It's hard to argue with stupid

...but somebody has to do it.

Seems old Nolan is already crafting--and failing at--the republican gameplan for defeating President Obama in 2012 (and good luck with that--did I mention he killed Osama bin Laden?) by "claiming" that the President's  policies are choking economic growth here in America.  As proof, old Nolan is trotting out those old republican bugaboos like the EPA and unions--oh my!--and berating Obama for picking on those red, white, and blue oil corporations.

Yawn.

If Finley truly believes this bullshit, he is truly an idiot. When it comes to elections, NOBODY gives a rat's ass about the EPA.  Pretty sure all of the recall petitions in Wisconsin--as well as the weeks of protest--show how the American people feel about unions.  And as for the oil companies...well $4 a gallon gas doesn't win corporations a lot of sympathy, and after the Great Recession the vast majority of Americans have lost all confidence and trust in corporations to look out for what's best for the American economy--hell, we trust corporations less than we trust politicians anymore.

But what's truly beyond comprehension is that Finley would be without a job if it wasn't for Obama.  See, like me, old Nolan lives here in the great state of Michigan, and had Obama not bailed out the auto industry we'd be looking at 20% unemployment and an exodus not unlike the Jews leaving Egypt.  Hard to imagine The Detroit News--which has struggled mightily financially--surviving that.

In brief:  republicans are not part of the solution.  They are part of the problem.  Ergo, sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up so those of us who really want America to succeed economically can set about to seeing just that happen.
