Let the Comedy of Errors Begin

It's been awhile since I've posted here, but I think for the next 4 years I'll have plenty of fodder to make people laugh, cry, and perhaps maybe just THINK a little bit.....Normally I wouldn't print a story from the mainstream press to get started, but this was just too rich to pass up. After the story I'll have a little bit of commentary.....Enjoy!

{{{WASHINGTON (AFP) – Barack Obama will call on Americans to replace the "anything goes" culture of recent years with a new "era of responsibility" in his inaugural address on Tuesday, top aides said Sunday.

The president-elect penned most of the historic speech just a week ago, crafting an address that will be "heavily infused with this notion of responsibility and getting our country back on track," spokesman Robert Gibbs told "Fox News Sunday."

Rahm Emanuel, Obama's selection as chief of staff, said the inaugural address of the first African-American president, would stress the need to create "an era of responsibility" in the place of what has too long "been a culture of anything goes."

"We need that culture of responsibility, not just to be asked of the American people, but its leaders must also lead by example," Emanuel said on NBC's'"Meet the Press" program.

He said Obama would call on Americans to "once again restore a value system that respects and honors fiscal responsibility, and we all have something to give to our country and have an obligation to do that to return it to its greatness."

Obama will give his inaugural address around noon (1700 GMT) Tuesday just after taking the oath of office as the 44th US president.}}}

Let's just do this paragraph by paragraph.....Because this is just the beginning of the biggest load of bullshit we've ever had thrown at us.

Paragraph One: "Era Of Responsibility" Nice.....We get a new "buzz phrase".....and if you look at the acronym carefully you get EOR.....who might not have been a democrat, but he was an ass all the same.....(yes I know Winnie the Pooh's Eeyore is spelled differently but the comparison was too good to pass up.)

Paragraph Two: "Heavily infused with this notion of responsibility" I read that as bend over, more taxes......

Paragraph Three: "We need to create an era of responsibility to replace the anything goes mentality......" This from Rahm Emanuel who is up to his eyeballs in Blagojevich's pay for play scandal???? Cool.....I'm really impressed now......

Paragraph Four: Emanuel cont....."not just to be asked of the people but it's leaders must also lead by example"......And this from an incoming administration whose nominee for Sec. Tres. "forgot to pay his taxes" and another nominee withdrew because of a criminal investigation into corruption.....and let's not mention the deeds of the president's buddies Bill Ayers, Tony Rezko, Jeremiah Wright, and the rest of the looney or criminal lot.

Paragraph Five: "respects and honors fiscal responsibility" TOO MUCH!!!!! I have no debt, work my ass off, and do the best I can to give my family a good life.....The Federal Government will have a $2 trillion debt this year and he has the nerve to talk about fiscal responsibility? His new "stimulus package" does nothing more than bloat an already out of control Federal budget, and the very people who caused the whole financial mess are in his party.

Paragraph Six: And this is where we learn the truth about Obama....."We all have something to give to our country and have an OBLIGATION to do that to restore our country to greatness." There it is.....in unmistakable black and white.....Taxes are going up.....

So this is what we have to look forward to.....More taxes.....A deeper burden on the people who already give up too much in the way of happiness to fund people who made bad choices in life. A further loss of freedom because of the rampant left wing lunacy in Congress and the White House.....

It's going to be a fun four years.....Hope I can survive it.....

Good Day!
