George Bush Sr. is pictured conducting a "bake sale" to help fund his S&L Bank Bailout with the poor black child portrayed as "social need." Yes it's an old cartoon that I found thumbing through an old URW (United Rubber Worker) publication (Vol. 57/No. 4 July/August 1991) but I still had to laugh. Times haven't "changed" (there's that word again). I see "social need" as a childhood OBAMA saying, "I wanna grow up to be just like him! He's MY idol."
Is Obama Really that Different from Bush?
It's not a trick question. Put aside the Democrat/Republican thing and look at the similarities. No wonder there's a TEA PARTY! And honestly, if you're going to have tea, you should--by all means--have CAKE!
We can't forget how good ol' George got us in Operation Dessert Storm or simply--"The Gulf War" because Saddam Hussein of Iraq invaded Kuwait and all George and company wanted was control of the oil--oh, and a cover up on the S&L scam.
Obama can't keep America out of wars either. His political platform on which he was elected promised Americans to bring home our troops. I call that fraud and grounds for impeachment. Not only has he not kept his promise, he has the United States involved in more wars than the inherited War in Afghanistan. Now we are involved in conflict in Egypt, Iran, Syria and Libya. It is endless.
George Sr. cost Americans $1.4 TRILLION towards the National debt with his S&L dealings. That seemed like A LOT in 1992 when 14.2% of Americans were living in poverty and unemployment reached 7.8%. What is the National debt today? 14 TRILLION and climbing at borrowing 2 MILLION per minute. Now today, Obama's income for 2010 is announced--1.7 MILLION (and change) in earnings. He attributes this to "book sales." Reminder to self: DON'T BUY IT.
Let Them Eat Cake
It has been attributed to Marie Antoinette for saying, "Let them eat cake." It's unknown whether it was in fact Marie or another out of touch, greedy royal pain in the ass. The fact remains that we will be LUCKY to get crumbs.
