Eric Cantor...Chickenshit.

Eric Cantor cancelled a speaking engagement at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.  Why?  Because as a politician he wants to reserve his availability to selected people (Wharton Students and Faculty) who would, most likely be a receptive crowd.  However, because the University of Pennsylvania has an open door policy for things like this, Cantor backed off.  Why?  He cannot face a crowd that is not hand picked.

His office claimed that the University of Pennsylvania had some sort of restrictive attendance policy for the event.  They claim it was always open to the public at large and has always been advertised that way.

If I was a politician, you can bet your ass every speaking engagement I had would be in the privacy of a room filled with paid adorers with me sitting in front of a roaring fire, smoking a pipe in a smoking jacket telling everyone how great everything is gonna be and that I am going to save them...through hope and change.

No, you can continue to keep your head firmly up your ass and pretend we were better off with Bush. You're a fucking moron, and we expect no less from you.

we were better off with Bush.

We actually were better off with Bush; weren't we?

Today is President Obama's 1000th day in office. Since his inauguration, America has received 9.1 percent unemployment, massive debt, the government take over of healthcare resulting in higher healthcare costs, Occupy Wall Street, 900 days without a budget from Senate democrats, a skyrocketing poverty rate, 43 million on food stamps, 14 million unemployed and more.


The national debt stands at $14.9 trillion–$4.2 trillion of which has been added since Obama took his oath of office. Fourteen million Americans are unemployed–that’s 9.1 percent of the workforce. The unemployment rate has been above nine percent for 840 of the 1000 days, and the average unemployed worker has been without a job for more than 9 months. All told, 2.2 million jobs have been lost under Obama’s watch, despite the White House’s claims that the President’s $787 billion stimulus would create 3.3 million net jobs by 2010.

And what is the President doing to celebrate his 1000th day mark? Touring the country to promote the same policies that got us into this Obama lead disaster.

Unfortunately, instead of leading America toward fiscal sanity and a stronger economy, the President is taking the country in the opposite direction. Last week, his latest proposal to “stimulate” the economy with another $447 billion in spending failed to pass the Senate, but instead of recognizing that more taxing and spending is not what America wants or needs, he’s redoubling his efforts. Today, the President is starting another bus tour to sell a different version of the same plan–this time broken up into pieces of taxing and spending still big enough to choke a horse. It’s the same plan, only in different packaging.

So, are you better off today than you were 1000 days ago?

How so?   Economically we had increased government spending and a real estate bubble which burst, destroying the economy which we are still dealing with.

When is the last time you went grocery shopping, Pepsi?

I went yesterday.  Even as filthy rich as I am, I refused to purchase New York steaks, normally around $5.00 per pound, for $12.95 per pound.  Who can afford that shit?  Someone making minimum wage?  They'd have to work three hours (after taxes) to afford one fucking pound of that shit.

"keep your head firmly up your ass"  is self projection, dumbass
it's no wonder you are a 99er.......and then some....stop when you need glasses!

7 years in, his policies had unemployment down to 4.1, it's not his fault that the democrat congress fucked things up

so enlighten us as to the wonderfulness of Obama's 2 year reign with full power.

"We actually were better off with Bush; weren't we?" Suff

YES we were, Suff.
there's a movement at foot to get his image carved into the face of the moon.  too bad Obama fucked up the budget so badly that it will take 2 years of full Republican dominance to rebuild the treasury enough

Inflation rates in the last 3 years has been much less than in the previous 8 years.   If inflation is your concern you should be feeling much better now than during the Bush administration:

I couldn't give a rat's turd about the inflation rate.  I am in the unique position where I set my own prices for what I do.  The price of gas goes up 50 cents?  Pffft.  I charge my clients $5.00 PER MILE to travel.  The price of booze goes up a dollar (I don't drink)?  I charge an additional $20.00 for postage and handling.

Someone's gonna have to offset the prices of "stuff," and it sure as fuck ain't gonna be me.

Not everyone can do that.
