Obama goes for broke

Not his own, though. Ours.

Here’s the deal: if Obama truly wants to do away with “tax code loopholes” for millionaires and billionaires so that Warren Buffett’s secretary doesn’t get screwed, the GOP should oblige and introduce a flat tax proposal.

Then have Paul Ryan tour the country screaming “Pass this bill! Pass it now!”

    It sounds as though Obama is interested in encouraging the Democrats on the 12 member super-committee to refuse to come to terms (“I’ll veto“), so to guarantee the automatic cuts inherent in the original deal. Slashing defense is the apple of Obama’s eye, despite having to swallow relatively minor cuts to other programs he’d rather not see cut. Besides, he can stand to the side and finger-point: *See? the Congress is impotent*.

    Just Obama being a total dick again.

    You know where Obamanomics would work best? The plantation:

    Slaves pick apples on a plantation. And each slave gets a percentage of apples that he picks to live on. The best apple pickers end up eating more apples, staying healthy, and picking more apples.

    Then along comes this dick Obama who is the laziest, stupidest fucking boy on the plantation and he knows it, and everybody knows it. So stupid lazy fucking idiot Obama proposes that the slave who picks the most apples is lucky to be getting the most apples and it’s not fair. So he whips up all the other lazy, stupid fucking slaves and they demand that the slaves that pick the most apples need to give the most apples to the people who pick the least.

    Apples rot, apples don’t get picked. Plantation goes under. Everybody dies. Whoops. Obamanomics fails again.

    Obama is a stupid, lazy fucking idiot. He sucks at golf, and he is a waste of oxygen. It’s time to get personal. Class warfare crosses the line of respect for the office of president. There is no respect due Obama. None will be given. He’s an idiot. Plain and simple.

  3. Alec Leamas says:

    A few questions:

    What is Warren Buffet’s secretary’s name? What are her duties? How much does she earn per year? Can I please see her W-2s and State and Federal Tax Returns for all years ending during which she was employed by Buffet and/or an entity in which Buffet has or has had an interest of held an office? Is any of her compensation in the form of deferred stock/stock options, etc.?

    I mean, she’s allowing herself to be a point in the national debate – shouldn’t the news media want to know/verify these claims? Shouldn’t the news media want to know that Warren Buffet’s secretary doesn’t make $300,000.00 per year and is therefore one of the very evil rich whose taxes are to be raised? Why just presume that she makes 19K/year?

  4. Alec Leamas says:

    Oh wait – nevermind. Snooki may be a Lesbian! Cover that instead.

  5. sdferr says:

    Sheesh alp, Obama’s not a dick, he’s a pussy.

  6. alppuccino says:

    I stand corrected.

  7. McGehee says:

    My wife’s cats resent that.

  8. Obstreperous Infidel says:

    Obama is one of the few that just happens to be a dick, pussy and asshole all rolled into one. It may be the only thing he’s good at.

  9. serr8d says:

    Heh. Alp’s rant is a thing of beauty.

    Must summon JD for extra-high-level denunciations.

  10. dicentra says:

    Warren Buffet’s secretary pays federal income tax.

    Warren Buffet pays capital gains tax on his investments, off which he lives.

    The cynical liar was comparing apples to snorkles and he knew it. Always assume they’re lying and you’ll always be right.

  11. dicentra says:

    For all the good it does you.

  12. Carin says:

    His argument is based on the idea that most people 1) don’t know that and 2) don’t understand why it’s “fair” and in our economic interest to tax investors at a lower rate.

    He may be correct. We’ve got a lot of educating to do.

  13. Squid says:

    Obama responded: “This is not class warfare; it’s math. The money is going to have to come from somewhere.”

    I look forward to the widespread reporting on just how little revenue comes in from a stunt like this, and how far they’ll have to lower the income threshold to make any meaningful dent in the deficit.

    I also look forward to the widespread reporting on just how many stupid, redundant, counterproductive, confusing, ass-backwards programs and offices exist in the federal government, and how it makes much more sense to eliminate the idiots sucking up tax dollars than to punish those who earn a living.

    Also, I look forward to Felicia Day and Karen Gillan showing up naked in my living room, and my wife saying, “Dude, seriously — nobody could blame you.”

  14. Blake says:

    I’ve known some pretty stupid people but even the dumbest understand that once the bank account is empty and the charge card is maxed out, there’s no more money to spend.

    Then along comes President Obama, who’s denial of fiscal reality is the stuff from which legends are born.

