If you’ve been watching the news on dish network lately, then you know President Obama is in the hot seat right now with his failure to create jobs, his possibly criminal mismanagement of tax payer dollars in bogus investment schemes (think Solyndra), and still betting high that voters might buy his bologna yet again in 2012.  That is, if anyone can still afford bologna with the economy as messed up as it is right now.  These are desperate times, and you know what they say:  ”desperate times call for desperate measures.”
