College loans? Don't fall for the oike-doke

Barack Obama thinks he can inspire the young voters with a few crumbs of bread.  He thinks calling for legislation to keep low interest rates on college loans (college loans yet to be issued) will win him support.

His campaign really is as craven as it is stupid.


When you're 19 and 20, the world awaits you.  You will overcome, you tell yourself.

6.5% interest rate?  12% interest rate?  What does it matter because when you get that degree, better believe it, you are going to set the world on fire!

It doesn't really matter to that age group.

The group it matters to is the group Barack's pissed off with his latest oike-doke.

That would be the millions of Americans who are paying off student loans.  Some have their wages garnished.  Some have their IRS refunds garnished.  Some are barely able to survive because so much of their earnings each week go to student loans.

And Barack's not doing a damn thing for them.

Not proposing a damn thing for them.


They are the one who understand how interest rates add up and hurt.

And he's doing nothing.

While pompously pretending to help.
