President Fussbudget Uses the Awesome Power of His Weekly Address That Nobody Watches to Plead for His Electoral Future

See what I did there?

Passing legislation is wasting time. You must pass legislation that does not bear the mark of your extremists, that does not address Washington's reckless spending, that allows us to continue to buy votes with your money.

Anything less would be irresponsible. And threaten (litany begins), Social Security Checks, Veterans, and Our Sacred Obligations to Federal Contractors*.

*full disclosure, I have some skin in the game on that last one.

I've watched Presidents use the bully pulpit for a long time. Can't remember the last time I saw one use it to say "I need this to get re-elected."

Maybe Nixon.

Anyway, whiny request for credit line increase below the fold.

Later this weekend we can talk some football, if anyone's so inclined.
