Poll: Most ridiculous thing said at the White House "Economic Conference"

[kuozzman]

Well there were a variety of ridiculous things heard at the, um, economic conference....here are some highlights...

I don't think it gets much worse than Snow's comment, "We are the envy of the world"

1. MY government? Does he think he's royalty?

The proper term is "our government" or "my administration" or "the government."

[kuozzman]

2. What, you don't?

[DireStrike]

3. I think he also called it "our company" a few times.

4. Remember when Nixon said

that dissing him was "Blasphemy" ?

Blasphemy is dissing a king or a god.

[immoderate]

5. "I don't believe in burdening future generations" -Bush

Or something like that. I was totally ridiculous.

6. My personal fave isn't here...

...it's "we'll send a message to the financial markets that we recognize that we have an issue with both short-term deficits and the long-term deficits of the unfunded liabilities of entitlement programs."

Somebody should tell Chimpy that the entitlement programs he's gunning for aren't, and never have been, what's costing us out the ass.
