Top 10 reasons why obama wont fix the economy:

1. I never held a job in the private sector.

2. Sucking on the public teat has been verry verry good for me and Michelle.

3. I never saw a government handout I did't like.

4. The more handouts I gives, the more dependant voters I create. Axelrod says so.

5. The only "economics" class I ever took was poverty law.

6. I never had any intention to fix the economy, Axelrod is using the recession as cover for "social change."

7. Doesn't everyone get to go to Harvard (for free) and get one of the Affirmative Action spots on the law review?

8. None of my voters has a real job anyway, so who cares.

9. Blago told me not to.

10. I will be indicted soon in the Rezko thing, so I have to screw things up quickly.

I always wondered what RAT stood for.
