Defining Moments
Pat Sajak
It’s as if President Obama climbed into a tank, put on his helmet, talked about how his foray into Cambodia was seared in his memory, looked at his watch, misspelled “potato” and pardoned Richard Nixon all in the same day. It’s fun to imagine the hand-wringing that must be going on within the White House as staffers try to figure out how to undo the damage their boss has done with his anti-entrepenurial riff. Defining moments in politics are strange beasts. Sometimes they’re only recognized in hindsight, while sometimes they throw the train off the tracks before a sentence has been completed. Sometimes their effect can be contained and minimized, while sometimes their effect on the political narrative mestastasizes. This one is very bad for the White House.

and I thought “The private sector is doing fine” would be the phrase that would be played from now until November…and we still have over 3 months for Bambam to let his true feelings slip as he gets more desperate to keep his ‘free’ private jet.
btw, I started my first business when I was 18 in 1982…Obama was doing coke in Chicago that year…

There should be other spots on the Wheel for the $$$ dishing out for green energy, shovel ready projects, bank bailouts, auto bail outs
Then larger spots for penalties for donating to Obama’s re-election campaign, Obama fund raisers at Celeb houses, ObamaTax, Keystone Pipline, Cost of EPA and Cost of trying to restrict our energy sources.
