War on Profits. . . .

According to moonbattery.com:

From a press conference last week:

Q. A lot of the polling suggests that the problems that Democrats have had in places like New Jersey and Virginia, as well as Massachusetts, is based on public dislike of what they perceive to be the health care plan, and you're not getting any traction in places like Massachusetts. You got a candidate who was perceived to be a run-away -- a walk-away winner who is now in danger of losing. What's wrong with your message?

MR. GIBBS: Well, that's why we have elections. That's why we have elections. We're not on the ballot in -- there's a campaign that's going on in Massachusetts. We're happy to lend our support. And I think as you heard the President say yesterday, we're going to get health care done, and we'll be happy to have a campaign on whether you're for the status quo, whether you're for protecting insurance industry profits, whether you're for protecting bank company profits, or whether you're on the side of the American people. We'll be happy to have that -- we'll be happy to have that --

Well, Gibby, American people who aren't economic blockheads, boneheads, dimwits, dunces, imbeciles, pinheads, simpletons, or Democrat economic advisers understand that profits are good things. Companies making profits can give people jobs. Companies that aren't making profits lay people off. And companies making big profits can hire lots of people.

And this is why your "War on profits" approach to economic management is doomed to failure.

Dumb ass.
