All hail the great and wise leader Obama

I love when people call Obama a communist. I get this little... tickle inside and the only thing tjat makes it better is punching babies. I especially love when blowhards like Rush and O'Reilly tell the public to call Obama a communist and a fascist at the same time even though they dont have any clue what they're talking about.

Heres a recent snippet from The Economist:

Without a drastic restructuring neither Chrysler nor GM would have a chance for long-term success. Not only would thousands of workers lose their jobs, but the government would lose tens of billions of taxpayers' dollars. So rather than simply writing a check to the auto industry -- the policy of the previous administration -- the Obama team is focused on fundamentally restructuring these two businesses.

So far, the auto task force has done an admirable job of refusing to rubber stamp the industry's proposals. It's used rigorous analysis to make tough decisions. These decisions include "right sizing" industry capacity by cutting many union and white-collar jobs and closing numerous manufacturing plants and dealerships; making the unions accept lower wages and benefits so that these companies can compete; and cutting the debt crushing these companies by forcing many of the stakeholders -- workers, retirees and creditors (including the government) -- to take equity rather than cash for their obligations.

And here's what the news WOULD be reporting, if Obama was a communist.

Our Great and Wise Leader For Life Obama directed Chrysler today to cancel manufacture of all SUV models, trucks and sports cars and only continue to manufacture the Dodge Caliber and Chrysler 300M. So as to not make common workers feel jealousy to their fellow men, the public will only be allowed to purchase the Caliber. The 300M model will be reserved for government officers. In further cost-cutting, all models will be black.

Also, auto workers' salaries are being cut from $2.40 an hour to $1.80 an hour and breaks are shortened to 20 minutes a day including lunch. Of course, health care benefits will not be cut.

Union organizers tried to protest the changes, but quickly saw their error, and have not been heard from since.

We at the New York Peoples' News Reporting Agency applaud this brave and wise move and so do the international markets: the dollar is up to an all-time high against all foreign currencies, as far as you know, and of course, there is no stock market.


Now, I'll admit, theyre awfully similar; but I think you wise readers can see the differences, no?

His motives are painfully clear, especially to those of us who work hard for a living. At the heart of everything Obama does is his desire for a mass redistribution of wealth in this country. His goal is to funnel as much cash as possible through the unions who donated millions to his campaign. As one of the union bosses recently posted, 'We spent over $60 Million on Obama's campaign. Now it's time to reap the benefits'. To really appreciate Obama's total disregard for the Constitution, you should watch what he DOES rather than listen to what he SAYS. His rhetoric is meant to distract the public from what is really happening. His agenda is clear. The law means nothing anymore, unfortunately. WAKE UP GUYS! Pretty soon you won't even recognize this country.

You know, the Constitution, which you so nobly hold up in front of yourself, was not signed anonymously.

I think they should have an override in livejournal that lets you override the word anonymous with coward.
