81. I can’t resist comparing the economy and the American sheoples way of life to the Titanic…
Edited on Thu Apr-16-09 09:37 AM by Larry Ogg
So how does this sound?

The ship of state and the economy; previously being piloted by robber barons, war mongers, economic elites, sycophants, kleptocrats and a sundry of other bipartisan pathologically inept cronies, has hit a (we didn’t see it coming) huge debt based iceberg / bursting economic bubble / financial reality and is rapidly sinking; and in lieu of running the ship aground and saving as many citizens as he can, Obama is hollering full steam ahead; but don’t worry he is very good at multitasking. In addition to exasperating the problem by creating a bigger debt based iceberg, he is 1) filling the life boats up with the robber barrens and economic elites that were mentioned above. 2) he is also sending his advisers (i.e. the same sycophants, and pathologically inept cronies that where just following the orders of the assholes now sitting all nice and comfy in the life boats.) down into the engine room to try and figure out how they can get the engines to run on sea water, and 3) he is telling the working / low class passengers that are going all hysterical from the pending doom, too believe in the illusion that everything is going to be just fine, because the war mongers are protecting us from the likes of Al-Qaida, illegal Mexicans / immigrants, pirates and other boogie men…

Of course my analogy could be all wrong, and I am certainly glad that John McArmageddon isn’t in the White House, but the fact that the Obama’s just got a water dog aught to tell ya something… :rofl:

Edited to insert other boogie men.
