Brian “Mr. Obvious” Deese a.k.a Car Comrade
In an amazing display of either incompetence or lack of economic intelligence, President Obama's administration has filled its apparent gap of economic intelligence with the equally amazing brilliance of Brian Deese. Mr. Deese has attained the position of de facto “Car Czar” (finally the title of Czar is making sense in our government...all of this has a Russian undertone...though Car Comrade would be more befitting) with his impressively brilliant analysis.
His awe inspiring analysis is just something you can not find in this administration, it simply vitiates all other economic advice going to the President. Our President needs this omniscient college student's knowledge. Seriously, he is known for such acts of brilliance like suggesting we allow a fiscally viable company (Fiat) to buy the assets of a faltering company (Chrysler) as opposed to the government usurping all the insolvent assets...UNEQUIVOCALLY BRILLIANT!!!
“A month ago, when the administration was divided over whether to support Fiat’s bid to take over much of Chrysler, it was Mr. Deese who spoke out strongly against simply letting the company go into liquidation,” David Sanger-The New York Times
Then, even though he tried to come through for the administration, he had to advise them on a policy destroying, earth shattering and unthinkable reality that GM and Chrysler were going to go bankrupt.
“ Every time Mr. Deese ran the numbers on G.M. and Chrysler, he came back with the now-obvious conclusion that neither was a viable business” David Sanger-The New York Times
How did he come up with that?....Truly a “prodigy.”
In all seriousness, I have no beef with a meteoric rise of a staffer, but people lets put this in perspective. With little more than an a half hour's worth of unbiased education, my first grade daughter deduced the same conclusions. Company with money buys company with no money. Companies not making money, and giving out more money and benefits then it can afford is going to lose money, and go bankrupt.
There are several issues with this article. How pathetic is the Obama economic team that Brian “Mr. Obvious” Deese assumes the mantle of the come-all be-all Car Comrade? How pathetic is David Sanger? Where was his journalistic integrity when reporting this? Why did he try to cast it as a feel good story? Especially when it is an obvious sign of a lack in economic intelligence for the Obama administration. Was it his exalting regard of the Obama administration? One is only left to ponder...
It is frightening to realize that not only is our government out right fornicating with socialism, (we now have more money invested in state-run entities then Cuba and Venezuela combined) it is being driven by anyone that shows up sleeping in his car looking for government job, that has the economic integrity of my seven year old daughter.
