If you've been listening, you know what the repubs answer is to "Where are the jobs?" |
|
Good ole Joey Scar let the cat out of the bag today.
"Sometimes, it's not what you do, but what you DON'T do, to create jobs!"
You see, it's all so simple. Just go after "unfair" regulations that impede job creation. That'll do it jes' fine, yessir!
That's their out. Look for it.
You heard it here but you'll be hearing a LOT more of it as the question "Where are the jobs?" starts to be a drumbeat...

Scar slipped it in, kinda low key.
Mark my words, you'll be hearing this howler out of the mouths of all of the repuke talking heads...they knew it was coming and cooked up this little deviation...

take the quarterback's head off if we just remove the refs! Who needs penalties, anyway? The free market game will regulate itself! Let some basketball players try and drive the lane with no refs. There'll be broken fucking bones all throughout the paint. Listen up, idiot suckups to the free market: WE. NEED. REFEREES. It's called a level playing field. I swear, it's dumbfuckery at its best. K&R.

10. Terrific Analogy - Sports Referees and Regulation |
|
The reason why there are refs on the field is because at some point the game would descend into barbarism.
