This'n'That; September Twenty-Third #1; Typical Marxists

ZERO-bama: A TYPICAL Marxist!
    "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, The Narcissist" YET AGAIN proves he's almost average; an average amateur; an average marxist!  Marxists are great at spending other people's money; keeping their foot on the throat of private productive effort.  BUT, they certainly don't mind participating in capitalism, so long as they can prevent--or at the very least, hinder--the 'serf-class' profiting from said capitalism.
    To that end--with a complete lack of ethics--"Clown Prince ZERO-bama, The Narcissist," then-U.S. Senator ZERO-bama most probably used insider-information in his decision to invest $90,000 of Phil Falcone's money in Skyterra (which was re-named LightSquared).  That investment was in early, 2005 soon after becoming a U.S. senator; soon after another major Skyterra investor (Phil Falcone?) raised $150,000 for ZERO-bama's "Chicago-style" political campaigns.  senator ZERO-bama made another investment during the same time frame, this one in a biotech company researching and developing a vaccine against avian flu.  Shortly after his investment--again, with a complete lack of ethics--then-U.S. senator ZERO-bama took the lead in pushing for more federal spending to prevent avian flu; H-m-m-m-m-m-m!?!
    That transpired in 2005.... let's fast-forward to the last couple of years.  Shortly after his immaculation, "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, The Narcissist"--through his then-Deputy Attorney General David Ogden--vowed the regime would crack down on conferences and other 'extravagant spending, especially during these challenging financial times.' 
As an illustration of the regime's ethics and honesty:
A mere three months after the Deputy Ogden memo, the Justice Department's Executive Office for Immigration Review hosted a 2009 legal training conference.  For delivery to said conference, you--the taxpayer--paid $16.80 each,  for 250 assorted muffins; $9.60 each,  for 300 servings of cookies, brownies, various pastries and snacks.
So much for the crack-down on wasteful spending!  Should we have expected more?!?  Probably not; these examples came on the heels of the $787BILLION PORKulus spending bill, which--itself--was little more than political pay-offs to union hierarchies, donors,supporters and other fascists.
    The blatant arrogance, the complete lack of ethics seem to be the 'high-water-mark' for the "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, The Narcissist" regime.  I'll never live to see it, but what will the executive branch archives and presidential papers reveal to historians fifty-years from now?!?
