Obama’s “Betting On America” Slogan Explained

[Obama Dice via The Looking Spoon]

  1. Is that a horrible slogan or what? He gambled on Solyndra, gambled on LightSquared, gambled on Fast and Furious. His system, shall we say, needs a little work. It appears to be akin to MY retirement plan, which includes winning the Mega Millions jackpot.

    Oh, well, I guess he can bet on America all he wants. Just as long as he doesn’t go to Las Vegas to do it.

  2. BTW, did you see that he killed a restaurant owner here in Akron today? True story – he had breakfast at her restaurant, then a little while her heart gives out and she dies. I bet the autopsy shows that it was the sheer magnetic force of his personality that messed up her pacemaker.

  3. Obama’s campaign is essentially built on confusing Romney.

    Romney: “Obama is doing a bad job!”
    Obama: “Hey, I’m doing a great job! It’s the jobs that are doing bad and I have a plan for killing all those stinking bad jobs! Let me be clear! Death!”
    Romney: “…er,…,eh, say, what did you just say?”
    Voters: “Hmm, maybe Romney isn’t so sharp after all…”

  4. Someone give that man the number to Gamblers Anonymous!
    He’s showing all the symptoms, and he’s gambling with OUR money!
    We must intervene, in November, if not sooner.
    (from Wikipedia)
    In order to be diagnosed, an individual must have at least five of the following symptoms:

    1. Preoccupation. The subject has frequent thoughts about gambling experiences, whether past, future, or fantasy.
    2. Tolerance. As with drug tolerance, the subject requires larger or more frequent wagers to experience the same “rush”.
    3. Withdrawal. Restlessness or irritability associated with attempts to cease or reduce gambling.
    4. Escape. The subject gambles to improve mood or escape problems.
    5. Chasing. The subject tries to win back gambling losses with more gambling.
    6. Lying. The subject tries to hide the extent of his or her gambling by lying to family, friends, or therapists.
    7. Loss of control. The person has unsuccessfully attempted to reduce gambling.
    8. Illegal acts. The person has broken the law in order to obtain gambling money or recover gambling losses. This may include acts of theft, embezzlement, fraud, or forgery.
    9. Risked significant relationship. The person gambles despite risking or losing a relationship, job, or other significant opportunity.
    10. Bailout. The person turns to family, friends, or another third party for financial assistance as a result of gambling.

    This new slogan is a Cry For Help!
