Change you can't believe in... and don't want to

Heard the Comrade's State of the Union speech tonight. Let's see, demonizing bankers, once again pointing out that the economy was messed up before he was elected (it's all George Bush's fault), offering to "forgive" student loans if the student gets a government job after graduation (including a commission in the armed forces, Comrade?) He's brought transparency to DC (that was good for a laugh, though even he didn't dare use the actual word "transparency"), and the Republicans are messing up the whole concept of bipartisanship in congress... hmmmm... what else?

Nothing new or very important.

Oh. He's telling us he cut taxes. He's freezing spending -- in one small budget area, and after raising federal spending 20% across the board last year. Apparently the net effect of the "freeze" will be that funding can't be cut for three years. 'Course, us'n taxpayers are too stupid to figure that out on our own. Just another ruse to protect that pork. I mean, the Stimulus package and other wild spending sprees from congress.

You know, the Comrade launched his whole administration by buying off congress with the stimulus thing. Maybe that's why the dems are so leming-like.

He's still got his fingers crossed for seizing control of the nation via crap'n'tax -- undeterred by recent revelations and indications that climate change is an over-hyped doomsday myth. He sees the USA exporting windmills and solar panels to China. Rather like the conventional "coals to Newcastle" thing, isn't it?

And he's still trying to shove socialized medicine down our throats. He says he "didn't explain it well enough." Oh, I don't know. I think he explained it pretty well. It's just that we all understand now that everything the Comrade says is pretty much a crock.

If you want to see what socialized medicine is all about, look at the nations that have it. Nobody here wants it, Comrade. We understand it. We believe you don't understand it. 'Cause it sucks.

You'd think that with all those people at the Comrade's beck and call, he could at least get someone to write him a new speech. This sounded an awful lot like stuff from the campaign trail.

Chris Matthews says he "forgot he [the Comrade] was black for an hour tonight." By contrast, I almost never think about the Comrade being black. To me, the important thing about the Comrade is that he's a marxist-communist. Matthews' obsession with skin color must be a liberal thing.

Matthews was just amazed that "a black guy" could "stand up in front of a bunch of white people" and deliver a speech. I suspect Matthews has a peaked white hood with eye-holes cut out somewhere. Imagine that, Chris, a black guy giving a speech to white folks. Yeah, and he doesn't even have a "Negro accent." Ever hear of Marting Luther King? Frederick Douglass? Even Reverend Ike, for Pete's sake?

Chris Matthews is a bigger idiot than even I imagined him to be. Like Give-'em-pork-Harry Reid. Or Barbara Boxer, explaining to the head of the US Black Chamber of Commerce that the NAACP likes crap'n'tax, so possibly he should, too. I mean, all blacks pretty much look and think alike, right Barb?

Yeah, I guess the USA still does have a ways to go about racism. Funny how it comes from the left, though, isn't it? "The leftists doth protest too much" and all that jazz.

So, anyway, back to the actual speech. Just look at my last blog. One-trick pony. Nothing new here. No new ideas. Either the Comrade is a truly committed and uncompromising marxist, or he's incapable of innovative thought and can't come up with any ideas apart from those old worn-out, pie-in-the-sky, tried-and-failed policies that Bill Ayers was promoting 50 years ago. Actually, the speech sounded to me like he was talking about some other country.

And FYI, Comrade, I as one member of an apparent majority, am thrilled to pieces that the Republicans have been the "Party of Know." We'd all be even further down the crapper without their objections to unchecked socialism and their refusal to be steamrollered over socialized medicine and crap'n'tax.

I'm going to write a book about all this just as soon as I get some time. Not about the Comrade, but about why America is such a great place. Such an EXCEPTIONAL place.
