Aaaand, More Hypocrisy. Scare Tactics Are Terrible, Everyone. Well, That Is If You’re Everyone BUT Obama.

So now the President is putting a huge scare out to the American people that if this monkey poo monstrosity healthcare reform bill doesn’t get passed, we’re just all going to go bankrupt.

BOO! (I scared you, didn’t I?)

In an interview with Charlie Gibson, he spewed the following:

If we don’t pass it, here’s the guarantee….your premiums will go up, your employers are going to load up more costs on you,” he said. “Potentially they’re going to drop your coverage, because they just can’t afford an increase of 25 percent, 30 percent in terms of the costs of providing health care to employees each and every year. “

The president said that the costs of Medicare and Medicaid are on an “unsustainable” trajectory and if there is no action taken to bring them down, “the federal government will go bankrupt.

That is so precious.

Do you guys remember when he yelled at Republicans last summer for using scare tactics? It was kind of all over the news, actually. I mean, what a bunch of meanies those Republicans are trying to scare the American public. SHAME on them.

Here’s an example.

And another one.

And yet another one.

I could continue here, but I think you get the point…

The hypocrisy is so deep, I now need some of those ridiculously-expensive, couture, thigh-high boots that Michelle Obama got from France to wade through it all.

It perplexes me that people still take this guy seriously at this point.

GAWD.

Rahm Emanuel’s Mob Tactics Get Thrown Back In His Face

SP32-20090804-122406

Click here to read a letter to Rahm Emanuel written by Rep Darrell Issa (R-CA).  In it, Issa exposes Rahmbo for the mobster that he is, and says, basically, “You can suck it.”  (Note:  That’s my personal translation.  Issa was much more respectful.)

So the background is this:  Apparently, there’s been some letters of intimidation floating around to various members of Congress and Governors who have been publicly voicing their opinions about the effectiveness (snort) of the stimulus.   And, apparently Rahmbo is the driving force behind those letters, which in essence have basically said, “Oh yeah?  You think you can talk bad about Obama? Well, we’re going to take stimulus money AWAY from you then.” 

And Issa’s letter?  Totally calls Rahmbo out on it.  LOVE.
