Why Having No Jobs Is the Republicans’ Fault

Nice little piece of buck-passing on Obama’s part, mentioning during his weekly address that Republicans “haven’t lifted a finger” toward job creation.

Yeah, unlike that one finger Obama keeps lifting.

  1. @4of7: “Unus digitus seditio” implies a collective action, i.e., “a one-finger uprising”. Basically, what the Occupiers are doing: having a one-finger uprising. (Seditio=sedition)

    Being quite a few years removed from what I picked up from the Loyolans and God’s Noble Dogs (Domini-cani), I believe the phrase sought is:

    “Unus digitus non erigo/erigum” (One finger not raised).

    (Removes pedagogues’s mortarboard, places it back on the shelf.)

  2. #4 – Bunkerhillbilly,
    I thought I did pretty good for having just checked the first English/Latin translating site I found on Google.
    So, One finger raised would be Unus digitus erigo?
    I liked the word seditio because it implied one not just raising a finger, but why they were doing it.
