What are these clowns thinking?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

Today, Obama laid out a plan to cut 4 trillion Dollars from the deficit in 12 years.

My question and I don't care what side of the party lines you line up behind...

Why are these clowns talking such long term ideas when they won't be in office that long.  Obama didn't follow with Bush's ideas, so what makes him think somone else is going to follow through with his ideas. 

Congress cant' even make it from session to session with an ideas let alone 12 YEARS!

So, where are the heads of our leaders.  Never mind...I think I know!

William, I don't know what they are thinking, but you used the correct word to describe them.  They are all "clowns".

Over the next 1-2 years there will be amendments and bills filed to change what they did this year anyways.

Good point William.  Those clowns are only concerned with getting elected, not in what may be best for the USA.

Now William, this is hope & change in action. We just have to give these good intentioned folks a chance. Remember, this is all George Bush's fault. We MUST kick the can down the road and let an other administration "fix it". We all must be careful, dissent too much and you become a "domestic terrorist". Just ask the Chuck Cheese Owner in DesMoins, Iowa. How dare they counterfeit tokens the size of quarters!!

We have a saying in Texas; don't piss on my back and tell me it's rain.

I can tell you that all of our reps and senators need a plate glass window installed in their stomachs so they can see where they are going.  That's on both sides of the aisle too.

Hi William,

Isn't that what he racked up in his time in office?

Um, Patricia, they are fools with OUR money and THEIR stupid ideas.

They like to stretch things out for long periods because (1) they can make the numbers sound bigger, and (2) they will not be in office when the time is finally up.  Typical politics as usual. Hopefully these tea partiers will help fire the status quo politicians and get us some real leaders with a backbone.

Just another ploy to look good.  They know that there is NO way that anything they put into effect will last!

I'm tired of the politicans saying I have a plan and I'm tired of American's saying I'm all for that plan as long as you don't touch my programs.  Buck up America, we've all got to do some belt tightening, and it's got to happen NOW!

Ummm, because it took 30 years to accumulate a 14 trillion dollar debt....it might take more than one budget to significantly reduce it?  I'm just guessing.

I want a plan to fix things NOW, not 12 years from now when our country is entirely bankrupt.
