The "lame duck" sympathy infomercial has begun in the corporate media. You're going to start seeing more and more softball interviews with Bush like the one below, with crackling fireplaces in the background, Bush cracking jokes, saying he's sorry, chuckling, pretending he didn't mean to ruin America, and so on. They're preparing us for post-president Bush, the guy you could "drink a beer with". He's back! That's the same guy who campaigned in 2000 for president, remember? The "guy you could have a beer with." It's just that the 7.9 years in between the "guys you could drink a beer with", 7.9 Bush was a liar, a torturer, an actor acting like there were WMD's in Iraq, a fearmonger, a constitution-trasher with signing statements, a spy spying on Americans, a drunken sailor throwing a record amount of federal money around to his friends & family, etc... And while the "guy you could drink a beer with" infomercial is now in "REDUX", he'll be pardoning all his criminal cronies and presiding over the fake financial crisis in which he's backing the armored truck up to the treasury for him, his family, and all his rich buddies...while he's doing informercial interviews in front of crackling fireplaces. Are you gonna have a beer with him? It's only an act. ACT II of "the guy you would have a beer with". Remember that guy? He ran a campaign for president in 2000. Now he's pretending he's sorry for what Bush 7.9 did...but he's really not sorry, it's just an infomercial to market "the guy you would drink a beer with"...again. That's the guy they're hoping Americans don't come after for what Bush 7.9 did...
President Bush telling us in February, that there's no recession on the horizon. Techincally, he wasn't lying. At that time, the recession wasn't "on the horizon", we were living in it for several months already.A new report by the National Bureau of Economic Research has concluded that the US economy slipped into recession in December 2007, a full year ago. In other news, the New York Giants beat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl last year, Barack Obama announced he's running for president (he's predicted to lose the primary to Hillary Clinton), there's no WMD's in Iraq, Big Dan started a blog, there was a big shooting at Virginia Tech, and Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated. In February, president Bush said: "no Recession in Sight". Now, Bush gets to retroactively say that there was a recession, because this report tells us this retroactively.
Just last month, rightwing pundits were saying: "the Obama recession is in full swing". I guess the Obama recession started in December of 2007 right before the Democratic Primary began and Obama wasn't the nominee yet! When they figure out that an Obama recession could not have began before the Democratic primary, I guess they'll blame Bill Clinton from 1999!
