And Morsi is called a dictator?

The Comrade sent Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner over to congress yesterday to negotiate a solution for the looming fiscal crisis.

On behalf of the White House, Geithner suggested tax increases to raise about $600 billion, a second stimulus package, and -- get this -- that congress should relinquish its authority to set a limit on federal borrowing.

In other words, the Comrade wants to raise taxes, throw billions more down some rat hole (probably one affiliated with political thugs from Chicago), and wants to borrow and spend as much money as he wants with no control, no accountability.

For one thing, congress can't relinquish its control of budgeting and spending without a Constitutional amendment.

AND THE VERY FACT THAT THIS ADMINISTRATION WOULD SUGGEST SUCH A THING PROBABLY MAKES IT LIABLE FOR IMPEACHMENT.

Anyway, I'm struck by a peculiar contrast. In Egypt, they elected a wannabe dictator in Morsi. So when Morsi came right out and issued diktats right and left seizing totalitarian powers, hundreds of thousands of Eggyptian poured into the public squares again in protest.

In the USA, we elected a wannabe dictator in the Comrade. So when the Comrade tries to seize totalilitarian control, we get a bunch of disgraceful assholes (Jamie Fox among them) painting him as a saint and a hero.

What's wrong with this picture?

I'm afraid America is doomed.
