Crush Liberalism

Quote of the day, “Biden’s economic genius” edition

I doubt anyone was stupid enough to say this only to have the Vice Plagiarist turn around and steal it.  Ergo, this gem of lunacy had to come directly from his fertile gourd.  From our gaffe-tastic veep:

“And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not acceptable,” Biden said at the event on Thursday in Alexandria, Va. “It’s totally unacceptable. And it’s completely unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It can’t do it financially.”
 
“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation,” Biden said.
 
“Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, that’s what I’m telling you.” (Listen to Audio)

My friend’s wife tried that approach to their finances: “But honey, if I don’t spend money, we’ll go bankrupt!”  She spent.  They went bankrupt.  I’m just sayin’.
