Lemonade Stand


With no disrespect to hardworking, diligent and honest third grade boys and girls who ply their trade of selling lemonade on neighborhood street corners in the summer, President Obama has been characterized by many as having "never run a lemonade stand", yet he is in charge of governing the largest economy in the history of the world. Gulp!

In a recent post in the Wall Street Journal which many of you may have read, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal spoke candidly about Obama's business experience in the private sector:

"I suspect that many in the Obama Administration don't really believe in private enterprise. At best, they see business as something to be endured so that it can provide tax money for government programs. 

Indeed, the President had to quickly retract his recent comment that the private sector was doing fine, despite lagging economic growth, stagnant wages and continued record high unemployment rates.  The problem is that the private sector is so foreign to our President that he would need a passport to go there and a translator to understand what is happening.

...While the liberalism of the Obama Administration is widely understood, the incompetence of it remans a bit of an untold story.  A few weeks backs, I made the comment that prior to being President, Obama has never run anything, that in fact he had never run even a lemonade stand.  That's a fun line, and folks were entertained by it.  But there's the problem:  it's not a joke, it's the truth."

Jindal continues, "We put a guy in the White House who has no experience running anything (ahem, other than his mouth). In that sense, the joke's on us.  But again, it's no joke. America simply cannot afford another four years of on-the-job training...President Obama needs to go because his liberal policies are wrong and bad for America.  But it's worse than that: it's basic incompetence.  He is also the most incompetent president since Jimmy Carter." (see note below about incompetence vis-a-vis competence)

Jindal concludes, " We simply have to win this election."


NOTE: President Obama may be incompetent in running our country but he and his Chicago thugs are very competent in running for the highest office in the world where no rules apply, they demean and diminish the opposition relentlessly and where truth and reality have no place at the table of Obama.
