Barack Hussein Obama—hitting his head against a wall (NOT meant to be political vitriol)
As I said on my post yesterday morning, I tried to post a political cartoon yesterday and couldn’t. I’ve not done this before. Today, I’m going to describe the cartoon. I would give credit to the author but can’t read his name. It was on a site that allows the cartoon to be posted by other sites.
First, let’s clarify a few things in relation to the federal budget.
1) The President proposes the federal budget.
2) Congress writes and passes the federal budget.
3) At the present time, the fiscal year begins on October 1 of the current year and continues until September 30 of the next year.
4) President Bush’s first proposed budget was for fiscal year October 1, 2001-September 30, 2002.
5) President Obama’s first proposed budget was for fiscal year October 1, 2009-September 30, 2010.
6) Once a President takes office in January after his election the previous November, he may propose changes to the current budget. However, it is Congress which must approve those proposed changes.
7) IT IS CONGRESS WHICH HAS ULTIMATE CONTROL OF THE FEDERAL BUDGET!!! NOT THE PRESIDENT!!!
The cartoon has eight panels.
Panel 1: Barack Hussein Obama (hereafter referred to as BHO) is standing before a tall brick wall (or building) with his back arched backward.
Panel 2: BHO slams his forehead into the wall with stars above his head and the word SPEND blazed on the wall above the stars.
Panel 3: BHO is still standing before a tall brick wall (or building) with his back arched backward and stars above his head.
Panel 4: BHO slams his forehead into the wall with stars above his head and the word SPEND blazed on the wall above the stars.
Panel 5: BHO is still standing before a tall brick wall (or building) with his back arched backward and stars above his head.
Panel 6: BHO has is hand on his sore forehead with a question mark and a star above his head.
Panel 7: BHO has an idea! The idea is symbolized by a lit lightbulb (incandescent at that!) above his head.
Panel 8: BHO slams his forehead into the wall with stars above his head and the word SPEND blazed on the wall above the stars.
SPEND! SPEND! SPEND! That’s the only “solution” he knows!