  15. A fine scotch says:

    Squid,
    Based on this article, the Karen part of your equation could happen.

    Jeff,
    I would happily pay each GOP congresscritter $100 to do this.

    to be a dick, pussy and asshole all rolled into one.

    Also a big mouth, he always keeps his options open.

  17. JD says:

    No fucking way would I denounce that poetic masterpiece from El Magnifico Al. Bravo.

  18. mojo says:

    “…so that Warren Buffett’s secretary doesn’t get screwed…”

    Well, in all fairness, Warren is getting up there age-wise…

  19. JD says:

    Dick, pussy, and asshole

    The very definition of transtesticled hermaphrodite.

  20. happyfeet says:

    transtesticled hermaphrodites should all be named Solyndra and given jobs at am/pm

  21. Stephanie says:

    Since he’s full of hot air wouldn’t he be a blow up sex doll with all parts available for rent?

  22. sdferr says:

    The other non-tax-hike side of Obama’s corrupt economic coin just happens to be price controls!

    So brilliant at finding and proposing futility is our man Obama, he’ll not be outdone by the worst to have appeared on the national stage before him.

  23. happyfeet says:

    when is the food stamp multiplier effect gonna kick in that’s gonna be a real gamechanger

  24. geoffb says:

    Obama said his speech “is math”. He didn’t say he wanted to see any.

    Seems his speeches are very multipurpose, math, bills, whatever needed, it’s in there.

  25. JD says:

    His list of false choices in that speech/campaign commercial is remarkable.

  26. motionview says:

    There is no-one, no-one better at the lying business than Barack Obama and his core team. That speech today was a masterwork. Between Axelrod, Plouffe, Jarrett, Obama, and whatever young dipshit they have writing this tripe every day, the end result is really a tapestry of lies, deceits, straw-men, and just blatant factually wrong statements that are presented as vox dei and accepted as such by his fanboys, the MBM. I don;t have the energy to read the whole thing much less point out the tens of lies in that statement.

  27. geoffb says:

    I don;t have the energy to read the whole thing much less point out the tens of lies in that statement.

    Precisely their reasoning behind doing this. First there was the “big lie”, but they are developing a new technique. The “school of lies”. Like with a school of prey fish the very number flashing by every second causes their enemies to get lost in the storm of wiggling, twisting, confusion.

    Economics, history and political science, how they’re taught in public schools and universities, in other words?

  29. motionview says:

    “School of lies”, that’s it exactly. AxelPlouffe’s contribution to the canon.

  30. geoffb says:

    Union officials believed the President’s proposal would take ‘billions out of the economy’.

    Union officials said the higher employee contributions — which would not result in additional benefits — amounted to a tax on families earning less than $250,000, which Obama has said he would not support.

    Brian DeWyngaert, chief of staff for the American Federation of Government Employees, said the move would also take billions of dollars out of the economy.

    The further mystery is: ‘if taking money from government employees takes ‘billions out of the economy’ then why doesn’t taking money from other people amount to the same thing? What special amulet do federal employees wear that makes taking from them bad? The President has an answer. Math, yes math. When money comes from people “who’ve done extraordinarily well”, it doesn’t take money out of the economy.

    “This is not class warfare, it’s math. The money’s going to have to come from some place,” the president said, speaking to reporters. “If we’re not willing to ask those who’ve done extraordinarily well to help America close the deficit, the logic, the math says everybody else has to do a whole lot more.”

  31. motionview says:

    The prog’s Gott mitt uns for the soft civil war: Science says do what we say. Math agrees, you Bible-thumping constitution fetishists.

  32. zino3 says:

    Karen Gillian found nude?

    Give me a break! She’s only twenty three. When I was twenty three I was found naked and whimpering all over town.

    Many times….

  33. zino3 says:

    “This is not class warfare, it’s math. The money’s going to have to come from some place,” the president said, speaking to reporters. “If we’re not willing to ask those who’ve done extraordinarily well to help America close the deficit, the logic, the math says everybody else has to do a whole lot more.”

    it should come out of Obama’s hide. Or maybe the Wookies humongous, 10 million dollar butt. Obama spent that money. I certainly had nothing to do with it.

    By the way. Anybody see Moochele’s “exploding ribbon dress?” It looks like she is wearing a windmill on her chest. Or maybe a tamale dispenser.

    Hilarious. I can’t believe that anyone over six years old would not explode with laughter upon seeing it, much less wear it!

    I’ll see if I can find the link.
