It's yesteryear all over again. An in-coming president scolds the out-going administration for causing a failing economy. He blames the latter's reckless spending, and then embarks on a similar but more massive plan. It's FDR revisited.
But unlike Roosevelt's "Nothing to fear but fear itself," the new leader tells us we have rough days ahead of us, and "things will get much worse."
One thing that has us all feeling more secure is Barrack's promise to not smoke in the White House. President Clinton didn't either, did he? That would rise to the level of impeachable.
Pay attention because you'll soon learn whether a nation can spend its way out of an economic recession/depression.You already know the answer, but the smooth-talking folks you elected need your guidance. Tell it to them straight.
It's all so simple.
Overheard in the back room at Frenchy's Cafe
"Slick Willie will be the new senator from New York. Now the fun begins."
"I wonder how many of those half million workers who lost their jobs last month had two jobs."
"I can believe anything now. I saw a picture of President Bush and Barbra Streisand kissing. Or maybe their doubles did it."
