Debt Ceiling

[Dr. Ernest C. Ville, D.C.S.]

Now my political chops are nothing compared to Brother Wash's, and I count on his 16-hour-per-day programs to tell me what to think regarding the average political issue, but lately I have been traveling a lot for the Lord's Work, so I have missed a great deal. What is the situation with the debt ceiling?

On the one hand, the Lord certainly likes His Children to be able to spend with great abandon; after all, that is the great American Hope: deferred interest.

On the other hand, the Democrats have been spending like drunken sailors. Every since George W. Bush left office, Obama has been rifling through the checkbook like a trophy wife at a Bloomingdale's. It's sickening. And at a time when the country is hurting, the economy is in the toilet and money is tight, Obama is spending. Does no one else see the problem here??

I say we return America to her glory years, when President Bush was paying off our debts to China, when the economy was robust, and money was cheap. But this opinion is open to change, since like I said, I haven't heard Brother Wash's take yet!

Re: Debt Ceiling

My father used to give me advice regarding taxes: "Never vote for a tax, especially a temporary tax. There is no such thing as a temporary tax and you never get your money back."

It seems like good advice to me.

Re: Debt Ceiling

God warns us in the Bible (KJV1611) about what happens when the people yearn for an Obama "king" and the tyranny of socialism that will befall us.

And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.

And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.

And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.

He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.

- 1 Samuel 8:14-17

True Christians™ will note that God considers a taxation rate of 10% an Obamination. God's Holy Word alone should put a damper on the hell bound schemes of tax and spend DEMONcrats.

Amen, Brother Ernest! When George Bush was president, we had fiscally responsible government. It's true that Bush ran the deficit through the roof, but just look at all we got in return: tax cuts for the rich, no bid contracts, a privatized military, corporate subsidies, funding for Christian faith-based initiatives, the War on Terror, the War on Drugs...I could just go on and on.

Those were flush times! Thanks to no banking regulation, many Americans bought homes with subprime no-money down loans and got two years of teaser-rate interest, before their monthly payments quadrupled. And when the two years were up, they rolled the crushing debit into a new "home-equity loan" which carried them a few more years. And when that ran out, they could always charge their mortgage payments to their credit cards. And when they hit the limit on one credit card, they'd just get another, because we were handing 'em out like confetti. Meanwhile, we took their collapsing loans and rolled them into Ponzi schemes like "mortgage-backed securities, collateralized-debt obligations," and "credit-default swaps." Thanks to all this creative finance, I personally saw my income increase 9-fold, from a lousy $100 million a year in 2000, to $900 million in 2008. And I paid literally hundreds of dollars in taxes, so don't let anyone say that I haven't paid my fair share.

Then Obama became president, and look what happened! He threatened to NOT RENEW the Bush tax cuts. True, he didn't do it, but he threatened. That spooked rich people like me, so I cashed in all my Ponzi paper for bailouts and moved the cash to my bank accounts offshore. While I was moving my money offshore, I also moved all my factories abroad to avoid paying ridiculously-inflated American salaries (take that, union thugs!). Thanks to all this money fleeing America, people can't afford to pay their credit card bills anymore. It's a good thing we moved all that bad debt onto the government, or my company would be in trouble.

So now Obama wants to borrow more - thus he needs to raise the debt ceiling. Well, it's just like a Negro to go looking for a payday loan. What happened to the good old days when someone like him would be out shining shoes, or building roads along with the rest of the chain gang?

But when it comes to the national debt, the correct way to balance the budget would be to raise military spending, give the rich another tax cut, and pay for all that by canceling Socialist Security and Medicare. That would force a lot of lazy senior citizens to stop living on the public dole and practice some individual responsibility. There are plenty of jobs they could do: Wal-Mart greeter, recycling bottles and cans they pick from landfills, donating blood, etc.


Sister Sarah shows the way:
Individual responsibility and
low-everyday prices.

With all the money rich people like me would save through tax cuts and no-bid military contracts, there would be lots of new jobs. It's called "trickle-down economics." Of course, all those jobs are gonna be in China because I don't think Americans can build that "next-generation" jet fighter. Fact is, we hardly got any engineers left thanks to off-shoring and home schooling. But it doesn't matter - the Chinks can make anything cheaper than the USA, and if there's one thing Americans all like, it's low-everyday prices.

Re: Debt Ceiling

I'm just saying, there is historical precedence for what happens when socialists, communists and Jews attempt to destroy a sovereign nation with overwhelming debt. Back off commies, that's your last warning. When Obukkake exits in less than 1 year you'll see what we got for you. You ain't seen nothing yet.
