Maybe the Mayans were right and we’re all too apathetic to notice that the world really has come to an end.

We are no longer facing the fiscal cliff…We’ve officially gone over it, for now. Today, maybe tomorrow or perhaps later in the week, the House will attempt something only seen previously in cartoons…Hanging in mid-air, turning around and trying to run back to safety before gravity sets in.

Last night, the senate passed a sort of, almost, not really fix for the fiscal crisis in that it included no spending cuts, doesn’t deal at all with sequester and only raises taxes on those making $400k per year.

The house hasn’t voted yet, and they might not like it at all since they didn’t like it when the tax hikes hit those making a million or more.

Given the fact that congress has a single digit approval rating, they waited until AFTER the last minute to do anything on this fiscal cliff issue and the senate hasn’t passed a budget in 1400 days or so…

Naturally they all deserve a raise.

Right?

I mean, we’re now 16.4 TRILLION dollars in debt, taxes are going up, spending is NOT going down and Congress  is basically waiving the white flag so…Obama signs an executive order giving them all a raise.

That ONLY makes sense if the world actually HAS ended…Right?

$16.4 trillion dollars in debt…

It seems like we were only in debt by $16 trillion just 3 or 4 months ago.

In fact, it was September 4^th that we officially hit the $16 TRILLION dollar mark which means that we have, as a nation, spent $400 BILLION DOLLARS in a few days short of 4 months. That’s more than $100 BILLION DOLLARS PER MONTH.

That “.4” is important because that means that we have, once again, hit the debt ceiling limit.

Back when Obama was a senator, HE said raising the debt ceiling was a sign of poor leadership but that was before HE found out how much fun spending money that belongs to other people really is.

Obama has raised poor leadership to an art form and now, it seems he wants his work to hang in the Louvre.

Congress, who Obama complained about for the last 4 years and just a few days ago, in the dark of night, gave a raise to will engage in another pie fight in the next couple of months as Tim Geithner, the tax cheat who runs the treasury, tries to rob Peter to spend on Paul.

Would THAT all be happening had the world not actually ended?

Yesterday, before the senate voted on whatever it is they voted on, Obama held a victory rally complete with socialists cheering a tax hike.

AFTER the senate passed whatever it was, even THEY admitted it was far, far from ideal.

So let me get this straight…

The senate passed a bill they didn’t really like…The house hasn’t even looked at it yet, we’re completely out of other people’s money, congress got a raise and Obama is taking a victory lap while socialists are cheering and applauding.

Really?

The world is still here???

Somebody needs to explain to the punch-drunk Emperor, the difference between a spending problem and having no problem spending.

Meanwhile, some destructive nut-case goes on a rampage and the socialist answer is that we have too many rights. They say some of those rights MUST be taken away and that inanimate objects are the killers.

Let me explain a mindset that could only exist if the world no longer does.

Socialists will tell you that if some evil bastard kills 20 people in a school or a movie theater, it’s a massacre.

Socialists will also tell you, with emphasis, that should the lives of 20 people be taken at a Planned Parenthood clinic…It’s a CHOICE and that we, the taxpayers, should be paying for that choice.

Or…

One of the key vermin responsible for the terrorist murders of 4 Americans whom the Emperor matter of factly stated we were going to get and bring to justice, was last seen by reporters, sitting at a sidewalk café, in the very city where the attacks occurred, sipping strawberry frappes while the guy who made a silly You Tube video that the Emperor lied and said was responsible for the attacks, was arrested and still sits in prison.

Meanwhile, our new army manual says we can’t call terrorists, “terrorists” anymore because it might hurt their feelings.

Are we SURE the world didn’t come to an end???

It’s not just us either.

In North Korea, THEIR Emperor won’t let you talk on a cell phone, in Egypt a democratic election led to a new Dictator, Iran wants to wipe Israel off the map and nobody is stopping them from building the weapons to do it.

The United Nations is bust handing out imaginary statehood certificates to terrorist organizations, The Dictator in Syria is doing exactly what got the Dictator in Libya killed and displayed in a grocery store meat locker, Europe is hanging by a thread because they realized too late that THEY ran out of other people’s money and all over the world, people gathered last night to ring in yet another year of madness.

It’s not so much that the Mayans were wrong about December 21^st 2012, it’s just that they must have obviously lost interest in the calendar.

If they really COULD see into the future, surely they saw what was happening by the end of last year and thought…”Well…By the end of 2012, the whole world will be going to hell in a Mayan handbag…If they’re gonna act THAT stupid…Why bother???”

Who can blame them?

Suddenly…Ritual sacrifice and playing soccer using the head of your enemy as the ball doesn’t seem so barbarically backwards.

It wasn’t the fiscal cliff upon we were focused that was going to cause the problem, it was officially going over the sanity cliff that is going to doom us.

Welcome to 2013…The year the Mayans saw coming but couldn’t bring themselves to tell you about.
