Obama balances the budget!............from Rico
Well, I can imagine that this could well be the 'spin' put on this historic event...but matching the national GDP with the national DEBT isn't exactly balancing anything.
To badly paraphrase Daffy Duck, only a "maroon" would think so, and we sadly have more than a few of those walking among us today.

Voters, Twinkies................from Rico
I sure HOPE that voters will not turn out to be mental Twinkies again in 2012.
To quote George Carlin, who had this pretty well figured out:
"The next time they give you all that civic bullshit about voting, keep in mind that Hitler was elected in a full, free, democratic election."
To which I add for the non-Obamunists who will appreciate it, it has been mandatory to vote in many places...even when there is only one party or one candidate.
- I often think of one party/one candidate these days as I can see no discrenable difference between the current pResidential incumbent and the challengers. Congress fits this situation too.

This can't be good.
