Barack Obama likens our economic crisis to a storm. And he is the captain steering the ship through the tempest:
Brian Williams: You see what’s out there. You see what’s being said about you. What do you say to those Americans who voted for that man on the poster that said “hope”?
Barack Obama: Well, what I would say is that for the last two and a half to three years, we have been working tirelessly and nonstop to deal with the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes, and ultimately I’m going to be judged by whether we have stayed focused on making sure that this economy is moving in the right direction. And like the captain of a ship in a storm, you know, when the ship is rocking and people are getting hurt, they’re not going to be happy, no matter how good the captain’s doing. Now, my hope is that when we are on the other side of it, folks will look back and say, “You know, he wasn’t a bad captain of the ship.” What I tell everybody I meet whether they voted for me or they didn’t is, “This country always gets through these storms. We always right the ship. And we will this time as well.”
Unfortunately, this asshole didn’t bring a map and he left his sextant behind. His regulators have cut back on the grog, while beating the crew for insubordination. And on the horizon is the white whale that he’s being chasing through the storm. But unfortunately, his obsession is an illusion. And this idiot is steering the ship into a reef or promontory.
