Rewarding friends…

In case you thought His Oneness was adding free birth control to the cost of ObamaCare because he really,  really cares about women and babies,  he was actually  paying off Big Pharma.

Happy Obama Day!

Our glorious leader has given us all a birthday present — for the first time in history,   S&P has downgraded  the U.S. credit rating.   Remember that Treasury Secretary Geithner said,  way back in April,  that we were in  no danger  of losing our credit rating standard  (h/t to Drudge,  who saved me from having to find the quote).

Of course,  His Oneness  is claiming   “serious errors”  in the S&P report.

Naturally,  the downgrade could not possibly have anything to do with the fact that most of the debt  ceiling increase  was eaten up in a single day.  Or perhaps the objection was to hearing that  a record 45.8 million  people are now on food stamps.
