Whew! Thank Goodness Obama is Fiscally Responsible!

"Surreal" is the only word to describe this.
President-elect Barack Obama will convene a "fiscal responsibility summit" in February designed to bring together a variety of voices on solving the long term problems with the economy and with a special focus on entitlements, he said during an interview with Washington Post reporters and editors this afternoon.

"We need to send a signal that we are serious," said Obama of the summit.
Of course, the fastest way to fiscal responsibility is to borrow and spend another trillion dollars.

Seriously.

  1. "We need to send a signal that we are serious,"

    It's these continual Chauncey Gardener-like pronouncements, so sonorous, and reported with great gravity, as if he has solved the problems of the world with each utterance that is surreal.

    Take any person off the street, and they easily make that same statement. Completely interCHANGEable.

    It's going to be a long 4 years. I'm weary already. :)

  2. All this Inauguration mania is also surreal.
