March to Socialism:

GLENN: President Obama was recently asked a tough
question. Yes, believe it or not they will happen once in a
while. The interviewer, C Span hosts Steve Scully, asking
about soaring trillion dollar deficits and said at what
point do we run out of money? Here's what Barack Obama said.
VOICE: You know the number's $1.8 trillion debt, a national
deficit of $11 trillion. At what point do we run out of
money?
GLENN: Well, the way we print and spend money, I would
expect President Obama just to respond, well, we're not
going to, et cetera, et cetera. Here's what he said.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, we're out of money now.
GLENN: So the hang on. This is critical. The Messiah knows
that we're out of money now. That's weird, you know, that
he's aware of that because he's spending trillions of
dollars. That's like going to the mall and your wife is in
the Prada store and you are like, honey, at what point do we
run out of money? And she's got all these purses and
everything and she's bringing them up to the counter and
she's like, oh, honey, we're out of money now. Why are we in
the Prada store then? Apparently Obama knew he said
something that scenario at the Prada store, something true
but crazy. As Mr. Brilliant politician man, he should have
known you can't just say it that way. So he started to
backtrack.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: We're operating in deep deficits not caused
by any decisions we've made on healthcare so far.
GLENN: Okay. So that's your wife standing in the Prada
store: Honey, at what point do we run out of money? Oh, my
gosh, we are I mean, we're out of money now. But not because
of any bad decisions we've made in the past on buying purses
or anything like that, no. It's not our fault, you see. I
love this explanation. Not caused by any decisions that
we've made on health, so far. He doesn't even consider that
all of the other spending has contributed to the problem of,
you know, being out of money. So in other words, this might
be the first time your wife had a purse she doesn't have a
purse problem. She hasn't been spending money on purses.
She's been spending it on shoes. "Honey, we're out of money
now but not because of the purses." "Yeah, I know, but
because you were spending it on shoes." "Honey, we haven't
been spending it on purses. If I just buy enough purses,
then we'll be okay."
Here's Barack Obama once again.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: This is as a consequence of the crisis that
we've seen and, in fact, our failure to make some good
decisions on healthcare over the last several decades.
GLENN: See, the problem with the deficit is we didn't have
enough spending over the past several decades on the right
stuff. If we would have only given away free healthcare to
every citizen, visitor, illegal alien, exchange student,
maybe, then just maybe everything would be okay. Is anybody
buying this? How? I'd love an explanation. I mean, what
would have been a good decision in the past? Should we have
bankrupt our country back then? It's socialism. Socialism.
Not happy with the speed which we're destroying our country;
we can do it even faster. Let's step on the gas and
accelerate right into that red brick wall at the end of the
road we like to call problem solved. What? We're not
speeding out of control anymore. Isn't it great?
VOICE: That was even more overwhelming evidence that we are
destined to be a bunch of socialist pigs very, very soon on
the Glenn Beck program.
