Barack Obama: “The Federal government is America’s largest employer”

September 30, 2013

  At roughly 5:00 this evening, as I was driving home from work, I was graced with the eloquent words of Barack Obama as he delivered his latest fear-mongering the-sky-is-falling-we-are-all-going-to-die-you-people-cannot-live-a-day-without-us-don’t-you-understand-how-important-we-are-we-are-all-doomed statement on the impending government shutdown.

  Normally when I hear the president speak my eyes glaze over and I drift away as he spouts the usual platitudes and demagoguery, however as I was driving at the time I was not afforded that luxury.

  During this statement he made a comment that drew my attention: he said that it was important that we remember “the federal government is America’s largest employer.”

  This may be the truest statement he has ever made, and doesn’t he understand THAT IS THE PROBLEM in the first place?!

    It was worse watching this bum on TV. I didn’t ‘t hear him say the golf courses would be shut down.

    Kudos to Bill Clinton for getting a real man’s quickie and never missing a stroke (pun intended). Think about it, Barry’s afraid to light up in fear of Moosh while Bill smoked Cohibas with the interns.

    Shut the damn thing down and throw away the key. We can find another way to fund our military.
