WASHINGTON. BREAKING NEWS *** President Barack Obama has resigned the
Presidency of the United States!

President Barack Obama has shocked the nation! He called the White
House Staff into the Oval Office and announced that he is going to
resign as President of the United States. He has conceded the
election to Mitt Romney.

The President has notified the broadcast networks that he wants to
address the nation Friday (October 5th) night at 8pm. With the
faltering economy, the potential overturning of Obamacare, his low
approval level and after his devastating loss to Mitt Romney in the
first Presidential debate – with dwindling donors – he has decided to
call it quits.

President Obama faces numerous challenges at home and abroad. The
economy is getting worse and everything he does seems to make it
worse. Many in the White House feel that the President has fallen
into a deep depression. There are rumors that he started taking
Prozac last week.

He also does not feel that he has the experience on foreign policy to
handle the ongoing conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan as well as the new
military action in Libya in addition to the turmoil in the Middle
East.

But the President will seek to immediately calm Americans.

“I know that Joe Biden will be more than capable of stepping into the
Presidency. He already is putting together his new cabinet,”
President Obama told his staff. “Joe can hold the fort until Mitt
takes over in January.”

White House Press Secretary, Jay Carney, would not comment, but said
that the President will be “perfectly clear about his resignation
tonight.”

Joe Biden was unavailable, but WWN talked to members of Biden’s staff,
who say Biden is confident that he can handle all the challenges
facing the country. “Joe is an expert on foreign policy. He knows he
can deal effectively and swiftly with all military conflicts around
the world.”

Rumors are that Biden may appoint Hillary Clinton as his Vice
President. Further rumors have Joe Biden resigning in August, which
would make Hillary President and put her in position to easily win re-
election in November of 2012. Events are progressing rapidly

In spite all of the lies, distortions and smear attacks the Democrats
have
hurled at Romney, he still has one advantage. Obama's miserable
record,
failed economic policies and lack of leadership.

In complete information from the NYT, but not unexpected. While stocks are
up numerically the purchasing power of the dollar is down, mainly due to QE
infinity and the effect it has had on the value of the dollar. Items cost
twice as much as they did 4 years ago, not because the value of the
individual items his increased, but because of the fall of the dollar. If
you want more of the same vote for more government interference in the
economy and reelect Obama. If you want a chance at real economic growth and
stability vote for Romney. Not that Romney is all that great, but he's
better than the incumbent.

The deficit didn't grow under Bush. It started to avalanche.

Ever stand at the bottom of the hill and try to stop one???

The incompetence of Bush, his tax cuts, the two wars and the housing
meltdown led to a ballooning deficit.

What? Did you think it would just stop growing on 21 Jan 2009???

Seriously???

And it won't stop growing after Jan 2013, no matter who is in the White
House.

Well, maybe by 21 Jan 2010 because Obama said he'd get us out

The rate at which it grows might well. Blaming Bush for Obama increasing
the deficit by A LOT MORE is fucking stupid.

Or will you, three presidents from now, still be blaming it on Bush?

Spoken like someone with no understanding of economics. Read the
article. It makes it clear how Bush's policies are the driving forces
behind the ballooning deficit.

http://www.cbpp.org/cms/index.cfm?fa=view&id=3849

You're lucky Obama listened to the economists on how to mitigate the
effects. He kept you from sliding into Depression.

Problem is, getting rid of those tax cuts are a huge part of reducing
the deficit...which the Republicans in Congress continue to obstruct any
attempt to remove them.

Yeah, Obama's record spending has NOTHING to do with it.

Clinton IS responsible for the housing crisis. It was his administration that
encouraged giving mortgages to low income borrowers who later defaulted.
The fact that it took a while to come to a head is neither Bush's nor Obama's
fault.

You mean "Congress's record spending". The president only proposes.
Half of his administration had a Democrat controlled Congress, the
other half had a Republican controlled Congress. Debt increased
with both Congresses.

Half of it wasn't controlled by the Democrats. They never got the 60
seats they needed. They only held full control for like 42 days of that
time. The rest of the time, the Republicans stifled everything they
tried to do. Otherwise, Obamacare wouldn't have been gutted as much as
it was. The only way to pass it was to please the Republican vultures.

Technically correct, but the president signed it -- he wasn't over-rode.
And Obama lied about getting out of Iraq. But anyway, we were
comparing the debt under Bush and Obama, not the various sessions
of Congress.

Which BTW Romney has confirmed with his answer whenever he is asked about
his "plan" to balance the budget...especially AFTER he increases defense
spending...while NOT reducing SS or Medicare...and NOT raising ANY taxes.
When pressed he will only say he will work with congress cooperatively
(Ha!).

He has some secret tax deductions he will get rid of to balance the
budget, as he increases spending and cuts taxes.

Very secret.
