Question by aldaplumber: What did Obama’s press secretary mean by this?
Rahm Emanuel’s comment that happened on Wednesday.
He was speaking to the Wall Street Journal and he made this comment about the economy. He said this with a big smile on his face…
He said quote: “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste, and what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things that you didn’t think you could do before.”
Read those words slowly…”You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. We can do things we couldn’t do before.”
Who’s out there saying this?
Is it Russia, is it Venezuela, is it the Middle East, is it extremists, is it anarchists here in America, is it the United Nations, NO ! It’s our own Progressives here in America that would like to overturn much of the Constitution, that would like to change America into a socialistic state?
Who is it?
What is it?
I will tell you that my gut tells me that what’s happening in the market right now is people know what I’ve known for a long time. There is no turning this back.
We have hit the debt limit.
This whole thing, with the bailouts and everything else, was designed to slow it down, I believe, to slow everything down so you could get a handle on what’s coming our way, so you could be prepared.
Well, are you preparing?
Because what I believe is happening in the market is others are preparing.
Those who have gigantic power and gigantic access to gigantic sums of money, they are preparing.
I don’t think people are doing the best for the country anymore, I don’t think they’re doing the best for their own businesses anymore.
I wonder if they’re not doing the best for some other goal of just survival: Let us be one of the ones that actually survive; we’re going to be able to have whatever power, whatever money we need to be able to survive.
The whole world could change.
Are we are entering a brown shirt time?
I remember Obama refusing to take questions from certain reporters.
I remember him refusing to allow certain reporters to travel with his campaign.
I also remember him talk about changes…
I feel that changes are indeed coming.
God help us all.
If our economy collapses, what happens to our mortgages, our installment loans?
Should we not worry about paying debts, just stocking up on food and fire wood?
Ok, maybe a little bit of drama but what about the ‘fairness doctrine’ that the dems are pushing?
Isn’t that ‘big brotherish’?
I mean, the government will dictate radio programming?
Maybe I am seeing a pattern before you do?
I am just connecting dots…
Of course…press secretarynothing…………..
Chief of Staff…my bad…

Emanuel will be his chief of staff, not his press secretary. He meant that since we have a disaster we should use this chance to make some major changes for the betterment of all.
Obama had Fox News on his campaign plane–there was only room for so many, and they were rotated. Where are you getting YOUR information?
You are being sensationalistic, and that is VERY bad for the country. AND a bit drama-queen, actually.

“best canned food for survival”

It means “Watch out. We’re gonna get you scared by making everything a crisis.” Then you will allow the Obama team to “%$#@ up the country” as he said on camera this week.
Americans over react in a crisis, just an example. Auto bail out “going to lose millions of jobs if they don’t get the money” They said the same thing about the steel industry,the textile industry, even the electronics industry. Jobs were lost, but we survived. Very little of the auto industry is located in this country now. Only thing left is the assembly plants.
