Obama Contradicts Obama



At 3:09:
"We've gotta make sure that each and every one of us is working as hard as we can..."


Um, Mr. President? Would that include working longer hours,maybe doing more overtime? Okay... At least you're consistent! /sarcasm

Earlier in the tape, around 1:15, Obama once more visits the planet of his youth!
And I think there are a lot of opportunities for us to increase exports and increase jobs here in the United States without us spending any money.


Who is “us”? And just where will all these magic export profits that don't cost anybody any money come from? Unicorn farming?? If it were so easy and cheap to sell your imports to foreign countries, without spending any money, don't you think a lot more people would already be doing it?

That reminds me of those real estate guys who are always holding seminars on how you can make millions of dollars, when it is pretty apparent that there's more money for them in holding seminars than in practicing what they preach!

At 1:22
If we increased US exports our share of exports to Asia by just five per cent we would be creating hundreds of thousands maybe a million, two million jobs…


And if I dated just five per cent more supermodels than I currently do... (ladies, are you paying attention?) Again, Obama has about as much chance increasing our exports without spending any money as I do dating a supermodel (I'd better roll up in a Ferrari!) Both are possible. Neither is likely!

And do you like how his concrete plan produces precise results? "hundreds of thousands maybe a million, two million jobs…". Yeah. Some where in there! I don't think this fellow knows what he's talking about, but it sure sounds nice. Reminds me of conman Robert Preston in the Music Man. Trying to sell every kid in town a musical instrument and tell them they can play it by the "Think Method": Just think that you can play it. Don't practice. Don't learn to read sheet music. Just imagine yourself playing in the band! We're just going to think ourselves into a couple million extra jobs!

I'm up to my hip waders in ObamaSpeak. Isn't anybody in the MSM going to help me parse this dreck?
