Stimulus Pussy Thankful For Job Creation

Stimulus Pussy says: "Thanks, President Obama"

By the power of Keynes and the make-work fallacy, this cat, Sissypuss, is employed. New advances / relaxations in requirements for the geo-location (this job is in a non-existent district in the 54th state), and species (the cat’s staff swears she has the personality of Barbara Boxer combined with the intellect of Nancy Pelosi) have enabled yet another unprecedented economic success for the Obama administration.
This blog repeats its clarion call for the right-o-sphere to quit pickin’ on the poor POTUS and, instead, rejoice in the knowledge that, if we all just visualize improvement together, good things might come. Please?

Update: there has been a call in the comments for a little soundtrack action in support of this post.  Ever the obliging blog, we proudly present American Alpha-male All-star Ted Nugent in his Cal Jam II reading of Cat Scratch Fever:

Amazing.  Is that version really 32 years old?  I recall seeing it, perhaps live, when I was just a little squid.

Update: Instalanche!

    Good you have the video. Because the words “stimulus pussy” alone do not invoke the same image.

    Uh yeah…
    How are you guys doing with that small-business jobs bill?
    Ever get around to wanting to do something about that?
    I know, I know…you all want this economy to tank so desperately, it’s killing you that it hasn’t happened fast enough.
    Hey, maybe a little “lifting of the American spirit” will do the job! Who would’ve thought that the answers to America’s problems would fit into the palm of one’s hands…
    Oh and for the record, to those who are really trying to dismiss the hand-gate embarrassment by trying to pretend that they were crib notes for her speech: the things written on her hand were answers she used during the Q&A.How did she know she was gonna get that question? Hmmm…..
    Major Fail!!!
    Then again so is everything Cons try their “hands” at…

    Cat Scratch Fever is OK. But since we’re talking about the Stimulus Package, the go-to tune should be Wacky Sax (Bennie Hill fans would recognize it).

    Send me the video and I’ll see what I can do.

    I suppose it could have been worse. We could have had GoreKat and “A Totally Inconvenient U.S. Constitution”
