With deferrence to cartoonist Al Capp, President Obama is the greatest economist since Edna St. Vincent Millay, who said: "I burn my candle at both ends, it may not last the night, but for all my beaus and all my friends, it makes a lovely light."
Does anyone really believe that the President will abandon the core tenet of Obamanomics? That wealth re-distribution and massive government spending are the foundation of economic prosperity?

How is it that Rashad Hussain and the Muslim Brotherhood, who seek to infiltrate our government and our culture so as to transform our nation into an Islamic and Sharia-law governed theocracy, any different than Bernie Sanders, Anthony Weiner, et.al., who have already infiltrated our government and seek to impose a "Socialist Utopia" of Cloward-Piven inspired Ponzi-scheme, Nanny-state, entitlements and transform our country into a "benevalent oligarchy" ruled by academic elites and union thugs.

I hear that there is a new sticker on the bumper of the presidential limosine. It was inspired by the bumper sticker seen on the motor homes of senior citizens, which said "We're Spending Our Children's Inheritance." The president's bumper sticker says "I'm Squandering Your Children's Prosperity."

"Legalization" may not be in Obama's vocabulary, but I've heard that he intends to make a recess appointment of Tommy Chong to head the Drug Enforcement Administration.

On the other hand, will the state of California regulate the commerce of marijuana as extensively as the government tries to regulate firearms? How about if anyone wants to buy pot, they have to submit to a three-day "sobering up" period. Also, pot sales would be prohibited to anyone who is a convicted felon, or has a history of mental illness (gee, is medical marijuana a treatment for psychiatric disorders?). Think of all the fees they could assess if you had to have a license to procure pot? And you had to have mandatory substance abuse training in order to...

Brit Hume had an interesting observation on this morning's "Fox News Sunday." It seems that the much touted Obama pivot to jobs after the co-called conclusion of the Healthcare debate just hasn't happened. I've been giving this some thought and have come to the following conclusion: The fundamental tenant of Obamanomics is that massive govenment spending and wealth redistributive change are the engines of economic prosperity. Obama simply doesn't have any more money to bring to bear on the economic crisis. The government is tapped out.

And for those of you who may not have seen Paul Krugman (Nobel-laureate, running dog lackey to the Left) on this mornings ABC "This Week", he predicts...

Obama has paraphrased that revolutionary dictum from Fidel Castro: "Spend now, tax later."
