Government Shutdown Averted: Bad News, Good News




The bad news-- politicians did not heed Speaker Pelosi's warning against such draconian cuts.
The even-worse news-- by the time of the 2012 election, Americans will learn that 6 million geezers did not starve.
The even-worse-than-even-worse news-- Given our news-media tools' loss of their monopolistic control over public access to prior news footage, the ubiquity of availability of video clips of Former Speaker Pelosi's courageous prediction followed by reports of the still-living geezers will be endlessly replayed on continuous loops during the months preceding the 2012 election.
What does this mean? This means we need to revitalize and modernize our embarrassing-old-news-scrubbing division by having YouTubeGoogle find pretexts for removing such embarrassing videos.

The good news: He has now been proven to be a glorious leader as President by his ability to tackle the tough issues. His re-election is looking more promising. With his wise compromise in extending that evil Boooosh's Tax cuts, now cutting spending, and future roll backs on Obama-care the Democratic agenda that will be enacted in the next two years will get the economy finally moving again. Hiring actually started to grow again after he wisely decided to extend the Bush tax rates.
Business will start to see stability, fiscal sanity and regulation rollback and by 2012 the economy will be in better shape. Our smartest President in history will be given credit by default for getting the economy back on track and might very well be re-elected.

Now for the Bad News: I was really, really hoping that my sob story of how my life would be forever ruined by the shutdown would grab the attention of Jake Tapper of ABC News, and that he'd come to my house and do a whole story on how I was forever scarred for life by the Republican-induced government shutdown.
I dreamed of at one of his speeches, or of him quoting one of my e-mails to him, e.g., “I'm talkin' about folks like Commissarka Pinkie, who worried the shutdown would result in her death and then she'd miss watching the Royal Wedding. ‘Mr. President,' she wrote in her e-mail, ‘being able to watch the Royal Wedding is the first thing I think about when I wake up in the morning, and the last thing I think about when I go to bed at night.' Well, make no mistake, and let me be perfectly clear about this: It's folks like Commissarka Pinkie that I think about when I first wake up in the morning, and the last thing I think about before I fall asleep at night. Why, just the other day, I was sitting on the toilet thinking about Pinkie when Malia knocked on the door and asked, 'Daddy, have you saved Pinkie's life yet?' I'm happy to say that thanks to the historic deal we struck, the answer is yes.”
Comrades, I really, really thought this would get me a spot on the news. A cover story in People magazine. A chance to appear on Dancing with the Stars. And most importantly, lots of free stuff from people who feel sorry for me and are so touched by my courageous story, that they give me a big flat screen TV on which to watch the Royal Wedding. For fifteen glorious minutes, I could've been somebody. Someone extra special. But alas, who cares about me as much as I do?
For this, I will , ever. I shall renew my pledge to seek .

In the week leading up to the compromise, Fearless Leader was able to add $54.1 Billion to the debt. He then flipped the Rethuglicans the bone and let them deduct a paltry sum. The fact is the debt increased by $15.6 Billion.
Speaker Bo'ner is calling this a reduction, the joke is him!


I believe we have seen the worst of this anyway. The Tea Party is back to work and no longer a threat. Let's face it, these people have no other source of income besides jobs and business. I almost feel sorry for them. It's like taking candy from a baby. But hey, the People need their share so no regrets.


The Good News - energy prices will continue their inexorable rise skyward! So when a bitter clinger whines at the next town hall meeting "what can you do about the high price of gas?", Obama will reply, "Sorry, but the Rethuglicans ate your high speed rail!"


But Change has come! Now, when anyone complains about high gas prices, The Current Truth dictates that we laugh at those people. Specifically, we are to point our fingers at them, laugh, and tell them all they have to do is trade in their clunker that only gets 8 miles to the gallon for a hybrid, and problem solved--duh! Oh, and we could also suggest that maybe if they stopped having sex with Republicans, they wouldn't have so many kids requiring the need for a hybrid van.
Besides, just as he promised her during the campaign, Peggy the Moocher is indeed getting plenty of free gas from Obama. We all are!
And anyone who hasn't noticed that by now deserves to be ridiculed.


How many times does Dear Leader have to solve the same problem?
It has already been explained that if people will inflate their car tires properly and get a tune up at least every year. This "crisis" will go away.



Roy: "That's good."
"No, that's bad, because now I have to go to work and don't have an excuse to sit at home and complain.
"That's bad."
"no that's good, because my mother-in-law's visiting."


Ummm, but just what happens when the government shuts down? Congress doesn't meet and pass more laws or something?


snookered snookered skunked!
