck us all.
Because that's exactly what he's done. Well, with the exception of Wall Street and the upper 2%, he's fucked us all. Not just us in the Democratic base. Everyone. Not that I care about the stupid Republicans who vote for those in their party who screw them financially every election cycle. But it rings true for them too.
He's fucked us all, period. But go ahead and share with us all your bullshit excuses, please. I'm sure I left some out.
