Charles Krauthammer responded to President Obama’s latest announcement of a six year stimulus plan…
“Even Lenin had the modesty to stop at five.”
Charles Krauthammer:
“This is another example of this administration acting for the appearance of activity. It doesn’t have a clue what to do. It just threw a half a trillion dollars at the first stimulus. As we saw earlier in the show, almost 60% of Americans believe it did absolutely nothing. And they have no ideas. The economy is still in a ditch so they come up with a mini-stimulus… I like the way the president announces we hear this is going to be a six-year plan. Even Lenin had the modesty to stop at five.“

Yes Charles, Lenin stopped at five years, but then, he didn’t go to Harvard!
gus commented:
The slaughter is going to be epic.
Obama has nothing left but UNION THUGS, govt workers and blacks.
The slaughter is going to shock even Katie Couric.
iconoclast commented:
Stop talking about Obama like he is a dog! His Oneness doesn’t like that.
Of course, even a dog can be trained–which seems beyond Obama’s abilities.

If you get the National Geographic channel, Giuliani’s 911 is about to start on the East Coast.

Here’s the sad thing, Lenin stopped at 5, and he was a communist!
down with dems commented:
It’s too bad sane, smart, wise people like Charles Krauthammer are too smart to actually become politicians. It takes a special kind of person to want to be a politician, and unfortunately it usually isn’t the best and brightest and wisest among us.

How could I possibly speak of Obama as if he were a dog?
Dogs do have a modicum of loyalty.
As to ANOTHER stimulus, he throws fifty billion here and a trillion there because liberals believe that the only answer to anything is government spending.
And it’s not HIS money.
mark commented:
Obama is doing only one thing now…fishing the polls. He’s floating all his trial balloons and trying to see which topics will show some improvement in the polls for him. He could care less about jobs or the economy—it’s all about getting and keeping power. Fresh from his 6 month vacation, he’s getting word that things aren’t so swell on main street. He’s looking for new talking points that might score points.
Freddy commented:
What happened to the ‘Timely and Targetted’ part of the ‘stimulus’ discussion?
Does the White House think people should wait ANOTHER 6 YEARS for these make work projects?
Or is this money spread out so that the SAME UNION people can suck on this cash cow long after the Democrats are REMOVED from power?

I would much rather have Ol’ Yellow on the Oval than Ol’ Bumbler.
sandy commented:
Krauthammer says about Obama — acting for the appearance of activity.
The guy reminds me of a Carnival Pitchman. If he just hits on the right talking points we will follow him anywhere.
How bout Obama shutting up for the appearance of doing his job.
sandy commented:
Timely and Targeted went the way of the Comprehensive Immigration Bill. Then there’s always the old chestnuts — let me make it clear and the time for talking is over.
DocScience commented:
I love this guy, he’s incredible.
Krauthammer, of course.
sandy commented:
I can’t wait until Obama says the reason he didn’t get a second term was because of his color. We, as a nation were too bigoted to accept all he tried to do for us.
Guy commented:
Six years? He won’t be around that long ….
And please don’t call Obama a dog. There’s no sense in insulting dogs. They deserve better than that…..
Jennifer commented:
Obama’s talk of ‘railways’ reminds me of the Simpsons episode where Springfield was sold the ‘monorail’. What a failure that monorail was! What a failure Obama is! Stop, Obama, Stop. Sit, stay.

bg!!! Oh ThankYou!! Perfect Video if only the Kook Aid drinkers would wake up. They ((BHO’s supporters)) feel “”IMMUNE”" to Communism due to GREED!!! P.S. “Kook” was a typo …but it somehow ‘fits’ them. Greedy Kook Aide Drinkers. It’s GREED!!!!

He does have an idea of what to do… and he’s doing it. Cloward, Piven, say no more.
Hangtown Bob commented:
The Big O calculates that it has to be a six year plan, because then, the stimulus would continue to the end of his SECOND TERM.
Arch commented:
The more politicians I meet, the better I like my dogs.
Stuart commented:
I know! Let’s have a big six year program to do…uh,… this or that. It’s not really a stimulus. We could call it…uh,… Oh I know! We’ll call it the Great Leap Forward!
wanumba commented:
Krauthammer is a smart, decent guy. He’s too decent, unable to comprehend pure rottenness.
Obama’s 6 year plan means Obama fully expects another term in office … 2 + 4 = 6. By then, he’ll have transferred out all our wealth, totally equipped unions as his “National Civilian Defense Force” leaving the nation in bondage, and maybe he’s president for life.
Okay, maybe he only achieves HALF that – still a national disaster.
When Obama went to Kenya in 2006, he demonstrated he uses U.S. taxpayer money without restraint for his purposes, his associates are Muslims and Communists.
Look at Kenya today. Battered from Obama’s choice, Odinga, and Odinga’s muderous and bloody violent campaign to seize power, Obama’s continued support of communist Odinga has got installed a NEW CONSTITUTION that provides constitutional protection for sharia courts and abortion in Kenya.
What else does anyone need to know about Obama? It’s all there in plain view.

57 states, 6 year plan. More intelligent than we knew.
