Uncle Sam's Lament - Two Trillion Tons

Uncle Sam warns us that Barack Obama's economic stimulus plan and budget could be hazardous to our economic well-being. Jim Gossett and Lars Larson wrote the lyrics for "Two Trillion Tons" for the Lars Larson Show on Westwood One Radio Network. NOTICE: Until recently I had a very popular video on my channel called "Two Trillion Tons - by the Ghost of Tennessee Ernie Ford". TEF Enterprises, LP ordered the video removed because I was using the name and image of Tennessee Ernie Ford without their permission. That video has been replaced by this video (same song with a different singer). My apologies to those who appreciated and commented on or rated the video as it originally appeared. Thanks for your support.

Well! Well! Well! And, WHO put the US citizens (in fact almost every citizens on earth) in this predicament? WHO? The proud American CONSERVATIVES like G. W. BUSH? Maybe a depression might have been better, hey? Are some people clueless or what, unless of course this polished video comes from the CONS themselves! :)

This "polished video" comes from a humble amateur. Before I made videos ridiculing Obama I made videos ridiculing Bush. It's easy to blame Bush for everything but its about time for Obama to start taking ownership and he would do well to remember that jobs and the economy are number ONE and it may be time to back off a bit on some of his Liberal agenda items (health care) and put his energy where it will do some good (work on restoring employment). We don;t need another SPECIAL COMMISSION.

[pjcd1961]

Take ownership? Jeesh! 8 years of mismanagement and almost the first depression on 80 years! Is that a walk in the park? You do know that is health care reform save money! If you don't, google it.

[HerBunk]

The health care plan is whatever Obama says it is on the day that he says it. Medicare and Social Security are smaller government programs than a full takeover of health care and both are about to go bankrupt. Health care will not improve that situation. Barack promised us that he would fix EVERYTHING when he campaigned. He's failed to deliver anything. Bush did not destroy the economy alone. A liberal congress wreaked havoc on mortgages, Weak regulation of wall street and a war did the rest.

Look folks all of the career politicians in Washington are to blame for this whole mess. If they actually listened to THE PEOPLE instead of filling their pockets we wouldnt be here right now. THROW THE BUMS OUT:EVERY SINGLE ONE!!

mtpleasantcane, that is 9 TRILLION dollars with a "T" not billions.

Anyone who thinks we will be able to pay off the 20 TRILLION DOLLAR DEBT we will have by 2019 needs a lobotomy. My great great great grandchildren will STILL be paying on it when I have been turned into compost, and THAT you can blame on all politicians, but ESPECIALLY the socialist bastards in power right now!!

Actually, 'money' is not what people think it is. Really doesn't exist, never has completely. Paper money is a 'promissory' note. One of the few market guarantees left in America. It IS a symbol.

@pjcd1961 Except Bush wasn't a conservative. He spent like a liberal. It was his liberal policies that burned us, yes. And it was Obama's socialist policies that literally quadrupled the problem. But nevermind all that.

@pjcd1961 First depression in 80 years? What do you think a recession is? It's a fancy word dreamed up by the gov. so we the american public can go on watching Dancing and forget the politicians are running this country into massive debt.

@furball79 Hey dipwad. Who deregulated the banks? Slick Willie that's who.  W who is one of the dumbest individuals I have ever had the displeasure to know did try to get the banks regulated again but the Democratic congress wouldn't let him. It happened on W's watch but was coming for a long time.

@HerBunk I have to appreciate how passionate Americans are about their politics and their country in general. However, looking in from the outside your political system has simply been corrupted by lobbyist & corporate greed and is ineffective.

You blame Obama for not delivering what he promised but in reality that's the democratic process we so love in action... which is also known as compromising.
