Regarding last nights speech to a joint session (theme: “a Tribute to meaningless Platitudes”)
so much to be underwhelmed by.... but one particular nugget:
“we have the worst economic recovery in 65 years”
to use the vernacular... wtf?!?
(yes I know what he thinks he is saying and what he hopes his audience is hearing, but still... )
“truly this is the least recoveriest recovery in history... but under my leaderness I;m going to create the need for the best recovery ever!
Once I’ve expanded the military -- and the infrastructure -- and the healthcare, truly complex the healthcare... no one really understood how complex the healthcare was... I got the best people from goldman sachs, really rich guys, really smart guys like me… we’re gonna cut the corporate taxes cut the taxes at the top, cut the regulations two-for-one -- two-for-one, is that a great deal? bring back the jobs, the good kinda jobs so the deserving americans can do all those deserving jobs that only great americans can do so well ... [crowd cheers]
once we get that goin’ and cut the taxes. gotta reform the taxes -- then everyone will see just how unbelievably great MY recovery will be, cause we’ll be so deep, I mean so really deep -- that Obama’s so called “great recession” will look like a little ditch, a little baby ditch... just a teensy ditch, compared to the yuge recession we’re gonna recover from…[crowd cheers]
and folks, y’know... it was not even Obama’s recession… [crowd gasps] no really, it's true... sure he took credit, but really it was Bush’s recession [crowd cheers] -- that’s right,
And Obama’s so called ‘recovery’ just terrible, a pitiful recovery... the worst recovery but once I get finished with this economy, we’re gonna need the greatest recovery ever! am I right!" [crowd roars approval]
