Obama World View

Dim Won, a/k/a Dumbo, b/k/a President Barack Obama on the nation’s economy:

President Obama: The truth of the matter is that, as I said, we created 4.3 million jobs over the last 27 months, over 800,000 just this year alone.

The private sector is doing fine. Where we’re seeing weaknesses in our economy have to do with state and local government. Oftentimes cuts initiated by, you know, Governors or mayors who are not getting the kind of help that they have in the past from the federal government and who don’t have the same kind of flexibility as the federal government in dealing with fewer revenues coming in.

Not sure which is worse – his belief that the private sector is “doing fine” or his belief that the government is where we need to see the most growth! What’s really sad about this is – as I said on Twitter earlier – his private sector comments aren’t just White House spin: He really DOES believe the private sector is “doing fine.”

Sadly, Obama’s in a state of duhnial, much like many Democrats – including Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who said in October 2011 that, “private sector jobs have been doing just fine”, and blamed Bush (of course) for the current unemployment/economic issues facing America.

I beg to quibble. It not so much that Dim Won is bone dumb ignorant. President Fifty-Seven States is simply not that smart. However Dim Won’s problem is not so much cognitive, but rather one of mind set. Obama is wedded ad the hips to class warfare.  He see the world as either  campaign contributors, that is public section union employees, with involuntary dues check-offs, and everybody else, to wit revenue sources.

Dumbo’s problem with the private sector is not one of job creation, the presence or lack of, but rather the private sector is not a reliable source for campaign contribution The Obama plan is simple. Funnel txx collars to untionized public employees. Have their dues docked from their pay. Then have the unions funnel the money back to the Obama campaign.

There was a de facto referendum on that model in Wisconsin on Tuesday. It lost. Expect another such referendum in five months. with similar results.
