Many people have sent me this visual.

if i had a city

He doesn’t need a city. He has a whole country to destroy. He wants what happened to Detroit to happen to the rest of the country. He’s advocating the same policies that destroyed Detroit. Once again, after five years of failure on the economy, he sez he’s gonna focus on it. I guess the last pivot and focusing like a laser on jobs didn’t go so well so now he has to pivot and focus like a laser on the economy. So, how’s he gonna fix the economy? By making four speeches this week ’cause nothing works better to fix a problem, than making speeches on it. He was sidetracked by trying to turn the Zimmerman trial into a racist event, but now, he’s back on destroying the economy.

He reminds me of a project manager I used to work with at IBM. Every Wednesday, we used to have what I would call the Inquisition Meeting. In that meeting we would have to say what was coming up next week and if we were ready for it. Then, we would discuss problem records. This guy’s solution to every problem was a meeting. In fact, you could make him one of those dolls with the string on its neck that you would pull and it would speak. In his case, you would pull the string and it would say (in an Indian – dot not feather – accent), “We will have to hold a meeting on this.”

No Ramesh, we need to fix the fucking problem! I was in the mainframe group. We didn’t hold useless meetings, we fixed problems. The AS/400 group, which was run by an ex-VM mainframe programmer, was run the same way. The rest of the groups, RISC, desktop, network, et al, were run by the children (folks who were under 25 for the most part) who didn’t seem to understand their roles of support and problem solving. They had problems that went on for weeks with weekly meetings with the managers of the programs they supported. I think that sometimes those managers just got tired of the weekly meetings and gave up. We old school mainframe programmers closed our problem records in less than four hours. We didn’t deal with program managers, but directly with the instructors involved.

Jug Hussein Ears Downgrade has had five years to fix the economy that he “inherited”. His signature legislation, Obummercare, is a drag on the economy and has exacerbated unemployment. It’s a job killer. Now his HUD agency has come out with new housing directives. It’s gonna make it easier for the dregs of society to move into upscale neighborhoods and destroy housing values. In other words, Detroit on a larger scale.

If Obungler had a country, it would look like Detroit.

We’re doomed!
